Landmine Thruster

Safety, efficiency, AND a heavy load while squatting and overhead pressing: Are you serious?  With the landmine thruster you better believe I am!  Here's how to get the job done.
​
by Keith Diedrich  

I went into yesterday's workout with a 5-day layoff from exercise and felt remarkably fresh. The break was inadvertent as I had traveled over the weekend and had caught a bit of a cold so I wanted to recover from that before attempting to workout again. I was in a bit of a predicament as I had missed a shoulder workout from the previous week and was slated to train legs as my first body part in the current week.  In giving this some thought, I aggressively elected to recruit both muscle groups in my first workout back to the gym!  Now I certainly wasn't going to do a full shoulder workout combined with a full leg workout--that would have been overkill.  However, I did  want to get the most bang for my buck with my first workout back and incorporating the landmine thruster was a sure-fire way to do this.  ​

    "My initial thought about Keith was that he seemed very casual and not as frenetic as other professionals.  I quickly learned that he was gauging my stamina, movements, and technique.  He wasn't after a fast burnout, but he wanted to exhaust every muscle every time. He said we were working on a "mind to body connection." With this connection I'd be able to gauge whether a set was 15 reps or 20 reps regardless of the initial "goal of 15!" I believe much of my gains came from Keith always seeing my potential even when I couldn't."  ~ Saul "Mr. Biceps"
