I figured that is how you did them, as that is generally what I see when most people say landmine squat. I ran the chain from my belt squat to it and gave it a try a couple times. The issue I have is that I really have to get my feet elevated to get enough depth for my way to be effective and I run out of plates to stand on, as I need most for lifting. For your way, I have to find a safe way to get the bar up to my chest with that much weight on there. When I do landmine press with (3) 45's on the front I can feel some twinges when I pick the bar up and clear it to my chest. I couldn't imagine what it would feel like with 4-5 of them on there.
