Sumodeadlift form

[pommy]

I was at the gym earlier doing sumo deadlifts, when some guy told me my form was wrong. When I asked how to fix it he went away. I'm not sure why he would bother telling me it was wrong and not help me fix my form,but from the picture does my form look ok? And if not, is there any input on how to pull one off properly? Thanks.

No way to tell, without video, but the lock out looks good, no hyperextending the back.

He told you something because you're a woman and pry lift more weight than him. Next time tell him to fuck off.

He probably thought you were trying to do regular deadlifts. If you do a high pull with the SD you can really fuck yourself up. I learned the hard way. IMO, I would just stick to the tried and true regular DL.

Thanks for letting me know. I do both sd and regular dl , is that dangerous? I enjoy doing them both. And if sd are bad I'll just stick to the regular deadlifts. Thanks again!

I don't think the SD in itself is inherently dangerous, it is when you execute the high pull that causes the risk to injury. The Sumo DL Highpull is a move popularized by Crossfit that can cause shoulder inpingement and can fuck your rotator cuff to high hell. Take this all FWIW, if you like SDs keep doin them.

I like that pic BTW, that guy in the red is totally checking out your ass.

Tough to tell in that one. We will need..um...at least another 2 dozen pics from various angles

The guy in the red is a regular at the gym. After I was done with my set he told me I would look hot wearing satanic clothing.

That looks like one crowded gym. I am not sure I would like that.

Hard to tell with out a video. In regards to form and deadlifts, it's one big pissing contest.

IMO where you are going to get hurt first is while lowering it to the ground. Judging by the equipment and location, you probably train where you are not allowed to drop the weight at the top while some dumb shit says "if you can't control it, you can't lift it". Sure buddy, next time you're pulling 500+ I want to see you set it down nicely! LOL yes I hate globo gyms but I digress.

Universal cues to keep in mind:
-Weight in heels
-Shoulders above or behind the bar
-Tight lower back 100% of the time, but its ok if your thoracic/upper back rounds especially on maximal lifts.
-Scrape your shins, keep the bar close

Also know that the belt is for increased support through increased intra-abdominal pressure. Look up the Valsalva manuever.

315 is a good pull for you. nice work.
