There are so many trap exercises, but which ones should you be focusing your efforts on if you want to build bigger traps and increase your strength?

These are in the video. Furthermore, if there is a steep learning curve to the movement or it is too equipment reliant then it may mot rank as high as some other options that are better and also don’t require as many resources. With that being said, we start laying out the list and work our way up the rankings from the worst trap exercise to the best trap exercise. WORST 1. Upright Rows 2. Rolling Shrugs 3. Above the Knee Rack Pulls The upright row is and always will be at the bottom of the list for me. Not only does it place your shoulder joint at increased risk of injury but there are simply much better and safer options. For these reasons it belongs in the worst category. The rolling shrugs being in the worst chest exercise category might surprise some as this how they've always done or were taught how to do shrugs. However, the safety of the shoulders is important and that's why rolling shrugs will always be in the worst category for me.
