The whole discussion is, like most discussions on the internet, not nuanced enough, imho. Sumo is indeed biomechanically more efficient, because its more in the middle of the hip hinge/squat-spectrum. It behaves more like a trap-bar deadlift, because it spreads the workload evenly between leg- and hip-extension, meaning you can absolutely engage more total muscle mass when pulling. Conventional is much more on the hip hinge side of things, meaning you are more limitited by the strenth of your posterior chain, while quads dont contribunte that much to the movement. Also rom is shorter sumo. It is harder to learn, but easier because more efficient, once you got it going.

You're right 100% but I think it's important to point out that depending on leverages a narrow conventional stance will actually have significantly more quad engagement. Getting those knees over the bar as much as possible really changes things.
Sumo is harder for some people, conventional is harder for others. If one way was always easier, then no one would pull the harder way lmao.

Depends on each person body proportions, strengths and weaknesses. For some is an advantage and for others not so much.

i train almost exclusively sumo for about 3 years now and i can pull about 90-95% of my sumo max conventional, i had trained conventional for the first couple years i was lifting and switched after a car accident messed up my back, im very confident that if i train conventional it would be just as strong if not stronger but i favor sumo to minimize the risk of re-injury because of that compromising conventional position
There’s a reason why lifters suggest to start with conventional FIRST cause it’s easier to learn and easier to figure out the movement
Getting strong at sumo improved my squat!!
I trained sumo for 2 years, only managed to pull about 405 for a heavy single. As soon as I changed to conventional I did 405 for 3x7 reps and hit about 500 heavy single within a year.

It's funny that you never hear the strongest powerlifters, regardless of whether they pull conventional or sumo, say that sumo is cheating. Just insecure gymbros who have never competed or people who have never competed outsidd of a local meet.

once technique is good for sumo it's 100% cheating in my opinion
Mike’s conventional actually looks clean asf…
It's not cheating in competition. It's cheating yourself though.
I’m too high for the voice over lip sync 🤣🤣 it looks like that one movie where these brokers or salespeople on the phones have to put on “the voice” which is a white persons voice and it hella reminds me of that movie
The cheating is the bars that bend easily.
Yes it is
Bart ..you ever been on gear or in a cycle?
I've said it before, sumo not cheating. It's a different lift and not a deadlift. Sumo needs it's own category.

Not by your definition it's not. However, by the definition of a "deadlift", sumo is quite literally a deadlift. If you want it to be separate, you should push for the definition of a "deadlift" to include the hands being outside the shins.
most people that say "sumo is cheating or easier or doesn't count" have never tried to max out their sumo before to have any idea. and couldnt sumo pull their conventional max

I’ve always said that conventional is cheating because it’s easier 😂
If Sumo is more difficult to master, and hence it is more exclusive, but allows ppl to lift more weight for those who can, isn’t that the very definition of cheating?? Fewer ppl can do the thing that allows them to lift more?? Rather than standardising the deadlift form for competition??

By that logic, having better leverages for a lift is cheating because fewer people have it.

@@Micheldied In theory yes, but are you going to measure the exact block height for every individual? if you compare it to another sport like swimming, in theory you could add in a height class for ppl with a longer reach, but they don't make physical leverages a factor either, but the obvious form is the main thing, freestyle VS freestyle, butterfly VS butterfly, it only makes sense for conventional deadlift VS conventional, sumo VS sumo, it's not an equal comparison.
The issue is folks that does sumos and say they're doing regular deadlifts. It's cool to do sumos, you do you, but call it sumo deadlifts.
