Machine Shrugs

Stand facing the machine. Take an overhand grip on the bar, with your hands slightly more than shoulder-width apart. If the machine allows it you can grip the bar so that your palms face each other.

1. Keep your head and back straight and shrug your shoulders as high as possible.

2. Exhale as you return to the starting position then, repeat the next repetition.

Notes:
This exercise primarily works the upper part of the trapezius and the levetator scapulae.
