I recently learned that you should supplement dip work with shrugs. Are handstands a good enough substitution for shrug strength?
Handstands for shrugs

Shrugging while doing a handstand would be an inverted shrug (or scapular handstand push-up).
A shrug is done pulling your shoulders to your ears. Be it while hanging inverted or standing with weights in your hands.
Thank you for clarifying.
Yep, you can do HS shrugs, support shrugs, pushup/scap shrugs and inverted shrugs. They are all good for your shoulders.
