Back, but things like lighter clean pulls where you actively try to get shoulder involvement could also be done on shoulder day
>>
>>76582054
based, db shrugs are a waste of time. Barbell shrugs are a kind of a meme too but loading super heavy and getting an insane stretch is the easiest way to grow upper traps
>>

>clean pulls
>shoulder day
And why exactly are we doing a lower body movement with some trap involvement on a shoulder day? Lol. Pulls are a posterior chain movement, you shouldn't be hitting your delt significantly
>>
they are a dyel exercise
>>
Back. My wife loves my traps for some reason.
>>
>>76582046
Im doing rack pulls for fuller rom and dls/shrugs until grip failure then more the next session or the other.
>>
>>76582046
They aggravate a old rhomboid injury so i swapped them for facepulls
>>
>>76582049
lol

>getting an insane stretch
what do you mean?
>>
>>76583939
Going 30 % higher than your deadlift, letting the weight weigh your arm down, and then using leg drive on the concentric.
>>
>>76583939
letting your traps completely relax instead of keeping them flexed all the time. Equivalent would be going spagetti arms on bicep curls. It sounds dumb but the sensation and results are out of this world

>db shrugs are a meme
>bb shrugs are a mem
oh okay I'll just shrug with my own testicles then you stupid fucking retard
>>
>>76584030
Trap bar is for front, reverse bb is for back traps, db is more of a rehab/joint exercise, nobody does seal row shrugs or pullup shrugs, rack pulls are like upper back dls.
>>
>>76584030
hex bar bro

>>76582060
:D training traps maeks u gay bot :D serratus posterior superior is only muscle u need to train for upper body. :D if u want to be fag homo retard with bloat ass bot then fine
unilateral active HIP ROTATED and engaged lumbar serratus.. :D but u dont know this bot :D
>>
>>76584030
meme in the sense it's a very dyel movement, like cable bicep curls. Anyone with upper big traps built them with DLs, rack pulls, standard back shit instead of isolating them
>>
>>76582046
I do them on my pull days hope this helps :)
>>
>>76582054
I totally forgot about my straps and will do that next shoulder day. Thanks
>>
>>76584046
>:Dposting bot guy uses chatgpt

>>
>>76582046
>splitting your body up into components and dedicating a day to each one

>>

oh my god this is so spot on
>>
I do shrugs for the shrug of it
>>
>>76584356
you know that's someone impersonating bot guy right? They're making a joke that he just goes into chatgpt and asks for the name of a muscle nobody has heard of and how to train it
>>
>>76582046
what does cartoon man do for hamstrings?
>>
>>76583939
Actively using your lats to depress your shoulders as much as possible at the bottom of the movement. It's what I do and my traps have always been good. n=1 I know, but...
>>
>>76582404
Real lifters KNOW to do BB shrugs with a barbell in each hand
