How to do it
Take three seconds to lower into the bottom of each squat.
- 1
Position yourself at the end of a landmine bar, holding the bar at chest height with both hands.
- 2
Stand with feet shoulder-width apart, toes slightly turned out.
- 3
Brace your core and squat down, keeping your elbows up and chest lifted.
- 4
Descend until your thighs are parallel to the ground or lower.
- 5
Drive through your heels to return to the starting position.
Expert tip
Keep your elbows high to prevent the bar from pulling you forward. Engage your core and glutes to maintain an upright torso throughout the movement.
