I Did 100 “BARBELL SHRUGS” Every Day For 30 Days (MY TRAPS GOT HUGE!) – ScottHermanFitness

by YouTube Team

This is my second experiment with “Nuclei Overload Training” and once again the results did not let me down! My traps and calves are definitely two areas that have never seen this much volume in such a short period of time and I am fairly certain that is the main culprit behind the amount of growth I am seeing.

But regardless of the reason, I am enjoying the challenge and I think for the next experiment I need to try attacking a bodypart that HAS seen a consistent amount of training volume over the course of my lifting career and that is my BACK.

We all know that PULL-UPS are king and since my collab with Austin Dunham I’ve wanted to take my calisthenics to the next level. So I think starting with 100 reps a day of pull-ups is a GREAT place to start.

I would love to see more of you take on this challenge with me! Click the link below to follow my progress and if you make a free GOLD profile on my site you can upload your own photos and do the challenge with me!

I was gonna suggest adding dumbell farmers walks into that routine (heaviest the gym has) as you not only engage the traps to keep your shoulders from sagging forwards but you also end up inadvertently doing mini shrugs every time you take a step in the walk due to the momentum of the weights and you can also do heavier trap/hex bar variations for a more stable but more intense pull. Your traps are also under load much longer per walk than a set of shrugs

if you want traps to grow try rack pulls followed by barbell shrugs straight after!

Can you do NO on biceps and shrugs at the same time?

Reply
Mr X March 27, 2020 - 9:45 am

Don't just momentum up the weight, but keep that tension… To get that extra tension in your upper torso, you should scream BAAAAAAAAAAAHHH, while contracting and BELL, while extending. Your neck is gonna be as veiny and strong looking as Scotts, in no time (or in 30 days).

I’m Irish and I’ve watched your videos for the last 10 years +, big fan. I want to improve my traps, I have that typical weak trap problem that office workers tend to have. Shrugs and rows are part of my program but I also put a high emphasis on pull ups. My question is are pull ups good for trap growth or should I be putting all my focus on shrugs and rows to maximise results. Many thanks

Willis Miranda April 3, 2021 - 2:38 pm

The reps should be slower TUT, use less weight slow, and controlled. You shouldn't train a muscle everyday except for calves.

Nothing new, they called hang pulls.
But its the best excercise indeed, clean/snatch grip hangpulls ftw.

traps are the easiest muscle to grow by far, you shouldnt need some nucleus overload nonesense
