Exercise Profile

Landmine Press Overview

The landmine press is a shoulder-focused workout that utilizes the landmine attachment to engage the shoulders.

By using a barbell inserted into the landmine, the exercise allows for a greater range of motion and stability.

It primarily targets the deltoid muscles, specifically the anterior and lateral heads, for a well-rounded shoulder workout.

While it also engages the triceps and upper chest, its main emphasis is on developing strong and defined shoulders.

Landmine Press Instructions

  1. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, toes pointing forward.
  2. Place one end of the barbell into a landmine attachment or securely anchor it in a corner.
  3. Grasp the other end of the barbell with both hands, palms facing each other, and lift it up to shoulder height.
  4. Press the barbell overhead, fully extending your arms while keeping your core engaged.
  5. Lower the barbell back down to shoulder height, bending your elbows and maintaining control.
  6. Repeat the press and lower motion for the desired number of repetitions.
  7. Once you have completed the set, carefully lower the barbell back down to the starting position.

Landmine Press Tips

  1. Position yourself in front of the landmine with your feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, and core engaged for stability.
  2. Grasp the barbell with an overhand grip, palms facing down, and hands shoulder-width apart.
  3. Start the movement by pressing the barbell up and away from your body, keeping your elbows slightly bent and your shoulders engaged.
  4. As you press the barbell up, focus on squeezing your shoulder blades together and maintaining a tall, proud posture.
  5. Lower the barbell back down to the starting position in a controlled manner, feeling the tension in your shoulders as you go.
