  | Re: Help with Trapezius muscle workout do you deadlift mate? if not then standing shrugs DB or BB isolate the traps nicley,... i also do a kind of reverse flye/shrug.... like you would do for rear delts, bent over , with db's (or cables)...but squeeze the traps together at the top of the movement. TBH,.. OSC is probly th best guy to ask....he'll have a gem of an exercise in a old book sowewhere...

| Re: Help with Trapezius muscle workout I should have included more info about me, sorry bud. I had back surgery a few years back and dead lifts I am afraid to do, I don't want to put myself out of action. I have read about the hise method on the standing calf machine. I may try that. |

| Re: Help with Trapezius muscle workout ok mate,... well most of what i advised is out then,...lol tho sometimes i do the bent over rear delt thing but laid face down on an inclined bench,... spose this would take out the pressure on the spine,... i reckon even the calf machine shrugs will load up the back mate... be careful and keep all the new exercises light to begin with,...
