Here is an exercise that hits the middle traps....
Working your middle trapezius--a tough muscle to target--can add bulk to the region between your shoulder blades and improve your posture. Attach a single handle to the low pulley on the seated row and grab it with your right hand, palm facing down. As you pull the handle, twist your upper body so the handle moves toward your right hip. When your elbow is behind you, squeeze your shoulder blade in toward the midline of your back. Pause when the handle reaches your hip, then return to the starting position. Repeat the move with your left arm.
