A Fresh Look at the King of Lifts
The Sumo Deadlift
If you strength train, you have likely seen or performed a standard deadlift . With its emphasis on core stability, back strength, and clean technique, it is powerful and effective, and often the first Olympic lift people learn. Less common is the wide-stance, or Sumo deadlift, which shifts the emphasis to the legs and glutes. This, my friends, is the true King of lifts. It defines what functional, full-body strength is all about. The primary muscles used in this version of the deadlift are the erector spinae, gluteus maxiumus, adductor magnus, hamstrings, quadriceps and soleus while the rest of the body provides stabilization – it is a serious full-body move.
