Make every rep count.
- 01
Stand tall with a neutral spine and feet in your normal squat stance (about shoulder-width).
- 02
Hold the landmine end of the bar with both hands at your chest, elbows slightly in and wrists stacked.
- 03
Squat down to about parallel by bending hips and knees together. Keep your chest up, knees tracking over toes, and heels planted.
- 04
Drive through the floor to stand up. As you pass the sticking point, use that leg power to smoothly press the bar up and forward to full lockout (hips and knees extended, arms straight).
- 05
Lower with control back to your chest, reset your brace, and repeat for reps.
