Why get demotivated? I get even more motivated when some punk ass ah beng walks into the gym and tries to mimic what I've been doing with bunny weights and try to act like he's better than me.
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE DESTROYING THEIR EGO AND BELIEF IN THEMSELVES. I like that they never dare to look me in the eye anymore too. Hee

Actually, the traps is part of the deadlift motion. Mike, u sure you don't fry your traps dead lifting?

Then you have to correct your form even more. It's not just your legs, your whole back should be fried. That is why I leave my deads at the End of the w/o. Takes whatever that's left out.

your arms are hooks to the bar, your arms are attached to your traps,which means in the movement, the load is on your traps. If your traps dont get fried, basically, at the top of the movement, you are hanging on with your arms, not your traps.

well shrugs isolates the traps , but deads work them just as well. Because you mentioned that you don't feel it in your traps and just your legs. Well, unless you are doing a SLDL, quite frankly,the main focus should be in your back , not your legs. With a deadlift, I feel my traps, lats, middle back lower back get hammered before I start feeling anything more in my legs, not that I don't feel anything at all but it'll be like the 1st working set instead of the feeling of getting hammered. I don't know if you get the idea. But that is what I'm trying to point out here.
and I agree on the shrugging causes more soreness on my traps, but If I do deads b4 shrugs, my poundages would go down most definitely, in fact, it would go down a lot. Because the traps were already fried. Btw, dark, non-taken. This is the kind of discussion that should be happening in this forum, not how nitrotech will give us sixpack kind of discussion.

QUOTE(mikehuan @ Oct 19 2011, 08:37 AM) Hmm never did get a trap workout from deadlifts though. Imo deadlifting gave me more strength gains rather than anything else. Helps to put poundages in your other lifts. I was referring to this. that's why. Just saying that DLS hit the back > legs bro. I just saw dark's post after I post thats why This post has been edited by razorboy: Oct 19 2011, 11:50 AM

And there was once I did shrugs on shoulder days, and the next day was back, man that workout was a pain throughout. I literally had to slap myself to keep myself focused on hammering my back than the soreness that I had to deal with

QUOTE(Pepper @ Oct 22 2011, 07:58 PM) why not get more than one spotter instead? they could just help you by stopping the weight fall on you and at the same time not having their balls in your face, right?  It's not feasible especially if you only have one training partner or none
