Instructions
1. Set up a barbell in a landmine attachment. Load the free end of the barbell with an appropriate weight.
2. Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, facing perpendicular to the bar, and hold the weighted end with both hands close to your chest. Your arms should be bent.
3. Starting with your torso twisted to one side, engage your core and explosively rotate your torso to swing the barbell up and across your body, forming an arc until it's over the opposite side, all while keeping your arms bent.
4. Keep your hips and legs stable and allow your torso to do the work.
5. Pause momentarily when you've reached the full rotation, then reverse the motion, bringing the weight back across your body to the starting position on the other side.
6. This constitutes one full repetition. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions, maintaining control and stability throughout the movement.
Ensure that you perform the exercise in a controlled manner, particularly when rotating, to avoid any strain on your back or shoulders. Adjust the weight to fit your strength level and to maintain proper form throughout the exercise.
