      Thick Traps

      Heavy deadlifts, heavy rack pulls and heavy shrugs will work.

      I normally start with just under my working set for deadlifts and keep reps around 8+ and I work my way up to just shy of my one rep max for deadlifts for low reps such as 3-6.

      Heavy weight seems to be the best way to get most peoples traps to grow.
