Seated Shrugs

Though the traps get worked during many other exercises, it is always a good idea to throw in some shrugs for extra stimulus.

When doing this trap exercise, aim to perform 30 seconds time under tension rather than counting reps and squeeze your traps hard at the top of each exercise.
