Thread: Sumo Deadlift!

I tried sumo a few times to add something different in but I really didn't like how they felt. I went through some form videos etc but it always felt wrong when I did it.

Yeh bro most of the time its either one way or the other. Im thr opposite, conv always feels somewhat wrong. Actually i couldn't do conv untill i mastered sumo. Alot of it has to do with length of ur legs and trunk.

Both are perfectly acceptable and qualify as a lift in international and national powerlifting comps

My workout partner was a power lifter for years and uses the sumo style to deadlift as he has had 2 herniated disk. He still is strong as hell
