How do I make these things grow really big, this is what I understand so far. >Traps have the most amount of androgen receptors, which means you have to have alot of androgens in your body to see them get fucking huge >Traps help with squats >Deadlifts work traps to some extent?? >Power cleans work them >Shrugs work them??
I understand now that traps are like calfs, somehow they are really hard to grow. For those of you who started out with no traps and gained traps not through the use of roids, what routines/excersises did yall do to make your traps grow?
When doing deadlifts, shrugs, rackpulls or any similar exercise, have you shoulder hang very low, as low as they will go and you should feel it in your traps (it will be obvious if you are doing it right you can even try it right now without weights) once you figure this out do deadlifts/rackpulls in this position the whole time, and shrugs start off in this position each rep

I don't wanna watch a15 minute video, just tell me
Jose Campbell
these are both the right way
you should already be doing deadlifts with high volume (no 1x5 meme shit), which hit your traps
add in romanian deadlifts and heavy rack pulls or deadlift from boxes from just below or just at the knees (these are fantastic for deadlift assistance if you do conventional and lose velocity around your knees), and your traps are already getting a huge amount of stimulation just as a byproduct of your deadlift training
now add in controlled shrugs with lighter weights, and your traps are covered
Bro Tip do shrugs only one side at a time for increased range of motion and better gains
Evan Sullivan
Rack pulls are great for the lower back too, right?
I was doing those instead of deadlifts to take the legs out of it.
Charles Fisher
depends on the pin height, if you do them mostly for traps you should have the bar at or slightly above the knee and that takes out a bit of lower back.
if you have lower pins you would still have quite some lower back involvement. They involve lower back but arent specifically exercises to build the lower back. If you want to focus on your lower back do Stiff Legged Deadlifts or Hyperextensions with weight (like Pete Rubish does them).
Hunter Gomez
is jason momoa natty? specifically at 1:20, he have a lot of back/arms definition but he's not too cut. Could he be natty?
Angel Price
My traps puffed out real quickly when I started doing loaded carries
Parker Morales
Bro looks like hes about to pop a lig
Elijah Foster
I will definitely keep this in mind. Thanks for the video, user.

>implying crossfit gets you big
Connor Nelson
I think he is. I think he has that mass for over a decade now. he now has definition for aquaman.
When he was Drogo, he had zero definition, but he was big.

Maybe you're just weak...
Upper: Shrugs, deadlifts
Lower: Rows of all sorts
Mid: mix of the above
Joseph Hall
1x5 deadlifts 3x5 low bar squats 3x3 (power) cleans 3x5 military press 3x5 rows 5xF pull-ups
If you do this 5 times a week you will get massive traps guaranteed.
Austin Walker
deadlifts and dumbbell rows worked best for me
Kevin Scott
Kek. Is that the pizza fucker or the trap fucker

Jaxson Martin
Best trap exercises are undeniably shrugs and cleans. Diddlies are ok, but shouldn't be your primary work.
Gavin Flores
frront squat for lower traps highpulls power clean for upper traps farmers walk twice a week
Joseph Cook
I believe it was already discussed that Longbow Pulls would sufficiently work your Trapezius
Isaiah Sanders
Longbow pulls? What are those? Never heard of them desu
Isaac Rodriguez
desu
Luke Foster
triple trips come to me
Nathan Jackson
oh god
Blake White
overhead press, full extension and shrug your shoulders at the top to get the most for your traps.
