How to Do Landmine Kneeling One Arm Shoulder Press
- 1Setup
Kneel on the floor facing the landmine attachment, with the barbell loaded and resting on the ground. Position yourself so the working shoulder is slightly offset from the bar, grasping the end of the barbell with an overhand grip, palm facing in.
- 2Setup
Bring the end of the barbell to rest on the front of your working shoulder, with your elbow tucked slightly forward and your forearm vertical. Ensure your core is braced, hips are stable, and your torso is upright.
- 3
Exhale as you powerfully press the barbell upward and slightly forward, extending your arm until your elbow is fully locked and the weight is directly overhead. Keep your core tight to prevent any torso rotation or arching.
- 4
Inhale as you slowly and with control lower the barbell back down to the starting position on your shoulder. Maintain tension in your shoulder throughout the eccentric phase.
Tips
- Actively brace your core and glutes throughout the movement to maintain a stable torso and prevent unwanted rotation or hyperextension of your lower back.
- Keep your elbow slightly tucked forward during the press, avoiding excessive flaring out to the side, which can put undue stress on the shoulder joint.
- Focus on a full range of motion, pressing the weight until your arm is fully extended overhead and lowering it completely back to the shoulder.
- Control the eccentric (lowering) phase of the movement, resisting the weight as it comes down to maximize muscle engagement and build strength.
Common Mistakes
- ×Arching the lower back excessively to press the weight indicates a lack of core stability or too much weight; fix this by bracing your core tighter and potentially reducing the load.
- ×Jerking the weight up using momentum from your hips or torso reduces the effectiveness for the shoulder; instead, initiate the press purely with your shoulder and triceps in a controlled manner.
- ×Letting the elbow flare out wide during the press can strain the shoulder; keep your elbow tracking forward and slightly inward to maintain optimal joint alignment.
