exercise_detail.description
The Landmine Half Kneeling One Arm Shoulder Press is an exercise that targets the shoulder muscles, particularly the deltoids, while also engaging the core for stability. This exercise utilizes a landmine setup, which is a barbell anchored at one end, allowing for a unique pressing angle that can reduce strain on the shoulder joint.
exercise_detail.how_to_perform
- Begin by setting up a barbell in a landmine attachment or securely in a corner.
- Kneel on one knee with the opposite foot flat on the ground in front of you, forming a 90-degree angle at both knees.
- Hold the end of the barbell with the hand on the same side as your kneeling leg, keeping your core engaged and torso upright.
- Press the barbell upward and slightly forward until your arm is fully extended, keeping your wrist straight and elbow slightly bent at the top.
- Slowly lower the barbell back to the starting position with control.
- Complete the desired number of repetitions before switching sides.
exercise_detail.tips
- Keep your core tight throughout the movement to maintain balance and stability.
- Focus on pressing through your shoulder rather than using momentum from your legs or torso.
- Ensure your elbow stays under your wrist during the press to maintain proper alignment.
- Breathe out as you press the barbell up and inhale as you lower it back down.
- Start with a lighter weight to master form before progressing to heavier loads.
