It makes it easier to load heavier weight, perhaps. However, in order to focus on the Trapezius I (upper), dumbbells will be most effective, because the dumbell can be place next to the body. This is necessary in order to allow the Trap to perform proper line of pull through scapular elevation and upward rotation. Using a bar is more effective for a portion of Trap slighty lower on the back. I recommend using both. Mix it up with supersets or rotate each exercise in and out each week. Tell me what you think.
