Overview

The middle back shrug is an exercise that targets the traps, which are the muscles that run along the back of your neck and shoulders. To do this exercise, stand with your feet shoulder-width apart and hold a dumbbell in each hand. With your arms hanging at your sides, shrug your shoulders up as high as you can, then slowly lower them back down. Repeat this for 10-12 repetitions. The middle back shrug is a great exercise for strengthening and toning your traps.
