I like deadlifts and power cleans. And farmer's walks. And Power Shrugs.

With questions like this you can ask 10 different people and get 10 different answers and none of them are wrong.
I use deadlifts, powercleans, and kirk karwoski rows for my traps. Previously I just used deads and strict shrugs. I think all of these movements are great for building the traps.

shrugs and deadlifts have been my staple. When i do 5x5 deadlifts i like to add 3 shrugs at the top for 5 deadlifts and 15 shrugs.

As my Deadlift and Squat increases my traps grow in proportion. They've never been bigger than currently.

Upright rows, for sure, along with heavy deads and power cleans.
