Default Re: Barbell Shrugs

I prefer to use the barbell inside a good squat rack...but,there is an old nautilus machine I use in gym that has a plate loaded bench press..I slide the bench out of the way..lean forward slightly..and do shrugs on it high rep after the barbell work is finished.Leaning forward on this machine targets a different area of the traps for me.Like Jasthace I like to really let my arms hang low as hell at bottom to get a really good stretch on the traps..then straight up like he said.
