Bent Over Dumbbell Shrugs | Upper Back Exercises
In the video below you will see osteopath Heath Williams of Principle Four Osteopathy performing a seated bent over dumbbell shrug. This exercise focuses on the upper and middle trap. The key take home points here are:
- Sit and aim to hinge through the hips and maintain as straight a spine as possible
- Select a weight load that is going to allow you to perform 8-12 rep range
- Keep the elbows locked straight and ensure the shrug is coming from the shoulders
