That is one thing i have to really keep an eye on in my training.It seems like only a matter of weeks and boom,they tend to overide my whole shoulder development.
I think it was Cormier who said once that he has to train traps pretty much low key coz they literally grow like weeds in no time.

yep, if I'm not careful, I have no neck. That's from deadlifts, in my case.

My triceps are like that. I can train them once a month and they would grow better than any other muscle.

I have that problem from years of focusing on cleans, snatches and deadlifts. It's really hard to find dress shirts that fit. I read that your neck size should be the same as your upper arm measurements. That is definately not my ratio, though it has gotten alot better since I scrapped the Olympic lifting and focused on bodybuilding.

I have the same problem.
If I work out my traps, they get disproportionately bigger than my shoulders.
I haven't done a "traps-only" exercise in years.

F**k all you guys.LOL, My traps won't grow for shit. I don't have a problem with any other body part, just traps. I feel like without big traps, you just don't appear as big. I wish I had your problem. I guess it just goes to show that you can't have everything.

I've been asked how I got my traps so big, and I don't know if this is true but when I learned how to really flex them you can target the muscle better in your workout. I tried to teach some people to flex them without shrugging their shoulders, but some people can only learn to flex one. It takes some practice. Try that to make em grow.

I can't even train my traps. If I do, they outgrow my shoulders. One semester at school, I had a hard time keeping my damn backpack on right, because the straps kept wanting to slide down.

Mine grow just by looking at them. I'm female, and my shoulders are really big all over. I have to buy clothes 1 or 2 sizes up so that I can get my shoulders in. I like it, just wish my arms would grow in proportion with them.

Mine get hit from:
deadlifts, stiff leggs, clean & press, snatch, high pulls, crucifix holds, tire flips, farmer's walk, etc...

Why complain? Why not have crazy looking traps?
