Step by step instructions, muscle activation and variants for the Landmine Standing Side Bend.
The Landmine Standing Side Bend uses one end of a barbell secured in a landmine attachment to provide a natural arc of resistance for lateral flexion. It effectively isolates the obliques with a controlled, joint-friendly range of motion.
The Landmine Standing Side Bend is a foundational movement that builds strength and muscle through controlled, progressive overload. Train it 1 to 2 times per week with 3 to 5 working sets per session, gradually adding weight or reps as form holds up.
