Traps
- Overlooked Muscles
Twin Peaks
How to Build Mountain-Sized
Traps.
The trap muscles may be one of the
most overlooked components of a bodybuilder's physique,
but by no means, are they of less importance. Without
development in these muscles, the territory between
your neck and shoulders will be nothing more than flat,
barren, terrain.
Trapezius Muscles Exercise
So, in your quest to form those twin
peaks known as your trapezius muscles, hopefully the
following trap-blasting exercises will provide the roadmap
to success.
UPRIGHT ROWS: Take
a barbell into your hands and hold it by your upper
thighs. Have your palms facing you with your thumbs
about six inches apart. Slowly raise the bar toward
your chin as your squeeze your traps. You want your
elbows to rise above the level of the bar. Hold during
the contraction for a beat, then slowly lower to the
starting position. As you lower, stretch your neck upward
so your traps are worked during the negative.
DUMBBELL SHRUGS:
Find a pair of dumbbells of considerable weight and
hold them down at your sides with your palms facing
inward. Find a god posture, back straight, with your
feet close together and perhaps a slight bend in the
knees. Dip your shoulders downward, then pull them straight
up to shrug. Let your shoulders drop slowly, resist
the weight a bit on the negative portion of the motion.
Do not rotate your shoulders as this could result in
injury and does not add any additional impact on muscle
formation.
Remember, most of your shoulder exercises
will hit the traps to a degree, so it would be most
beneficial to couple traps with shoulders within the
same workout.
