On a bar, but on the smith machine, just so i didnt' have to pick it straight from the floor..

I'm glad my routine ok

! deffenlty feeling and seeing improvements, and weight are going up!

Me personally thinks 120kg shrugs is tooooo much, dont get me wrong but i could do it, but i would rather drop the weights and then your would have proper form with a really good squeeze at the top..but its your choice . At the mo i'm using db"s at 30kg each

Okk, i might drop teh weight abit then, i do really need build my trapezius for rugby, i felt it was my limit but with a good squeeze.. i'll have a go at droping it and see if i can extend up more..

Thanks for the advice

Ok, still might just try lowering the weight for a couple and see if i can lift it higher, and if i can't then i'l carry on working up from 120kg.

Cheers
