Right way of doing shruggs

[_GRIG_]

What is the better way of doing shruggs? I sometimesto them with a rotation of the shoulders, and sometimes just raisethe shoulders straight – which way is the most effective?

Although the circular movements will employ more muscles, there are higher chances of injury. Therefore, it is best to keep those movements straight, and look for the additional benefits of the circular movements in a different exercise.

let me give you the best advice for building traps.

CLEANS. it is something nobody talks about because these days all the young guys are obsessed with mirin themselves in the mirror, but cleans will build blocks of traps

You can also bend slightly forward to hit a different angle. I don't directly work traps anymore. I just find that deadlifts is more than enough.
