The landmine press is an effective upper-body pushing exercise that builds strength and muscle mass in the shoulders, triceps, scapula, and core. The landmine press can be performed one arm at a time (unilaterally) or bilaterally by gripping the barbell with both hands.

The exercise primarily targets the shoulders, chest, and triceps muscles, and also engages the core, back, and legs to provide stability throughout the movement. It involves holding one end of a weighted barbell with one or both hands while the other is placed in a fixed position on the ground or in a landmine attachment.
