Exercise Profile

Landmine Power Clean And Press Overview

The landmine Power clean and press workout is designed to target the Quads, Glutes, Shoulders, and Back.

The landmine, a barbell attachment, allows for a controlled and stable movement, minimizing strain on auxiliary muscles.

By explosively lifting the barbell from the floor to the shoulders and then pressing it overhead, the Quads and Glutes are engaged.

Simultaneously, the Shoulders and Back are activated during the pressing movement, resulting in a full-body workout.

Landmine Power Clean And Press Instructions

  1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, toes pointing slightly outward.
  2. Place the landmine barbell on the floor in front of you, perpendicular to your body.
  3. Squat down and grip the barbell with both hands, palms facing inward and hands shoulder-width apart.
  4. Keep your back straight and chest up as you lift the barbell off the floor, extending your hips and knees.
  5. As the barbell reaches waist height, explosively pull it up towards your shoulders, bending your elbows and bringing your hands close to your chest.
  6. Once the barbell reaches shoulder height, quickly press it overhead by extending your arms fully.
  7. Lower the barbell back down to your shoulders, then to waist height, and finally back to the starting position on the floor.

Landmine Power Clean And Press Tips

  1. Start by positioning your feet shoulder-width apart, with the landmine placed just in front of your toes. This exercise is all about explosive power, so make sure to engage your quads by driving through your heels and extending your knees and hips in one fluid motion.
  2. As you lift the landmine, focus on activating your glutes. Squeeze them at the top of the movement to ensure maximum engagement. This will not only help you generate power but also protect your lower back from unnecessary strain.
  3. When it comes to your shoulders, think about pulling them back and down as you lift the landmine. This will create a stable base and allow you to maintain proper form throughout the exercise. Remember to keep your core tight and your chest lifted for optimal shoulder engagement.
  4. As you press the landmine overhead, be mindful of your back. Keep it straight and avoid any excessive arching or rounding. This will help you target your upper back muscles effectively and prevent any potential injuries.
  5. To get the most out of the landmine power clean and press, practice proper breathing techniques. Inhale deeply as you lower the landmine to the starting position, and exhale forcefully as you explosively lift and press it overhead. This will enhance your power output and provide stability throughout the movement.
