chest-supported Kelso Shrugs (i.e. horizontal shrugs) are the absolute best way to stimulate your traps and they mog your vertical shrugs, deadlifts, farmer’s carries, upper back rows etc. to Gandy and back, and Kelso was an absolute fucking genius.Literally all you need for traps is a kelso shrug and a y-raise and you chilling.Kelsos need to get more mainstream because I am tired of gymcels thinking I am egolifting on rows and also Kelso deserves recognition (Rest in Peace)
Also this is a link to download Paul Kelso’s book on shrugs for free https://www.scribd.com/doc/149373178/Kelso-s-Shrug-Bookidk if it is piracy or not, but i dont care, since Paul Kelso has passed and his knowledge needs to be passed on to as many people as possible
This is the book’s cover. Take the kelsopill, anons. you won’t regret it, and your only issue will be that your traps get too big.Kelsos allowed me to properly train my upper back while I was suffering from an irritated and injured supraspinatus. Upper back rows would have snapped my supra, whereas Kelsos stimulated my traps more effectively than upper back rows would have. they also worked synergistically with my PT rotator cuff rehab exercises (and other exercises like serratus punches and y-raises), to help heal my injury. now my shoulder is fully cured, as confirmed by the radiologist who read my latest MRI scan.
>>77524578Absolutely. If you don't have a chest-supported t-bar or anything like that you can use a cable row and support your hip on the bench and do them single-handed.Also on a lat pulldown, although then it targets lower traps and you will go up to the full stack in a couple of months.
>>77524578may we please see your back good sir? such a claim must be substantiated with sufficient evidence.

>>77526460what is the main function of the trapezius muscle you retarded fucking nigger? its scapular retraction. kelso shrugs are a pure scapular retraction movement, a pure trapezius isolation movement in the same way that scapular protraction, i.e. serratus punches, is the best way to isolate the serratus anterior
>>77526460bro doesnt perform elbow flexion (any curl variation) because anybody who isolates a muscle through its main function is not serious about lifting, the biceps will just grow from rowing. no spinal flexion for the abs, no spinal extension for the erector spinae, they will just grow isometrically from squats and deadlifts. no shoulder flexion for the anterior delts, no shoulder abduction for the medial deltoid. if you isolate any of your muscles through their main function you are not serious about lifting bro
