    You can only do them while wearing a grass skirt. And if you wear lederhosen while shrugging, then you're doing... you guessed it! German shrugs!














    I obviously have no clue either.
    "If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

    Hawaiian shrugs involve someone asking, "Where do you get a job around here?" and some hippy replying with a shrug, "I dunno dude, I only surf which is tubular".

    About 1.4 seconds of searching for the article, and .6 seconds of searching the article for "Hawaiian" unearthed this:

    http://forums.projectcovo.com/archiv.../t-736594.html
    We moved on to 315 pounds, and while I was doing my set, I told them: "I use another form of dynamic shrugging for variation or when I don't have any type of rack to hold the weight for me. I call them Hawaiian shrugs because that's how we did them at the University of Hawaii till we got a power rack.

    These are done outside a rack without any support between the reps. They are also beneficial for anyone who has trouble learning the exercise inside the rack, since they force you to do them correctly. They're done exactly like those inside the rack, but you have no relaxation time between reps. The first few times you do shrugs outside a rack, stay rather light. You want to make sure you have the form down before loading up the bar, and also Hawaiian shrugs work the shoulders a bit differently. This is a plus if the form is right, but if the bar starts to move around too much, you can get hurt."

    And GOD DAMN this thread is funny. I am glad it got bumped up.
