i have been going to the gym and while now and have seen great gains, but traps are one of my favourite muscles. i have been doing military presses and barbell shrugs to work on them. they have been working but i was wondering if there was any other exercise that would help me train them. As there is very few different exercises. also i heard that shoulder rolls aren't a good exercise for them, is this true? thanks.

I hit them 2 or more times a week with different rep ranges and weights.
Somedays I'll go very heavy on barbell shrugs with lower reps, other days not so heavy but high rep on barbell and behind the back barbell. Then other days I'll do the db shrugs.........but actually I'm starting to like the Trap Bar very much in place of dumbbells as well as the Hammer Strength shrug machine (as far as isolation without worrying about grip issues after I've been doing other heavy bb work that day).
