Trapezius muscle

The trapezius is a large muscle in the upper back and neck area. It stabilizes and moves the shoulder blades, making it essential for maintaining an upright posture and healthy shoulder girdle movement. During back and shoulder training, the trapezius plays a supporting role. Exercises such as rowing or shoulder shrugs specifically activate this muscle. People who sit for long periods or work extensively at a computer benefit greatly from a strong trapezius, as it helps prevent tension and stabilizes head posture.
