@julian671 Aswell as the dumbell shrug which I think is the best personally, its worth having a go at this exercise. Stand straight, dumbells by your sides, then raise your arms up making a "T" like stance. Hold for 2 seconds and slowly put the dumbells to rest at your sides, and repeat.

@julian671 hold two heavy dumbells at your sides. then raise your shoulders up and try to touch your ears with them while keeping your arms straight throughout the motion. dumbell shrug. It's probably the best exercise for building mass on the traps.

well.. maybe you're right :P:P I tried it and this exercise actually works your back and chest, at least that's what I feld;)
but maybe you DO use your traps but only the lower fibers in stead of the traps you see in your neck;)
but apart from that,, I think this exercise sucks dick:P

Before making any negative comments, it's best to educate yourself. Remember, that there are not absolutes. There are more than one way to do things. Yes the upper, and lower traps run in different directions. Just as the deltoids can be isolated in Anterior, Medial, and Posterior components. Also, think about how performing eccentric exercises "the negatives" also stimulate muscle.

The fibers of the lower traps run in a different direction from the fibers in the upper traps thus a different pattern of motion stimulates them
