'Renegade or Landmine exercises have become increasing popular over the last few years. They’re a core-focused movement that combines strength and mobility with a full-body exercise. Beginners can use just the bar and more advanced clients can add weight. MUSCLE GROUPS TARGETED -Core, Stabilizers, Quadriceps, Glutes, Hamstrings, Calves HOW TO PERFORM LANDMINE SQUATS: To enter the starting position, face the end of the bar and raise it to chest height. Feet should be about shoulder width apart, toes pointing slightly forward or out. Grip the end of the bar with your palms facing each other. The feet should be between hip and shoulder width apart, toes pointed slightly out, and the spine in a neutral position. The taller the client, the wider the stance. To begin, clients breath in and flex at the hip, like they’re going to sit in a chair, and lower themselves until the hip joint is below the knees. To perform the movement, clients exhale and drive through the surface of their foot to return to the starting position, squeezing their glutes at the top of the movement. The end of the bar should be pointing at the client’s sternum and remains in this position throughout the entire movement. To help prevent injuries, ensure clients at all fitness levels maintain proper form throughout all phases of the exercise.'
