Sometimes the lift you need isn’t the one you’d choose.
Pin pulls weren’t part of the plan Friday.
But as soon as we started talking, brought them up.
He saw the weak point before I even said anything.
That’s the part most people miss —
you don’t always pick the right stress for your own limitations.
Left to yourself, you’ll usually train what feels strong, what feels familiar, what you can move well.
But progress doesn’t come from that.
It comes from putting yourself directly in the position you avoid or break down in.
Pin pulls forced me to work exactly where I lose position.
Not more weight.
Not more effort.
Just the right problem.
That’s the value of having another set of eyes —
not motivation, not hype… just clarity.
Thank you Troy!
The double landmine press isn’t just a shoulder exercise it’s a smarter way to press.
Compared to traditional overhead work, the angled path reduces stress on the shoulders and lower back.
You’re not forcing yourself into end-range positions you may not actually control, you’re working with your structure instead of against it.
For longevity, that matters.
Because it’s not just about how much you can press, it’s about how much you can keep pressing without breaking down.
Less wear and tear means:
- more consistent training
- fewer flare-ups
- longer progress timelines
You can still load it.
You can still train it hard.
But you’re doing it in a way your body can sustain.
Train with purpose. Perform for life.
