Default DB or BB shrugs?
Been doing BB shrugs for a while now, and i love 'em! Had some good growth going with about 12 reps(ish)

Was curious as to what everyone else prefers?

Do em heavy. Do em hard.

Power cleans, farmers walks, or any other form of weighted carry are also fantastic.

BB shrugs over DB shrugs for me anyday. I get better results, but I do use DBs occassionally when training traps and upper back.

Barbell. You'll run out of weight on dumbells pretty quickly.
