DLs are for strength and so you don't fuck your shit up doing other lifts. Nobody but /fit/ fags gives a shit about how buff your lower back is.

Conventional; sumo will blow up your hamstrings a bit more.

isn't it better to target legs more?

I think sumo doesn't hit upper back more too

what about them forearm gains? and obliques for that fridge mode

Backs are highly overlooked; women care more about back than legs and about as much as arms. Honestly, shitty arms can be made up for with a wide as fuck back. Sumo does hit legs
a bit more than back, but the benefits of huge legs vs. a huge back are preference; most will prefer a more developed back considering most who do deadlifts already hit legs with squats.

all overrated and all can be done through other exercices. You think Olympia winners give a shit about deadlifts ?

>>35280280

Many of them have been prodigious deadlifters, as it happens.

Yup. Ronnie never pulled a single plate. Nor did Cutler. Nor did Yates. Or Arnold. Or... Oh wait, this sarcasm is too obvious.

girls don't care about lower back though even the grabbers

if I can hit the lower back less so I can hit upper back and legs more I'd be pretty happy, Gives better aesthetics while still allowing me to deadlift

>giving a shit what girls think
