What else besides shrugs for traps

[jso123]

Anyone have any other good excerises for traps other than shrugs and upright rows?

Deads. They blow mine up so well I don't even work them out anymore.

All of the OL lifts.

The only time I have any traps is when I deadlift heavy

Agreed. Deads punish my traps in a big way.
I love upright rows as well.

Genetics...
The only thing I do is deads, but my traps were pretty large(in comparison to the rest of my body) even before I started deadlifting....
I only wish my pecs and bi's grew like my traps

Heavy Rack Pulls.. I feel my traps a whole lot more that even on full deads.. I assume because I can go quite a bit heavier.

Deads and heavy rows.

Don't forget that your traps go down to the middle of your back, and all the way across to your shoulderblades. You can stimulate the muscle best by training all parts of it...not just that little hump up by your neck.
