Shoulder Boulders: Upright rows + Deficit pushups
Athletes will have 14 minutes to complete -
4 rounds for QUALITY:
8 upright barbell rows
8 plate deficit push-ups
*The load on the upright row should be one that all 8 repetitions can be completed in a row and proper posture is maintained.
*Athletes can add deficit to their push-ups each round or maintain the deficit. If strict push-ups without deficit are challenging for you, simply practice maintaining a strict position for 8 reps instead of adding the deficit.
