~How many reps for Shrugs.?

[TravFlex91]

Yup...makes total sense...that comes with maturity, going to hit shrugs today with back...do exactly what you stated, and just concentrate on the squeeze and stretch, two second holds at the top with good form works real well too.

Nice have a stellar workout bro!
It's rest day for my lazy ass haha.

I always aim for 15 reps when doing my first set of trap exercises. Even at last set I'd hit 12.

as heavy as i can and as many reps.as i can handle for.2 sets.

That sounds like fun! Although I could do some damage with a beer...since I don't drink and even 1 beer would make me feel cocky...and a Caterpillar 420E backhoe, may not be a good thing lmao!

Enjoy your rest day!

anywhere from 20(lighter sets) to 12(heavy). Usually barbell then dumbell, total 6 sets, but with my current back issues, just DB's. 4 sets.

12-15 reps for me - I hold at the top for ~1.5 seconds then down. It's weird because I can do 12-15 reps on a particular weight, go up say 20 lbs.. and only get 3-4 reps with poor form

I haven't done shrugs in years. Heavy deadlifting works great. Any additional trap work would be pointless. Traps are borderline too big just from deadlift

Exactly. I do no shrugs at all anymore, but heavy deads still make my traps grow at a fast rate
