Training Tips Done Right with D1: Landmine Split Jerk

In this video, Coach Chris from D1 Training Cool Springs demonstrates the proper movement for a Landmine Split Jerk. This is an exercise that will help build upper body strength and explosive power.

This movement is great for athletic training but is also a functional movement that translates to everyday life. Coach Chris says, “The landmine split jerk is also a safer alternative to traditional barbell lifts and can be modified for different fitness and mobility levels.”

There are multiple variations of the Landmine Split Jerk.

• In this video, Chris demonstrates starting from a front-racked position.
• He uses a barbell attached to a landmine to perform the split jerk movement, targeting the shoulders, triceps, upper back, quads, glutes, and hamstrings.
• Be sure to focus on moving the bar quickly from your front-racked position, into full extension.

Proper form is extremely important to get the most out of your exercise and avoid injury.
