How to do it

1. Set up the landmine. Seat the bar end firmly in the landmine or a corner and load the free end.
2. Hold the end of the bar at shoulder height and stand or kneel tall.
3. Press up and forward until the arm is straight, without leaning back.
4. Lower under control to the shoulder.
5. Control every rep. Breathe out through the hardest part and stop the set when your form changes.

Common mistakes

• Leaning back. Stand or kneel tall; the bar goes up and forward.
• Shrugging at the top. Reach forward with the shoulder, not up towards the ear.
