I don't think that's as impressive because when your legs are further apart you have a little bit of a better Leverage and your legs don't travel as far as of a distance which means there's less range of motion and some sort of sense the Sumo deadlift kind of helps make the wait easier to pull than having to bend all the way over with your feet shoulder width apart using your whole entire lower back and all your muscles your offering your lower body to stabilize the weight and pull the weight if the guy did a full straight leg or regular deadlift then yeah I would say that is a commendable effort and I look at that also as if he's trying to do it Sumo Style he's going to try to make other people think that this weight is going to be easier to pull next thing you know everyone else is going to be doing it Sumo and that's going to count as a full deadlift which is not if anything that's more likely to be half a rep so he should only get half the credit for doing half of rep. Does that make sense well if it doesn't to you. you have no sense. To begin with. I guarantee if that guy was doing a deadlift full range of motion he would be throwing up bleeding out of his eyes and nose like at all of us with a Jacked heart rate and he is not even the same weight as Ed Hall. Which doesn't deserve the video promotion and air time it received. It was not very impressive.

Im a conventional puller but I do pull sumo as well and they are very different muscle groups. It’s still pulling the weight from the ground too lock out . I train both because I don’t wanna be weaker at any lifts. I totally agree conventional is harder. But it’s evolution of the sport that keeps raising the bar no pun intended 😂
Classy statement from Hall. Also, I'm pretty comfortable saying that he would have pulled more than 400kg sumo if that was the stance he normally trained in.

Fairly big gap for me. 275 conventional, 305 sumo. That's an extra 66lbs. You have to keep in mind Eddie is a much larger, less flexible lad. His pure size gets in the way. That's why 160lb golfers can hit the ball further than big jacked bodybuilders. The bodybuilders can't get their biceps around their chest to get maximum trunk rotation. That doesn't mean the golfer has better rotational strength, because if a bodybuilder and a golfer competed in hammer throw it wouldn't even be a competition.

@@jmca_power there will always be some degree of variation. High/low bar is not binary, it's also a range of everything in between. So it's harder to regulate.

Strongmen aren't built for sumo. Watch the latest Jeff Nippard video about sumo where he shows the % breakdown between sumo and conventional across weight classes. The higher you go up in weight and height, the less you see sumo. At the top weight classes where competitors are usually also quite tall, nearly nobody pulls sumo. Skeletal structure and leverages decide what stance is best for each athlete.

Strongman implements don't work for sumo because a lot of them are raised like a block pull, so some people would be starting their sumo deadlift above the knee. Size isn't the only an issue you have 80kg,90kg,105kg classes as well. Also I think strongman is more about putting a show on for the general population, Conventional deadlift just looks cooler while sumo looks kinda cringe.

Sumo is MUCH more dependant on skill/technique and mobility. Whenever I don't train sumo for a while, it just goes to shit. Conv on the other hand is never an issue. Also seen that with quite a few people, not being able to pull well sumo, that is. On the other hand, I only really know one person who pulls significantly more sumo than conv (as in more than a 10-15% difference).

If you stop at the kneecap with sumo then it’s not a complete lift. You go past the kneecap with both styles.
Anyone who's followed Eddie knows he takes these things well. He's given respect to judges in competition for giving him no reps and when he does have an issue, it's with the principle e.g. Thor lifting 501 in his home gym, not sanctioned or in comp.
Where is the official confirmation (by an independent judge/organisation) that confirmed the weights?
I love sumo over deadlift mainly because it forces you to use more of your leg strength than conventional (at least for me). The differences in ROM won’t matter when you actually do heavy weight with both and notice how both give you a workout in different areas.
I mean, Eddie never ever trained for powerlifting, so he never had to get sumo technique down and that imo is the main thing for that much of difference
Jamal hit 500kg recently
Eddie was also impress that Krzysztof Wierzbicki lifted 502.5 kg at a weight of around 105 kg. I personally don't care about the conventional vs sumo debate because either way lifting that kind of weight off the floor is impressive. I say this as my sumo was much stronger than my conventional, but I still needed to lift my sumo the same distance as my conventional because I have super short arms on a 6 foot 4 body frame
I thought sumo is really easy, because everybody says it..but if eddie hall the beast himself says it like that, i will accept it :)
I have always done slightly better at sumo than conventional. Mainly because of my knee that will seriously hurt with conventional lifts. The wide stance allows less pressure towards the damaged meniscus, so I rather do that.

Eddie can’t pull sumo as strong because he doesn’t have the leverages and bodily weight distribution for it; that doesn’t mean people who do have a body built for sumo aren’t cheating the system. It’s like when super archers bench 100+ pounds more than when they do real bench press, it’s a different lift at that point.

theres a difference between casually posting 500kg lifts online vs actually competing for the official world record online, officially, in your basement. I guess your brain doesnt have the capability to think deeply yet, you'll get there buddy.

When powerlifters daddy says sumo is ok, now they all on board. Pussaaboy
I love Eddie, but... Yes it's a heavy lift, but it is not impressive. It's annoying that you said he outpulled Bjornson. He didn't.
The reason Eddie's sumo isn't good is because he's trained the neural pathways for traditional deadlifts, changing up the CNS power output in an untrained way is going to have far less power. Tldr: he's overtrained for traditional,
That kind of lift needs alot of juice 💪💪💪💪
Not sure what's more impressive over 500kg sumo or counting to 10

You're only strong what you train for. If you trained Sumo your whole lifting career, you're not going to do well conventional..and vice versa. . Sumo is mechanically advantageous because it's less taxing on cns (better recovery), bar is closer to your center mass, and it gives you better floor position pulling with an upright back. If you're new in powerlifting, Sumo is the way to go unless you have poor bio mechanics to lift it
Sumo is not impressive no matter what weight.... It needs to be a separate lift as not accociated with conventional, just like we wouldn't compare and merge lifts from a smiths machine and free weights... as one is easier than the other 🤷♂️
