Just a note. Don't look up during shrugs. I think this is what borked my neck in October last year.

I have always liked up right rows either with a bar or with a machine. Also Deadlifts work good too.

The best thing that has ever built my traps are power shrugs.

My favorite is deadlifts. Do not know if it is the best or not but it is what works for me.
