Instructions

1. Set up for the exercise by securing one end of a barbell in a landmine attachment or at a secure base.

2. Load the opposite end of the barbell with the appropriate weight plates.

3. Stand with your feet hip-width apart, facing the barbell and grip the barbell near the end with both hands.

4. Keep your back straight, shoulders back, and chest up as you stand tall. This will be your starting position.

5. Initiate the movement by pushing your hips back while keeping a slight bend in the knees. As you hinge at the hips, lower the barbell along the path of your legs.

6. Lower the barbell until you feel a stretch in your hamstrings or as far as you can go without rounding your lower back.

7. Maintain the straight back and engaged core throughout the movement.

8. Engage your hamstrings and glutes to reverse the movement, lifting the barbell as you return to the starting position.

9. Keep the weight close to your body throughout the exercise to maintain good form.

10. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
