Our Approach
Our Approach: At Landmine University, we believe in the power of innovation and continuous learning. We have developed a comprehensive training program that integrates the best practices from various disciplines to create a dynamic and effective strength training experience. By combining Traditional Olympic lifts, Functional training techniques, and insights from the spinal engine theory, we offer a well-rounded approach to help individuals reach their fitness goals.
Education and Empowerment
One of our primary goals is to educate trainers and coaches in our unique approach to strength training. We understand that the fitness industry is constantly evolving, and it is crucial for professionals to stay updated with the latest techniques and methods. Through our comprehensive curriculum, we provide in-depth knowledge, practical training, and hands-on experience to equip trainers with the tools they need to excel in their careers.
Alternative to Traditional Lifts
While Traditional Olympic lifts have long been a staple in strength training, we recognize that they may not be suitable for everyone. Our program offers trainers and coaches an alternative perspective, introducing them to a diverse range of exercises that target specific muscle groups and movement patterns. By incorporating Functional training principles, we focus on enhancing overall strength, stability, and mobility, enabling individuals to achieve their fitness objectives in a safe and effective manner.
The Spinal Engine Theory
Central to our approach is the incorporation of the spinal engine theory. This theory emphasizes the importance of utilizing the natural movement patterns of the spine to generate power and efficiency in exercises. By understanding how the spinal engine functions, trainers can design workouts that optimize performance and minimize the risk of injury. Our program delves into the intricacies of the spinal engine theory, providing trainers with valuable insights that can revolutionize their training methodologies.
In addition to our workshops and courses, we also offer a two-day certification course to teach other coaches how to run the system and workshops themselves. This course provides coaches with a thorough understanding of our system and teaches them how to create and deliver effective workouts using our equipment. Upon completion, coaches are certified to run our workshops and deliver high-quality training to their own clients.
​
We are proud to have received numerous counts of recognition for our training, courses, and commitment to the fitness industry. This has led to many publications like Men's Health, or podcast opportunities like with Mark Bell. However, our greatest achievement is the positive feedback we receive from our Coaches. We are grateful for their trust and loyalty, and we are committed to continuing to exceed their expectations.
In addition to providing exceptional products and services, we are also dedicated to giving back to our community. We support various training initiatives, youth camps, clinics and are committed to making a positive impact on our neighborhoods.
​
At Landmine University, we are excited about the future and are committed to continuing to innovate and lead in our industry. Thank you for considering us as your fitness education partner.
