^upright rows and front barbell shrugs. Deadlifts are good in that they really help add mass to your traps, but if you really want to isolate them and make them look cut out and visible, try out some of the exercises i mentioned...

Facepulls and best of all in my opinion, cleans.

Get a 45 plate hold it right with one hand
Go over to the squat rack with free hand and grab the rack and lean over and then shrug with the hand with the weight
This will do the top part of traps

I'd say wrist wraps and a good ol' barbell shrug will do the trick. Your forearms may not be getting a workout as well, but your not targeting your forearms in this exercise. Been doing this for a while and its worked very well, try it out!

Yeah that's exactly what I do. Imo if you're working on shrugs and tryna develop it traps that way, straps really help prevent any instability from gripping heavier dumbbells. Cus of u don't have the straps, I'll probably be settling for a lower weight and will be working on it forearm strength more so than your traps.

I think you mean lifting straps? Wraps are the ones that go wrap around your wrist for support.
