The landmine sumo deadlift is an easier version of the standard form because it does not put as many restrictions on the weight you lift as compared to other variations involving free-weights. If you find traditional deadlifts are too taxing for your posterior chain, you may include this exercise in your workout routine to train your gluteal muscles harder.

How to do Landmine Sumo Deadlift
Position a bar into the landmine and load it with appropriate weights (230-250 lb). Keeping one end of the bar between your feet, stand with a wider than shoulder-width stance with your feet pointing out.
Tips
- You may slightly lean forward to keep the weight on your toes and engage your glutes more.
- Push through the heels to thrust your hips up and lift the weight.
