Trap Gains Without the Fluff
I used to skip trap workouts, thinking shrugs were enough. Turns out, building strong traps is about more than just looking jacked—it helps with posture and lifts, too.
🔸 Hit traps twice a week. Any more and you’re just asking for soreness, not gains. Rest 3 days between sessions so your muscles actually recover.
🔸 Stick to 8 trap exercises per workout. Mix it up—shrugs, farmer’s walks, face pulls, and bent-over rows are all solid. If you’re new, start with 4-5 moves and build up.
🔸 Go lighter on weights and focus on slow, controlled reps. Squeeze your shoulder blades together every time. If you’re jerking the weights, drop down and nail your form first.
🔸 Use gloves or wrist straps if your grip gives out before your traps do. But don’t let that be an excuse to ego-lift.
Keep it simple, keep it consistent, and your traps will catch up fast.
