This is a more power-oriented version of the landmine press, which complements the overhead push-press or acts as a substitute for those unable to push overhead due to injury or limitations.
Landmine Push Press
- Perform the concentric (pressing portion) as fast as you can.
- Use both your arm and legs together in a smooth and coordinated fashion to press.
- Lower the bar back down with deliberate control to set up for the next rep.
Set and rep recommendations: 4-6 sets x 3-5 reps per side.
