🔥 The Sumo Deadlift — You’re Doing It the Wrong Way

Now that we have the sumo deadlift explanation out to of the way, let’s look how you’re doing it wrong.

It’s not a hip hinge!

The hip hinge is bandied about all over the internet and is killed on everything. It’s coached to death. It’s also not appropriate on many exercises. I am 100% sure that I’ll be getting comments from certified trainers telling me I am wrong. I’m not.

  • The low bar squat is a hip hinge.
  • The high bar squat is a hip hinge.
  • The conventional deadlift is a hip hinge.
  • The sumo deadlift is a knee hinge.

You are doing the Sumo Deadlift WRONG if you push your hips back first.

🔥The Sumo Deadlift — Here’s the Right Way

🔥Set Your Stance

Your feet need to be wide and your toes need to be out facing the bar so that your Angle of Q is optimal. Get your toes pointed towards the plates so that your femur and kneecap are in line with your toes.

🔥Turn Your Quads

Rotate your femur in the socket to line up your toes, knees, and feet.
It’s easy. Just turn your quads out.
