(..and only drop down to 225 lbs. after I've exhausted myself to the point where I can only rep 375 lbs. once). Spend more time in lower rep - 2 to 4 reps - range with heavier weight. Don't worry about sets per se. If you get through 4 sets of low rep/heavy weight and still feel like you have plenty of gas, keep on going.

If your traps are lacking, overhead press more.

Whether you're bulking or cutting, lift heavy
OHP's are great. I get a good burn in my traps when I deadlift as well.
