How to do it

  1. Seat one end of a barbell in a landmine attachment and stand facing the free end.
  2. Pick up the free end with both hands and hold it at chest height, elbows tucked under the bar.
  3. Set your feet between hip- and shoulder-width and brace your core.
  4. Bend at the hips and knees to descend, keeping your torso upright with a slight forward lean and your knees tracking over your toes.
  5. Descend until your thighs are roughly parallel to the floor, without rounding your lower back.
  6. Drive through your heels to stand back up, extending your hips and knees together to the top.
