The landmine is the best training tool you aren't getting the MOST out of! Let's change that.

Using the landmine setup as a tool in the weight room beyond a few basic movements, like landmine rows and presses, is generally poorly understood by trainers at large. Most people get lost and therefore stay within the basic of a few movements. Consequently, its usefulness is highly underrated, misunderstood, and wasted.
