How to Do Landmine Deadlift

Form Cues

1. 1

   Stand over the end of the barbell, hinge down and grip it with both hands between your legs, drive through the hips to stand tall

2. 2

   Think about pushing the floor away rather than lifting the bar

3. 3

   Keep the bar close to your body throughout the pull, not drifting forward

4. 4

   Set your back flat before initiating the pull, same as any deadlift variation

Common Mistakes

• ●

  Pulling with the back instead of driving through the hips — keep the chest up and hinge from the hips

• ●

  Rounding the lower back at the setup — reset with a flat back before pulling

• ●

  Jerking the bar off the floor instead of taking the slack out smoothly first
