Both.

Traps can easily be trained twice a week.

Shoulders just cause i am dead after back!


Shoulders seems a better combo for me.

Performing them with shoulders feels mentally better.

Definitely both unless you're a natural behemoth who doesn't need to train them at all.

I like to switch up, today I did back though and traps....killer.  I havent done deads in a while and I started my day with them today and finished with db shrugs, damn I'm tired.

If I wanna hit 'em directly(which i dont feel like doing too often) I just like to save time by just shrugging on top when doing deads..I dont even do shrugs otherwise

i do shrugs with shoulders...they get worked with deadlifts on back day.

you know, now that i think about. i really hit it both shoulders and back. bc i do upright rows for my side lateral head. but targeting traps is not the pointwhen i do uprights with a wide grip
