The landmine punch mimics the straight punch. Place the bar in the landmine/angled position, assume your fighting stance, and grab it with your lead hand. Push the bar away explosively, following its path at about 45 degrees, and lower the weight back slowly.
Always remember to keep the other hand up, guarding your face, just as you would in a fight. When you're finished with the jab, switch hands and work the cross punch. In this case, the body will rotate more.
The load should be around 70 percent of your current max. Perform 3 to 4 sets of 2 to 5 reps.

The Testosterone Training Codex
For years, I've been watching zombies, training zombies. They wander aimlessly from station to station, doing exercises haphazardly with really no rhyme or reason except that, "this one kinda' feels like it's doing something." Once in awhile, they'll grasp on to a particular program but they'll end up beating it into the ground, doing it for months and months until they've long since milked any effectiveness from it.
