Landmine Russian Twist Low Tips

  2. Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, and hold the landmine handle with both hands at chest level.
  3. Rotate the torso to one side, keeping the hips facing forward, and then rotate to the other side in a controlled manner.
  4. Exhale as you twist, engaging the obliques, and inhale as you return to the starting position.
  5. Keep the core tight throughout the exercise to maximize the oblique engagement and prevent strain on the lower back.
