EXERCISE: Landmine Workouts - Why You Need a Solid Plan
Why a plan matters:
Landmine exercises are incredibly versatile, targeting over 10 muscle groups, including your chest, quads, glutes, hamstrings, lower back, lats, shoulders, triceps, core muscles, forearms, and grip strength.

But this versatility comes at a price: without a proper program, you risk overtraining or neglecting certain muscle groups, which can lead to injury.
What to look for in a good program:
A well-designed landmine program will ensure balanced development, progressive overload, and proper rest intervals. It should also be tailored to your fitness level.
Here are some key things to look for:
- A mix of compound and isolation exercises:
Compound exercises work multiple muscle groups at once, while isolation exercises focus on a single muscle group.
A good program will incorporate both types of exercises to build overall strength and muscle definition. - Progressive overload:
This means gradually increasing the intensity of your workouts over time.
This is essential for muscle growth and strength gains.
A good program will provide clear instructions on how to do this, whether it's by adding weight, reps, or difficulty.

- Proper rest intervals:
Rest is just as important as exercise.
It's when your muscles repair and grow.
A good program will provide adequate rest intervals between sets and exercises.
Conclusion:
Don't dive into landmine workouts without a plan.
Seek a program that's as well-rounded as Arnold Schwarzenegger (and as effective).
Your body will thank you with strength, sculpted muscles, and a smile that says, "I've got this!"
And here is my heartfelt recommendations checking all the boxes above:
