Instructions
1. Secure one end of a barbell into a landmine attachment or wedge it securely into a corner if you do not have a landmine setup.
2. Place an appropriate weight on the other end of the barbell. Although additional weight might not be necessary, it can be added for increased difficulty.
3. Position yourself in a plank position, with your hands on the bar close together, a bit wider than shoulder-width apart. Your feet should be extended behind you, with your weight supported on your toes.
4. Your body should form a straight line from your heels to your head, engaging the core to keep your hips from sagging or sticking up in the air.
5. Lower your chest toward the bar by bending your elbows, keeping your body straight and your core engaged.
6. Push through your hands, extending your elbows to return to the starting plank position.
7. Repeat the push-up motion for the desired number of repetitions and sets.
8. Be sure to perform the exercise with controlled movements, and always maintain proper form to reduce the risk of injury. If this is your first time performing landmine push-ups, consider having a spotter or fitness professional supervise and provide feedback on your form.
