Good progress mate.

Are you just showing progress? Or do you want some critique?

bigden · 23-03-2008, 07:57 PM

critique is more than welcome man

The bit that hit me about the photos - and it could just be your posing - was that it looked as though your traps were lagging.

Shoulders and arms look good in the front double bi shot, as does the lat shot and you are looking nice and lean dude.

Everyone will say the same thing though... Wheres the wheels shots....?

and yea a think my traps cud do with abit of work but they seem to be not growing much anymore, shrugs dnt seem to be hitting them as hard anymore, any ideas on other good trap excrsises? as i cud do with a change

Leg Shot......Upright rows

Before you ask upright rows are more for shoulders but I believe they will work your traps also. You could change how you do shrugs to hit differant parts aswell.

Wheels = legs

Heavy deads seem to work my traps well, snatch grip high pulls should also work well.

Most people seem to have a problem with shrug technique which stops them from going heavy. I've a feeling traps are like calves - you really need to work them heavily to get them to grow
