Why you should do a landmine squat - squat variation for Low Back or Knee Pains
This is a tutorial for the landmine squat which is significantly more joint friendly than barbell back squats and therefore a better ’squat’ variation for a lot of people.
A few reasons why:
- The front loaded position allows for a more upright torso position (less stress on the low back).
- The arcing motion of the bar forces you to ’sit back’ which unloads the knees and effectively loads the glutes and hamstrings.
- The goblet position of the bar against the chest places the shoulders into a much more joint friendly, stable position.
