      Possibly in wrong section but how much can you DB shrug ?

      I can get up to the 60's then my grip gives up ?

      Interested to see what you guys can do.

      Over to you ?

      trap bar probably 140 kg with a proper squeeze .... and doing it effectively !!!

      DB's i find 55 kg does mine nicely use straps to help with grip as i always do shrugs last !!!

      Gym only goes to 50kg but can do these but tbh a bit awkward - would prefer to do shrugs with a trap bar alas no such thing in the gym.
      IMO strap are cool when doing shrugs if it helps you lift with out the grip giving way and therefore maintain better form etc.

      Yeah but its not form or technique related or strongman so was a bit unsure.
