Instructions

1. Start by positioning a barbell into a landmine setup or securely in a corner if a landmine attachment is not available.

2. Load the desired weight onto the opposite end of the barbell.

3. Stand with your feet wider than shoulder-width apart, toes pointing outwards, in a sumo stance.

4. Grip the barbell end with both hands in front of you at the center of your body. You may interlock your fingers or place one hand over the other for a strong grip.

5. Brace your core, keep your back straight, and your chest up.

6. Begin the movement by bending your knees and lowering your body down into a squat. Keep the weight on your heels and avoid letting your knees track over your toes.

7. Squat down until your thighs are at least parallel to the ground, or as low as you can comfortably go without compromising your form.

8. Drive through your heels to return to the starting position, extending your hips and knees.

9. Perform the desired number of reps and sets.

Be sure to maintain a tight core throughout the exercise and avoid rounding your lower back during the movement. Adjust the weight as necessary to ensure proper form.
