Barbell Shrug

طريقة الأداء

1. 01Stand up straight with your feet at shoulder width as you hold a barbell with both hands in front of you using a pronated grip (palms facing the thighs). Tip: Your hands should be a little wider than shoulder width apart. You can use wrist wraps for this exercise for a better grip. This will be your starting position.
2. 02Raise your shoulders up as far as you can go as you breathe out and hold the contraction for a second. Tip: Refrain from trying to lift the barbell by using your biceps.
3. 03Slowly return to the starting position as you breathe in.
4. 04Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions.
