None of our programs use the Landmine Row
It is in the app, so you can add it to any session and log it like anything else. It is just not written into one of our 50 free programs. If you want a upper back exercise that is, there are 13 on the Upper Back page.

What Landmine Row trains
Technique
How to do the Landmine Row
- Begin by standing with your feet shoulder-width apart and knees slightly bent. Position yourself so that the end of a barbell, anchored in a landmine attachment or a secure corner, is between your feet.
- Bend at the hips and knees to lean forward and grab the barbell with both hands using a v handle.
- Pull the barbell towards your chest by squeezing your shoulder blades together and bending your elbows.
- Lower the barbell back to the starting position with control, fully extending your arms. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions.
Form cues
Getting it right
- Exhale as you pull the barbell towards you and inhale as you lower it back.
- Ensure your feet are firmly planted and your stance is stable.
- Focus on squeezing your shoulder blades together to engage your middle back muscles.
