The landmine attachment anchors one end of a barbell, creating a pivot point for unique pressing, rowing, and rotational movements. The arc of motion is joint-friendly for shoulders while allowing heavy loads. Landmine training excels for athletes needing rotational power and lifters seeking pressing alternatives that do not aggravate their joints. Most gyms have a landmine attachment, but a barbell wedged in a corner works too.
