Just do whatever is more comfortable for you, or try 2/3 sets of each.

I always found that traditional shrugs were inferior to incline bench shrugs, or deads, or cleans, or farmers walks for the traps.

Cleans are especially good for traps as they are the prime mover for the second pull.

If you are going to use a BB or DB shrug, try turning off the caps lock, then alternating between BB and DB each week.

Power Shrugs for sure, greatest direct trap movement out there man. Power Shrugs plus Heavy Deads equals great traps

Power shrugs are nice. You also should be able to control your shoulder blade well. It helps.
