The Snatch Shrug is a intermediate olympic weightlifting exercise that targets the traps using barbell. It’s great for building strength, improving form, and developing overall fitness.
Instructions
- Begin with a wide grip, with the bar hanging at the mid thigh position. You can use a hook or overhand grip. Your back should be straight and inclined slightly forward.
- Shrug your shoulders towards your ears. While this exercise can usually by loaded with heavier weight than a snatch, avoid overloading to the point that the execution slows down.
