Trap strain treatment

[Barry Halls]

There is a golf ball sized bundle of fuckery inside my right trap that I got from a heavy and incorrect press.

In the last podcast, Rip spoke about the importance of working strained tissue so that a scar doesn't develop and lead to future problems such as tears.

Question is, what would be a good exercise for my traps?

[Mark Rippetoe]

Assuming your diagnosis is correct, deadlifts work the traps.

[Barry Halls]

Yes indeed, thank you sir

[Will Morris]

Yes indeed, thank you sir

Don't discount the effects of doing dumb things with your neck when you are struggling with a heavy press.
