    Everybody talks about the benefits of pulling sumo, but I have to say as a person with long limbs and a short torso that even if I practiced sumo for a ridiculous amount of time, I will always pull more conventionally. Your individual bone structure plays a huge role in choosing your deadlift stance.

      Nostradingus Yes, but you should pull conventional because sumo will get you GREAT carry over, even if your sumo is way less then your conventional, it will make your conventional go up.

    • @HaarisMajidTraining1
      @HaarisMajidTraining1 9 лет назад +5

    • @bulkingdude1959
      @bulkingdude1959 9 лет назад +2

      I can't speak for others, but for me I don't think sumo is a accessory for the squat or conventional. I am personally much stronger at sumo than conventional, but it is really hard on my hips and groin so I only pull sumo once every two to three weeks. I focus on snatch grip deads and stiff legs to build my sumo. I just feel personally sumo fucks with my squat to much to us it as an accessory.

    • @Masterofmonotony
      @Masterofmonotony 9 лет назад

      Bulking dude
      Yeah especially if you squat with alot of hips, it will mess with your other lift that uses the same muscles there is no question about it.

    This is how I deadlift been doing it for years. I am 6'3 and this lift actually saves a lot pf wear and tear on my back. On some jobs when heavy lifting is required they teach you wide stance back straight. Sumo style helps you maintain your center of gravity better and you use more of your legs rather than your back but sumo is not for everyone.

    • @thegnome9529
      @thegnome9529 2 года назад

      I agree. Im 17 and have been working out for 3 weeks now. I tried sumo first time today and when i failed a normal 130 kg deadlift i went straight for sumo and got it up quite easy. Idk if its because i have very long legs and arms with a short torso but it just felt reqlly nice

    Bart Kwan I noticed that with Larry's sumo, his quads are just about parallel to the floor, yet other instructors from other videos showcase a more (higher) 30-45 degree bend between the knees and the hips. How do you determine which is ideal? experimentation? Are there pros and cons to these varying stances? Thanks

    • @markf12121
      @markf12121 9 лет назад

      The Electrocist I assume it all comes down to hip mobility and being able to get into a position were his quads are parallel to the floor and I would also think that limb lengths come into play aswell as stance width to get your quads parallel to the floor.

    • @boxlad7583

    This is one of the best videos I’ve seen on sumos, this is how I do them but many videos I’ve seen on RUclips the body isn’t kept as upright and looks more similar to a conventional deadlift in terms of how the back looks. Good to see this version though as I think this takes the weight off the back

    I hare sumo but evertime I do conventional especially over 405 for reps my back starts giving me issues so I guess I'll give sumo a chance which is the only choice I have left really.
