The sumo deadlift starts with your feet wider than squat width and a very upright torso. Compared to a conventional deadlift, you’ll be using much more of your glutes for this. Many powerlifters prefer this technique over a conventional deadlift because the bar doesn’t have to travel as far off the ground. These sets of 3 are touch-and-go – no resets in the bottom.
The metcon should be treated as a sprint – a quick 500m row, 30 burpees as quickly as you can, and then 20 power cleans.
