Shrugs to the front?

What's the difference between shrugs to the front and shrugs with DBs by your side?

Personaly i like to do them with DB's. I think that DB's hit more of the trap directley. BB tend to involve a lot of front delt and the shoulder is pulled forward. Plus i don't have to worry about my nuts gettin' in the way. Either way you gotta go heavy on them

there is no differance..... i like d/b's better cause of the stretch......

I personally thinks its majorly just preference. I mean I personally prefer dumbbell shrugs because of the stretch and contraction along with the range of motion you can achieve. Many people prefer bb shrugs because of the large amount of weight that can be handled. It all depends bro. Maybe try both and decide what you prefer.

Actually I meant DB shrugs to the front, but I guess that's pretty much a BB shrug.

I think I'll just pick one.... or alternate them. Thx guys

Superset Barbell shrugs with dumbell shrugs. Great gains from those.

That's what I do.

I do dbs for one reason. Bar shrugs force you to lean forward a little which is tough on your lower back. Dbs allow you free range for good form.
