*shrugs* I dunno

Put them on a high volumen hypertrophy programa, make them eat a high calorie, high protein diet and make sure they get 8-9 hours of sleep.
Your traps should get big and juicy in no time sir.

This guy might be onto something

This is the best exercise for traps:

I do it using straps and with a slight forwards lean, after deadlifts, so I don't have to load the bar just for shrugs.

Shrugs are a waste of time. Unless you do Kelso Shrugs.

Upright Rows build Traps the fastest.

but u erased the post bot
and i have to type it out again - just kidding don't care, u get half the detail now, just to test your reactions:

it's a shrug bot, like u quipped yourself here:
>>77054020
>>77054640
setup - broomstick weighed down with power-band hooked low in front of you standing
underhand snatch grip (best for shoulder comfort)
extended thoracic, tucked chin
knees straight and relaxed quads (they won't be relaxed - VMO is working overtime, what u're feeling is rectus femoris relaxed as relaxed sensation of quads)
pelvis pushed forward with flexed abs
pressure to the floor through the inside of the front of the sole
u raise shoulders up in this setup and undulate at the very top (oly weightlifters do similar thing don't they bot?), but not all the way and don't clap scaps together - scaps will grind nerves in-between them otherwise and full shoulder hike is over-straining levator scapulae

and do not be mistaken, this perfect posture if upheld will do traps and neck (head became HEAVY when lifted off pillow lying on the side after), but also knee portion of quad (VMO popped like crazy next morning), and lower gluteus maximus - the part that starts on sacrum, the good looking part , the healthy part, the postural part
so it is very serious full body undulating isometric postural combine harvester apart from doing traps and neck, no u do not do anything else if u've decided to do it
>what?
errything is helt up by muscles even calves get involved unlike regular shrug which is just relying on skeleton integrity in awkward setting to perform
>ok, reps and sets?
no more than 2 undulating isometric holds i'd say, not more often than once a week
>that's ridiculous
it is what it is, pick a different hobby, lifting weights for hypertrophy doesn't take much time lol :D

>>77054016
Do more full rom like reverse narrow grip

Rippetoe's power shrugs are the only way I've found to consistently annihilate my traps, which sucks because I don't love the idea of torturing my spine just to train such a shitty muscle. I used to be able to just shrug dbs or a trap/hex bar and get a skin splitting pump that way but not anymore.

the solution is right here bot:
>>77057267
i love the fact that he can't stand straight and is blabbering of shoulder surgery and such, what a fucking clown, bloated face straight into camera, crazy eyes as if he was doing sth special lol, impeccable posture right after he finishes his "reps" xD
>>77054651
i've responded to this idiocy bot but u erased it as well, ideally this movement i'm describing here would be performed seated but it would require machine of sort or specialty frame so that u aren't doing it with completely twisted spine
that lean forward and bend in elbows makes it yet another lat movement apart from clenching psoas - my thingy:
>>77057267
promostes healthy balance between psoas and abs which act to a large degree as antagonists
however it came out better than i expected standing with glute max and vmo involvement

>blah blah
i'm still testing you bot, that's all there is to it :D
picture is caricature of shrugger bot whipped in response to my musings

>>77057327
>traps
>vital aesthetic muscle
Traps make your frame look narrower. You should train them because leaving body parts untrained is retarded, but it's not a muscle you want to max out. Same as obliques and adductors.

so zyzz was unaesthetic bot?

and that's why u routinely ridicule nigger gymnastics (calisthenics) adepts for their pencil necks ?

there's a reason imbecilic roidoots tend to have big traps, no, it's not the mythical bullshit that there's more roid receptors there - it's because it's so useful muscle group that it's used almost everywhere every-time

and no it doesn't pull shoulders in, well developed muscle, healthy muscle is relaxed and increases range of motion resting tonus is lessened:
>>77046017
stretching is fucking dumb cause u're tugging on injured malformed muscle
the reason muscle is stiff is because u injured it - it's a built in defensive mechanism so that u don't injure yourself deeper

>so how into healthy physiological mobility
unironically it's hypertrophy, when u build big beautiful plates for pecs pulling rubber with protracted shoulder facing anchor point - picture - then it's not stiff at all and INCREASES shoulder mobility

bench pecs on the other hand injured in the sternal area cause pecs can't work with retracted shoulders necessary for bench will be stiff pulling thoracic spine into permanent flexion and rounding shoulders effectively making u look like you're pec-less apart from being very unhealthy and useless functionally

Following the schizo around and making fun of him is ineffective at getting him to go away, it only reinforces his delusion that he is uniquely important and insightful and worthy of persecution.

Never deadlift outside of real life necessity ( which is never pure deadlift anyways lol), git traps with this simple trick
