Strong lifts man.

Why do you use that stance though? It looks like you could just pull sumo and reduce the distance you have to lift by a whole lot.

Some people can pull somo, some cant, it isnt for everyone.

Nice lifts op

Yeah but his legs are far enough apart that he can stick his arms between them, rather than do the nearly snatch grip that he has in that video.

I am not denying that he is strong; its just an odd stance, is all.

I just cant pull sumo, I know my stance is strange ....I ve tried and cant get more than a 440 lb sumo, besides my tight rubs my hand open, I ve dropped many sumos.


Thanks guys!

I also belive my "wider" grip allows me to have greater starting power from my strongest point( upper back/traps) thus helping my break off the floor faster.

I thought you were claiming a 600lbs + deadlift in your sig before. Is that why your sig doesn't have all those stats in it anymore?

[erikhutson]

strong lift, I also use a wise grip when reg deadlifting, just more comfortable
