TL;DR Summary

The author shares their experience of doing 50 dumbbell shrugs a day for a week. They felt the exercise primarily in their forearms and noticed improvements in grip strength. They had to focus on maintaining good form, including squeezing their shoulder blades together and keeping their head and neck relaxed. They also experimented with variations of the exercise, such as using a barbell and doing single-arm shrugs. By the end of the week, their traps felt stronger, but they emphasize the importance of not working the same muscle group every day.
