Kyle Courville Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 I recently learned that you should supplement dip work with shrugs. Are handstands a good enough substitution for shrug strength? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gymgreg Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blairbob Posted August 29, 2010 Share Posted August 29, 2010 Yep, you can do HS shrugs, support shrugs, pushup/scap shrugs and inverted shrugs. They are all good for your shoulders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
