Barbell Shrug

Preparation
Stand holding barbell with a overhand or mixed grip; shoulder width or slightly wider.

Execution
Elevate shoulders as high as possible. Lower and repeat.

Comments
Since this movement becomes more difficult as full shoulder elevation is achieved, a height criteria for shoulder elevation may be needed. For example, raising the shoulders until the slope of the shoulders become horizontal may be considered adequate depending upon individual body structure.
