>mfw i find out people have been doing sumos to get to their

if you:
>use hook grip
>sumo stance
>drop the weight on any of the reps
>round the back
you didn't DL that weight. you cheated yourself and others if you told them you did that weight when you clearly had improper form

>inb4 some fag with weak grip strength, back muscles, and leg muscles complains that this isn't fair
put the weight up the real way or just fuck off kid

>>41694587
you have to go back

I got an old injury in my lower back, slipped disc.
Sumo means I can deadlift kind of, conventional goes straight to pain for me
Forever seen as ego lifter

>>41694603
>he can't DL with proper form
lmao

>>41694587
I bet you do weighted dips too

Seriously this.

I worked hard to finally get to that 4pl8 dead. Then people are telling me they do it too and i see a fucking sumo?

Well fuck you

>>41694615
>proper form
u really have to go back

Powerlifting competitions disagree with you. A sumo DL counts just as much as a conventional DL. Some people can DL more conventional, and some can DL more in sumo. It depends on your body (leg lenght vs torso/arm lenght)

Do whatever feels better

>Deadlift
>The most pure lift
>Form Nazis still discrediting everybody who doesn't do it like them.
>Using your body parts to pick up the weight off the floor and lock out doesn't count as completing the lift.

Seriously, what the fuck?

Sumo is more functional for real life.

>Recently started new job
>Heavy physical labor, often have to pick up heavy boxes or bricks off the floor
>Pretty much always use wide leg stance to pick up the heavy items.

Seriously who the fuck picks up irregular objects off the floor conventional DL style?

>>41694587
I think you mean mixed grip

>>41694818
I do this too, I feel like theres too much strain on my knees picking shit up conventional DL style.

that being said I deadlift with the conventional stance

ITT: Sumocuck Lanklets attempting to rationalize their shitty lift

>>41694818
I did, since I had to unload trucks and there wasn't any space. Refilling the trucks was pretty much clean and jerk.

>>41694818
People who dont have shit tier jobs

>>41694667
And powerlifting comps allow for ridiculous back arch eliminating the rom of a bench to almost nothing

Whats your point?

ITT : manlets and femurlets

>>41694613
Me too man. The only way I can deadlift pain free is sumo.

This. Raise your fucking standards.

>>41695487

Hook grip is more cheating than mixed grip.

>>41694537
Neither does seated OHP. You either stand or don't do it.

>>41696589

This.
To anyone who does seated OHP, do you sit down to pee too?

>>41694587
>>use hook grip
Mixed grip? Hook grip is fine mate

>>41696553
Lolno, so you're doing mixed Shit alright

Semi related to thread topic

Whenever I try to diddy heavy, I always get pain at hips.
It's only when I release the weight too; finish set, drop bar, stand back up and pain
I'm 6'4 so I tried widening my stance, changing feet angle, stretching and nothing works.
>pls help

>>41694587
Add
>if you use a crossgrip

>>41694818
That's true but it's much more effective to train lowbar and conventional. When these go up your sumo will automatically go up.

>>41696725
Try raising your ass up some.
