i do traditional trap shrug and mine are huge! this is a shitty exercise………..
snap city
love the smooth pits 😉
holy shit. trying this tomorrow
Did this exercise for 1 week/ my shoulders are off the hook. It works.
Awesome video!! Going to try this immediately. Keep em coming!!
My traps just grow and I don't train them directy at all haha. At least relative to the rest of my upper body they are big, which isn't saying much for me.
This exercise is perfect when yo have depressed scapula because if you have that, when you perform traditional shrug, you do most of the work with the elevator of the scapula and not with your upper trap. And the elevator of the scapula is a usual source of neck pain when you have depressed scapula.
You 'snap city' morons don't know the first thing about lifting. You probably are gonna snap your shit up but it has nothing to do with your choice of exercise.
Added these into my routine yesterday alongside regular barbell shrugs. This is going to be a staple for me.
I did this and it made my shoulders tight/sore/inflamed what does this mean?
Initially I thought was a girl doing this exercise. Sounds like an idiot, looks like a girl.
"If you notice pain while doing it, don't do it, it means your shoulders are FUCKED, and you need to get that shit investigated." lmao
hay man, thanks for the video – gotta say I thought this was weird and awkward as hell the first couple of times I tried the lift, but now I love it. Really do feel it in my traps now, but the first few times, I thought I was just fucking up lol.
sitting down is way better
Looking like a steroid girl 😀
"WHICH WE AINT ABOUT" hahahaha
good vidoe, i liked the video
only 1 exercise show some other …exercise
so overhead shrug should fix posture and forward shoulder issue ? if the exercise is done correctly right?
out of curiosity what kind of weight do you work with in this exercise? you mention one option was to work from the 10-12 rep range but is There a certain weight I shouldn't go past? example, would 135 be unnecessarily heavy for this exercise?
It differently effective
thought the person in the pink was a girl, straight up
so this is the reason why I feel a lot on my traps if I do one arm handstands and stuff. it's a heavyweight OVERHEAD SHRUG!
😂😂😂😂 "If your shoulders hurt.. Stop Because you're FUCK!!.. Get that shit investigated" 😂😂😂
Super helpful. Thanks! Just the info I was looking for.
On push or pull day tho?
Why is this snap city??
Congruent, new word thanks.
"Its a trap"! haha classic line!
Thought this was a really strong girl at first
Bro, do you shave your armpits, or does hair just not grow there for you?
Doing these for an imbalance in my left shoulder for internal rotation, started at bar (Olympic) and only threw on 5 lbs and up to 10lbs for final set. Any idea how many times a week to do this ? Gonna add 5lbs as stability comes. Also I’ve heard rack pulls from the top of the quads focusing on the tightening the shoulder up and back at the point of lock. Any advice if that motion is helpful to do as well ? Should I combine them ? Also you’re a beast and i appreciate you sharing your journey man. Thx
Why is the left shoulder doing an internal rotation at the top position of the barbell? The right side not doing it. Visible around 1:18
Oh I gotta try those
Hey Omar, it is possible to do this same exercise in a pulling manner rather than pressing manner by simply hanging from an overhead chinning bar and using a short pulling motion while maintaining straight arms? Thanks for a great channel!
As someone with voeractive upper traps, I take offense to this. I can't row, bench, deadlift, chest press or thumb wrestling without using my traps.
dang Omar was handsome in '13
Isn’t this a pull exercise not a push ?
