The Barbell Exercise That Hits Your Upper Chest and Smokes Your Shoulders
This barbell exercise hits your upper chest, targets your fast-twitch fibers, and smokes your shoulders

This landmine split switch press fires up your explosive fast-twitch muscle fibres and smokes your shoulders all at once.
The 45- to 60-degree pressing angle develops the often-neglected upper chest area. It’s also easier on the shoulders than a straight overhead press.
Adding the split switch component gets your lower body involved, while developing quickness, stability, and coordination. It’s a fantastic drill if you want to get a serious cardio and metabolic response in a short amount of time.
Try doing as many rounds of 5 to 10 reps per side in 5 to 10 minutes.
