Complete Guide to Landmine Training

When training for fitness or performance, you have an array of equipment to choose from. Unfortunately, pain or limitations related to the knees, hips, lower back, or shoulders can limit your options with dumbbells, barbells, or machines. The need for an alternative way to load the body in unique, joint-friendly positions is at the heart of why the landmine was created.

Complete Guide to Landmine Training is the ultimate resource for everything you need to know about this powerful training device. Renowned coaches David Otey and Joe Drake break down the science behind landmine training, why it works, where it is most effective, and how you can immediately begin to reap its benefits. Inside the book you will find the following:

• 82 exercises for the upper body, lower body, full body, and core, with coaching cues and modifications, including countless options for training around restrictions
• 35 workouts to train for total body conditioning, advanced conditioning, hypertrophy, strength, and power that feature options for using the landmine alone or in combination with other equipment
• The foundations of program design to help you understand training principles that can be applied to any workout, not just those using a landmine

Don’t get stuck in the same old routine. Complete Guide to Landmine Training is the secret to adding versatile, joint-friendly workouts to your training.
