Double Landmine Incline Chest Block Tutorial: A Jack Burton Guide to Fitness Glory

Hey there, folks. Jack Burton here, your friendly neighborhood trucker, stepping away from the asphalt jungle and into the world of iron and sweat. So, you wanna know about the Double Landmine Incline Chest Block, huh? Well, buckle up, because ol’ Jack’s gonna take you on a ride through the ins and outs of this chest-thumping exercise, with a little help from my good buddy, the legend himself, Rob Shoecraft from Three Storm Fitness.

What’s in the Name? Double Landmine Incline Chest Block Explained

Now, before you get your knickers in a twist trying to figure out what a Double Landmine Incline Chest Block is, let ol’ Jack break it down for you in terms you can understand. Imagine, if you will, a workout that feels like wrestling a wild boar with your chest muscles. This exercise is like the alternative universe cousin of the chest fly machine. You don’t need a fancy machine here, just a couple of barbells, a landmine setup, and the grit to make it happen.

Rob, my old pal, likes to say it’s about the recruitment of those chest muscles, and boy, does it recruit ‘em. You get the pump of a lifetime, almost like you’ve been bench pressing small trucks. And believe me, Rob knows his stuff, being the master of all things landmine-related.

Setting Up for Success: The Jack Burton Way

Alright, partner, here’s where we get technical. You’re gonna need some space, some barbells, and a couple of landmines. Rob’s got this setup dialed in, using what he calls the “Gnarly Handles.” Now, I’m not entirely sure what makes them gnarly, but if Rob says they are, then they’re gnarly enough for me.

Think about platforms set at different heights – 38 inches up front and 48 inches in the back – like you’re building a fortress of fitness. You’re gonna be pushing and pulling like you’re working the gears on my old Pork-Chop Express. Remember to play around with the angles, make it feel right, like finding that sweet spot on a long stretch of highway.

Executing the Exercise: Feel the Burn

Now, here’s where the real magic happens. You get yourself set up, hands on those bars, and you start moving. It’s a smooth motion, like shifting gears. Rob recommends doing a couple of reps without the weights first – it’s like test-driving a new rig, making sure nothing’s gonna fall off when you hit top speed.

As you press those bars together and lift, think about squeezing a couple of horned demons between your hands. Keep the tension, keep pressing, keep that iron spirit alive. And before you know it, your chest will be singing a victory song of muscle and might.

Bonus Round: A Cousin of the Press

And because no journey is complete without a detour, Rob’s got a bonus exercise for ya. It’s like a side quest in an epic saga. It’s a press that’s sort of related to the landmine setup, like a distant cousin you only see at family reunions. You lower down, keep that tension, and press up. Rob swears by it, and if it’s good enough for ol’ Rob, it’s good enough for you.

Now, don’t expect to nail this on your first try. Like everything worth doing, it takes practice and a bit of muscle memory. But ol’ Jack’s here to tell you, keep at it, and you’ll be pressing like a pro before long.

Wrapping It Up: Wisdom from the Road

So there you have it, folks. The Double Landmine Incline Chest Block, a testament to innovation and the kind of grit that keeps the world turning. Rob says it’s a great substitute for those fancy machines, and I’m inclined to agree. Just remember, the best workouts aren’t about the equipment – they’re about the spirit you bring to the bench.

Remember what ol’ Jack Burton always says at a time like this: “It’s all in the reflexes.” You get those muscles firing right, and you’re halfway there. So next time you’re in the gym, or maybe just in your garage, give this a try. And remember, if you ever run into trouble, just ask yourself what Rob Shoecraft would do – chances are, it involves more iron and a lot of sweat.

Until next time, keep your eyes on the road, your hands on the wheel, and your heart full of courage. See ya out there, pal.
