Landmine Core Training

The missing piece is USUALLY driving IN towards the bar

Most people know how to do movements like Rainbows but neglect to drive with POWER into the bar

This frontside tension amplifies the movement for your midsection

So rather than adding more weight, add more INTENTION

Landmine Rotational Press

This is the movement that made me fall in love with the Landmine.

Rotation is in everything we do and gets programmed less than anything in our training.

This movement is a full expression of power!

Starting Position;
Standing parallel to the landmine, hold the far end of the landmine with the right hand in front of the hips. Place feet a little wider than hip width than you
would normally squat.

Coaching Cues
Bend the knees and break at the hips to sit down into a squat position with the landmine end centered in between the legs and around shin height

Explode up and to the right with the landmine by driving off of the left foot and rotating the entire body explosively so that you finish the move by
driving the landmine up into a locked-out position with the left hand.

That is 1 rep

Exercise Selection is like Grocery Shopping

You don’t need to know every item (exercise)

You don’t have to buy every brand (modality)

You need to know the staples for yourself

And buy the snacks (fun exercises) that make you happy

You don’t have to memorize the whole store, you just have to know what works for you!

3 Unconventional Landmine Exercises you should try

these are three lower body exercises I rotate in out of my program

The first is the Landmine Zercher Squat. This front loaded option put some great stress on the quads and mid back.

The second exercise is the Landmine Pendulum Lunge. This back-and-forth lunge keeps tension in the legs, alternating between the forward and reverse lunges.

The last exercise is the Landmine Hack Squat. This movement is great for targeting the quads and allows you smooth depth.

All three can have a solid purpose in a program and give you options to navigate in and out.

One of the Landmine’s more UNDERRATED Core Exercises

Landmine Bear Crawl

Starting Position:
Place your hands directly under the shoulders and grip the far end of the landmine with an overhand grip.

Push the shoulder blades apart, brace the core, and
then bend the knees to around 90 degrees to achieve a flat back position.

Walking the position forward and back

Recommend starting with 2-3 rounds of 2-3 times forward and back

Landmine High Pull

Is what initiates the Rotational Press

The rotational press is a continuance and amplification of the power generated by the high pull

And while you will hear people say power doesn’t come from the core or rotation. Usually it doesn’t start there, but it sure gets amplified there.

Landmine Grip

I’ve never loved stacking hands when holding the Landmine

It’s just a little too offset for my preference

Instead, butting the base of the palms together gives an even grip and more comfortable feel

Check out this explanation!
