BARBELL SHRUGS

Purpose: To build mass and separation of your trapezius muscles.

Muscles Involved:
Trapezius
While standing, hold a barbell at arm's length in front of you, with an overhand grip about shoulder's width apart.
Simply raise your shoulders as high as you can and hold that position for a moment (Shown here). NOTE: The most common mistake people make when performing shrugs is rotating their shoulders in a circular motion while performing the exercise. THIS IS COMPLETELY INCORRECT AND DANGEROUS. Focus on simply bringing your shoulders straight up and down.
