Supinated shrugs are one of my favorite trap exercises for builder bigger traps and they activate the traps really well. I learned this move from the legendary trainer Charles Glass. All you need is a pair of dumbbells for this exercise, and you will be going much lighter than doing traditional dumbbell shrugs on this move. Watch the video above carefully!
