Trap Training

[Big_Papa_B]

Just wondering when most of you like to train the traps? on Shoulder day or back day?

[gicantor]

Back day for me.

Directly neither . Indirectly both :)

Directly neither . Indirectly both :)

x2 i never train traps directly and they just grow, cant think of a bodybuilder that has traps as there weak point

Directly neither . Indirectly both :)

yep ,,, DEADLIFTS !!

come on...no one on here does shrugs??? I find that hard to believe....

i do them on shoulder day when im training for mass, but when im training for power and strength i hit them indirectly with heavy deads and rows

I throw them in with Shoulders , seems like a natural fit to me ...

[O-Train]

I train the middle/lower portion of my trapezius with a particular kind of row, but never shrugs. I find they arn't necessary when I'm doing deadlifts and stiff-leg deadlifts.

both days for me

Back day at the very end of the workout.

[Delt King]

I'll do a few shrugs on shoulder day...but back day will pretty much tear them up good if you row, row, row and deadlift.

nothing beats hang / power cleans for trap training.

Shrugs have always been a useless exercise to me.

I don't do shrugs either. I find it hilarious watching average joes putting on like 3 plates and shrugging, acting like they are moving big weight lol.
