Learned this from the legend, John Meadows, awhile back, and forward lean makes a huuuge difference.

😂😂😂 It sure is !!!
Spot on! One of the only channels I've seen introduce this properly. I learned this several years ago and it's how I always do them. A shrug isn't really just shrugging your shoulders, it's a row for your traps, where you're not going up, but up and back. Will make your traps way more 3 dimensional, and my test for people is always how they immediately feel the difference. You can't just do this with heavy azz dumbbells either because you're actually doing a fuller ROM. Much lighter weight here, check your ego at the door and do it right.
Started doing the lean forward recently just off my own bat so cool to see its a legit thing! Thanks man
Excellent tip!👍👍💪
Love the Friday fit tips keep em comin
Good tip. Thank you.
This clips are amazing.
thank you so much for this video!
Ohhh can’t wait to try this!!
Thanks Sal! Btw your book was awesome 👌
Gonna try this out today!
I was doing it the right way, thanks for the confirmation👍
Lookin' good, Sal! Keep on!
Made it in time 🔥🔥
Thanks, Sal #TeamSal
Oh yeah! I feel it! Fukkin good too. Gonna be huge in no time.
Started doing version of this on the Smith Machine. I grab the bar about shoulder width and do a similar motion as shown in this video, with a bit of a shrug and a bit of a row. Nothing has blasted my traps quite like this.
Will try that out.
My favorite trap movement. Thanks for the validation. I prefer to use a trap bar with plenty of load.
Thanks!
Thank you
I like to do it as a compound movement. I'll pair it up as the couter part of th Dip. I like to go heavy and bring my hands as high as possible elbows back and out just a little bit. Making it a great compound movement for not only traps but also shoulders, bíceps, forearms, core... Etc. 👍💪🙏
You all are doing a great job. One suggestion from me would be that you all make different videos. This channel has 10 videos of the same topic by different persons. Don't get me wrong I understand but whenever I see all options i just select Sal's videos only because it confuses a hell lot to me whose vid I should watch. Y'all can spread the content among all the team.
nice one
This is good! Definitely under-viewed
Nice 👍🏾
Tried it. Can confirm that you definitely feel it more than the traditional shrug

I did that for years, I even advise to super set this with Plate raise under head and then kill it with calf raises with same dumbells you used for shrugs, just lift it top of shrug position loock it up and squeeze for the whole duration of the calf raise set
Two questions: is that Freedom shirt available for purchase? And is there a video on how to properly measure body fat using calipers? Thanks again
My triceps have gotten huge ever since watching this video

My calves as well. I pull up to my ears, my calves feel that BURN.
Tops of those triceps huh!!! ?? Lol im sure you meant traps or trapesius!!! But good tip my man also if allow a slight distance from and dumbells you will get more into the meat of the traps.
I've never done a single shrug and I have very developed traps....and I'm not a big guy either. About the same build as Zac Efron. The only thing I could attribute my trap development to are heavy deadlifting, heavy rack pulls, loaded carries and cleans. I would bet cleans has been the biggest contributor. I see guys shrugging all over the gym and I don't get it. Learn how to do power cleans and work up to your own body weight. Get in a power rack and do heavy pulls above the knee. Walk 2 miles carrying heavy kettlbells. Not saying shrugs are useless, but I think good trap development comes from a variety of exercises that don't necessarily directly target the muscle, but have worked for me big time. Don't forget snatch grip high pulls. That's another awesome trap worker.

Basically exercises where you can load a good amount of weight because other muscles are contributing also in that movement. I think those are very good suggestions sir.
Cool tip!.. how much $ for the shirt?? ..lol
Shrugs should be done at an angle.
Learned these from Jason ferrugia 15 years ago. Pretty sure they’re called renegade rows. Could be wrong
My left and right sides are so different it's crazy.. its like 2 different builds 🤦🏻♂️

My god hes beautiful.
Not one fucking video without making some kind of political statement on a t-shirt. Doug was right to say away from this shit for so long.
