Landmine for Strength and Athletic Training

[@Jaredkprimalhealth]

"Movement should take Precedent over how much you can lift" 👍

[@GrownandHealthy]

I learned that the hard way. 👍🏾

Only 2 minutes in and I've had to sub. The brother's approach is deep. When he threw out Leonardo Da Vinci's Peruvian Man & man's inherent 'Circle of Movement Capability' I knew I was in the presence of a teacher.

Peruvian Man? xdd

@@e.vangelios7285 thank you

[@dancarrison9354]

Great for us older folks as well: easier on the joints. I've found that I can do almost any traditional barbell movement as a landmine exercise. Thanks for the video.

[@TyroneSweigart]

Your knowledge is priceless and way better information than anyone could find on one of those "fitness influencer" channels. This is the real deal! Thank you for not selling out to the world and keeping your videos filled with real information instead of a bunch of PED programs that natties have no use for.

[@scottyg5403]

Just discovered your channel! Excellent content! Thanks

[@Len-Dor1983]

Got one when I developed my home gym absolutely no regrets . As a retired football player the Landmine is great for movement and challenges on many plains. Great explanation.

[@simonpenzer9969]

Excellent video I’ve just started using the Landmine bar as you explain it’s the only piece of equipment you need. Great channel 👍🇬🇧

[@dpwr96]

Great vid. What landline handle are you using? You didn’t leave a link for it. Keep up the great content!

[@נדב-ל6ר]

Amazing channel I am sending a link to all my friends in my country Israel

[@bto9063]

Great video.

[@jpeg.jordaan]

love landmines. never thought of going on toes though

[@sambsialia]

I will give you full credit on your message here, and I admit that I have not tried landmines. However, I will argue that the most economical tool for strength and athleticism is the Mark Wildman adjustable weight competition kettlebell by bells of steel. One bell is sub $400, and stores or transports in quite a small space. Your channel is new to me and the focus on athleticism and the windlass mechanism is very interesting. Thank you for your articulate and concise presentation of complex principles.

[@woodworkingarenas5067]

Fantastic video! Great job!

What a gem, a great channel

Hi, what's the name of this barbell extension/handel ?

[@_Crunch]

Hey boss,love your content, I find myself regurgitating all of your content to my coworkers I've gotten five people now hooked on barefoot shoes and they're never turning back all thanks to you you make a difference in people's lives. your hard work shows. Would you ever consider doing a review on the primal runamocs?

[@siberfit27]

Interesting video! Thanks for sharing! 😊👍

[@patricknicolas1596]

Hello love the info. What is that attachment you have one the front of the bar. Hank you.

[@GeneticallyDefectiveBroski]

He mentions it @6:25

[@RV-ri8jk]

Great recommendation.

[@Emanuel_careyWX-WRI]

I need to get one! I used to do it when I had access. Now it’s all kettlebell for me. I see Amazon has a 7ft barbell for 59 dollars😥🤷🏾‍♂️

[@GrownandHealthy]

Do it! 👍🏾

[@cindywulff5535]

I bought mine off of Amazon too, bet the delivery driver bought died lifting it from the truck to the house!

[@eddiepizarro7441]

I just started implementing landmine workouts, is there like a some kind of a poster or layout where it shows all the workouts you can do ?

[@horseblinderson4747]

What do I think. I know you nailed Movement, Cost Effectiveness, and Time Right on the head. Now my take aways Getting front back symmetry being it's a bigger pain PitA on both keeping your heart rate up and staying busy and getting at it. It's better to simply adjust out your rep count than to constantly switch your weights. At that when you do it's only one side one that isn't going to slip off, collars are less necessary. Accessories, you can use a pull rope or simply use your belt, can use a 90° close handle just throw it under the grip of the bar, can get a viking handle, link two stirrup handles, can do roll out pushups or archers. The setup itself lends itself more to just using what you have and making the most of it even if it doesn't all match. I have a set of playground style rings that I put up with harbor freight ratchet straps it works just as well as the fancy stuff and seeing they come in a 4 pack it's easy to set up multiple lengths and just leave them. I have probably a dozen more big ones. But I have more vids to watch on this.

[@oldboarbrain]

Is it okay to use a barbell with spinning sleeves? How does that affect the lifts?

[@GrownandHealthy]

That is what I'm using. It is more helpful than a hinderance.

[@superdave1466]

I have been a bodybuilder since age 14. I am 58 not and experiencing shoulder tendonitis. I am doing PT for my shoulders and just started doing Landmine exercises. However, my barbell is 7ft long and 45 lbs. I found a 6ft barbell that only weighs 15 lbs which may be good for me as I am doing rehab. Can you do Landmine workouts with a 6ft barbell, or does it have be 7ft? What is the minimum length of barbell for Landmine workouts?

[@sb-vy8cw]

Thanks for this. Quick question. Does the barbell have to be an Olympic one? Is there a problem if it's a standard one?

[@GrownandHealthy]

I prefer the Olympic Barbell, but many landmine bases have a slot for a Standard bar. I think any bar that has properly fitting weights will work.

[@lgm2356]

What do you think of gym machines? I think nearly all of them are absolutely unnecessary. There's many evidence on them causing muscle disbalances which is deadly to overall bone and muscle health. Even with free weight you are not really safe so every movement we do for a specific muscle should focus only on that muscle and proper form. I for example managed to strain my upper trap and neck muscles after a bicep curl. I was contracting them during last reps. Went home then went bacpacking and after making some jerky hand movement like pointing my arm out, my muscle lengthened and caused me insane amount of pain that day.

[@GrownandHealthy]

Many machines are problematic, and as you mentioned, even free weights can pose a problem. I think bodyweight is the primary toll for strength development, many of my injuries throughout lifting would have been avoided if I had focused sufficiently on calisthenics. My order of importance calisthenics (some exercises pose a risk, also) > kettlebell/ Sandbags > landmine > freeweights > cables > conventional machines.

[@lgm2356]

@@GrownandHealthy Thank you, that list makes a lot of sense. I think cables aren't good at all, they constantly maintain unnatural tension during the movement. When pulling a cable with a lot of load towards you can have a feeling like your back muscles will pop out. 😆

[@ninetails1553]

Hey Coach. I have a 15 yo son playing basketball. What are your thoughts as to teaching him barefoot running technique? Do you think it would transfer into basketball, or just be a waste of time for this sport in particular?
