I tried 2 exercises I learned about on this site that have worked great for my traps:
1. Nekrawulf had, in one of his earliest posts in the training forum, talked about cable rows with elbows flared out instead of being held close to the body. Similar I think in effect to wide grip cable rows that SC described in this thread (I don't have wide grip bar in my gym, so I have not tried that variation)
2. machine shrugs on the standing calf raise machine that Gumbo described in this thread. I tried it for the first time this week - what a burn!
Thanks Nekrawulf, SC and Gumbo!
