Rogue Monster Landmine 2.0
Landmines are great pieces of equipment that have a lot of versatility. However, they're also some of the most simplistic gear outside of a barbell. Today we discuss the Rogue Fitness Monster Landmine 2.0 and see if they continue the trend of over engineering equipment and if it's worth the price of admission.

Awesome!
Correct me if I'm wrong, but you could use this at any location on the rack. Therefore, you could use it for a viking press if you have an attachment, or other similar overhead pressing movements if you want.

Landmine by... Movado? "The best landmine attachment you can get...for 1" racks..." The most heavy duty/brutal landmine is the Hammer Strength Power Pivot (I have 2 of them) - the damn thing has 2 grease fittings and will f-up your hand if you try to pick it up by itself without thinking first! The Hammer Strength Power Pivot tends to be listed used for $399.00 (no, I did not pay that absurd price for mine)

The landmine is going to have to wait a little longer. I bought a deadlift bar out of the Boneyard today. Cerakote bar to boot. $285 with tax and shipping ain't bad. Over $100 saved. Hope it's as nice as my 20 kg Ohio Power Bar.

I’m really thinking about getting one of these but I have a PRX Profile Pro rack. I like that it’s easily removable, unlike PRX’s own, which bolts on. I can’t find much online about using different brand attachments on PRX folding racks. Anything I should be concerned about? Pretty sure the holes will fit.

I'm on the fence between the Kleva and Rogue monster 2.0. Roughly the same price but I can get the Rogue in 2 days vs 3 months for the Kleva. Rep's is a good price but I think the allen wrench screws are a deal breaker and I doubt I'll use the 1 inch bar section.

Hey Brandon. Between this and Kleva’s Adroit landmine for a Monster rack, which would you recommend? I know you said in this video that this is the best, but Kleva’s done a pretty good job marketing their Adroit landmine and Adam from Garage Gym Labs had good things to say about it.

Kleva is smooth AF and very aesthetic. However at the end of the day I found I prefer my Monster one more. The Kleva one bolts to the rack where the Rogue can be easily moved due to the knurled nut.

I picked one up just because last time I was shopping at rogue and I like it as a clean solution for a problem, particularly if you don’t have a specialty piece. You can shove it in the corner of the room but it’s going to eat your bar if you don’t have rubber everywhere and that’s most home gyms! Is it too much?! My garage gym is pretty rough on the floor. It works for ME. But.... my old commercial gym didn’t need this attention.

My original question of orientation was about if my rack set up is like so [=], Imagine those special font characters is a rack from a bird’s eye view. So (pretend) if I’m facing forward or back, which in bird’s eye view, would then be “up or down.” So with the landmine being in the bottom right hand corner (represented by a comma), typically you would use the landmine facing “down” (birds eye view) towards the front of the rack, however i have space limitations in the front, so could i use the bar to the “right” for example [=],___ pretend that the underscore is a barbell. So I would be using it to the “right” of the right of the rack at a 90degree angle.

Rogue makes nice equipment, but it's 11-gauge steel. If they wanted to "overbuild" their equipment, they would use 7-gauge steel, which is 50% stronger and thicker than 11-gauge (0.180 steel versus 0.120 steel, or 3/16" thick versus 1/8" thick). In contrast (for example), Samson equipment is all "overbuilt" from 7-gauge steel.
