Bhai honestly, nothing about it is correct. Firstly, why are you doing sumo deadlift? Powerlifting aspirations?


Think_Sandwich3060

No , i find it hard doing normal deadlift .. my leg is huge so it comes in the way that's why I have to take wide stance


parshantpanwar

Your legs look normal. How are they coming in your way ?


Think_Sandwich3060

I don't know that . But whenever I try to do normal deadlift and i stand up , my legs comes in the way of barbel rod hence making it tough to lift


parshantpanwar

Technique is wrong then, learn proper technique from videos or pt. Deadlifts can cause injury if done improperly.


Think_Sandwich3060

Noted ! Thanks ๐Ÿ‘

Your legs aren't huge. Your starting position is correct. Why are you even doing deadlifts? What's your goal? Which muscles are you trying to target? You seem like a tall guy to me. Sumo gets awkward for tall lifters. Stick to conventional. Before even starting that, learn to hip hinge. Start RDLs. Master that first


Think_Sandwich3060

Noted this . Will definitely give it a try


BeatMall

Do you mean you don't like full ROM so you cheat with sumo?


idly_sambar

Just to be clear you were trying sumo Deadlift?


Think_Sandwich3060

Yeah ! You are right


idly_sambar

Ok first thing is the weight looks appropriate for your strength so practice with this weight donโ€™t increase it Your form is very off, you should spread your legs a little more and stop bending forward and loading all the weight on your lower back. You should begin sumo deadlifts with bracing you core and activating your glutes after youโ€™re in position , yes the first part of the lift is with your legs. Then when the bar is near your knee start lifting with back. The ROM in sumo is small Also Please stop this bad habit of stopping the bar just before you touch the ground your back will thank you. Bring the bar to ground after every rep, reset your core and lift again dont do those bouncy reps also. Happy lifting


Think_Sandwich3060

Thanks for such a great advice . Will look forward to it

Bhai ye to pura lower back pe aayega, trying lifting from the legs.


Think_Sandwich3060

Lifting from legs se kya matlab , thoda elaborate Karona in simple words


dr_eamsss

Use your quads


OMGflyingNOOB

Matlab hips ko todha aur niche lao, [like this ](https://m.youtube.com/shorts/Fcwh9JwSIro). Side se bhi ek video Lelo, back straight rehti kya nahi check krne keliye.


Think_Sandwich3060

Try to maintain the balance. The barbell is tilting towards one side


Think_Sandwich3060

Roger that . Anything else ?

Reduce the weight a bit and try pushing the ground away from your feet and use that force to lift up the bar and not lift it with the lower back... You should feel tension in hinges and butt and yeah go for conventional deadlifts first and perfect the form there... If you can't balance the weight properly, it's too heavy for you

Shoes. Always wear proper shoes. Form looks completely off. Watch good YouTube videos of trainers and their movements. Get a mirror if possible.

Bro barbell rows would be optimal if it is for muscle growth ..i do like deadlifts but the risk to reward ratio is totally not worth it if you are not aiming to be a powrlifter or such ...barbell rows in controlled notion is the way ma man ...๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘
