Performing the shoulder shrugs with the kettlebells is very effective in targeting the traps found in the upper back region. The exercise is ideal for even beginners and casual trainers, thanks to its simple motion.

Instructions:

Step 1: Stand straight with your feet placed shoulder-width apart. Secure the kettlebells in both the arms and place them on the side, parallel to the body.

Step 2: With a stationary torso, raise the shoulders upwards without moving your arms until you feel a stretch in the upper back region.

Step 3: Hold for a moment and return to the starting position.

Repeat the exercise for the recommended number of times.

Important tip: Keep the elbows close to the body throughout the duration of the exercise.
