trap excersize?

[jcp2]

They actually work for me, I do 25-30 reps with them currently. They aren't really a complete trap workout on their own though, hopefully deads will fix the rest for people. I was doing scapular retractions (sometimes known as Keslo shrugs) for awhile but not convinced that they did much for me.

They do seem to work for some, but i rarely see anyones traps growing, that is until they start lifting big weights, usually deads. My old training partner did heavy shrugs for years, he had abosolutely no trap development, about three or four months of deadlifting every week, and his shoulders and traps had a completely different shape to them.
