Underrated desu senpai

is this achievable natty? serious question

vitamin S is natty

ManletDestiny does them

Pointless if you're using baby weight like this

My traps are quite nicely developed and I simply can't tire them out with shrugs

High Pulls feel much better

I don't mind them

Always superset shrugs after deadlifts and dumbbell curls, because why not?

none really

You can tell he's been shrugging for a long time with form like that...

Can’t do them with a barbell because my dick gets in the way

*shrugs*
meh...

>not using your dick as a barbell

I've never done shrugs. How am I supposed to do them? More or less weight than deadlift? And can they be done with a mixed grip or do I need to get some wrist straps? Only have a barbell, no trapbar, dumbbells, etc.

Also when should they be done in a program? I assume the main major lift that they could interfere with would be deadlift, and possibly rows and OHP. So do them after deadlifting? Or just any day so long as it's not within 1-2 days of deadlifting?

was about to post this
>nice

Makes sense, but my main reason for doing them is to strengthen my upper back and prevent scapular extension and rounded upper back during deadlifts.

I do em every time I'm in the gym. They're just fun.

y tho

I do dumbell shrugs, shrugs of my last deadlift set, and shrug at each OHP rep

Too much or

Gotta build traps to fuck traps

Dumbest fucking exercise there is

It's impossible not to do weird faces when shrugging

I do both. ROM behind back is fucking shit though. Keep hitting my arse.

I have this problem. My ass is too big from squats and I can't shrug in front of me because I hit my dick or nuts. I've read that you should put your body on a slight angle but then I feel like I start rounding my back when I go heavy. I've just been using 45 pound plates at my sides and it is OK.

I enjoy them, but I hate having to tuck my junk. Wouldn't be able to do them in a public gym.

they do nothing if you use lightweight.
deadlifts help moar

What do instead then?

>mfw I saw someone shrugging in the squat rack last week

>Thoughts on shrugs?

Scrunching head down while holding weights does not equal a shrug.

every time i do DB shrugs it feels like my spine in being compressed but if I do BB shrugs im fine, but my grip gives out on BB shrugs so i have to do them for 12+. fug.

shrugs... i dont know

This. You can shrug at the top of your deadlifts, and if your working weight is too heavy to do that, then you can just do it during your warmup sets.

Theyre good but i find facepulls work better
