Landmine Press

Secure one end of a barbell in a suitable landmine attachment. Stand facing the free end in a stable split stance and hold the sleeve in one hand near the shoulder. Brace your trunk and press the bar upward and forward along its natural arc. Keep your hips and knees steady; this is a strict press without a leg drive. Lower the sleeve toward the shoulder under control. Finish the planned repetitions, then change sides. Avoid leaning backward to reach farther.

Landmine Press primarily trains the shoulders, with the chest and triceps and core contributing. The exact demand depends on your setup, range, and chosen load.

Set stable contact points and a secure grip before pressing. Control the lowering phase and press through a comfortable, repeatable path. Use suitable rack safeties or assistance for heavy barbell work; avoid sudden changes in position.
