[Traps]

3/6/2004 Traps/Forearms

I conentrated on form, and made sure to focus on feeling the muscle contraction through the entire range of motion. For shrugs, at the peak contraction I would "hold" the weight for a second or two, the entire time at the peak contraction I would try to pull the weight up higher, not just hold it at its current position.
