did quite a bit of knocking steel stakes into hard ground today at work! So, grip was knackered and as i did squats yesterday thought it would be best to leave the gym for today sledge hammer is definatley more use than a treadmill. | |||

cheers! good to have a definate answer! and i can see the point about deadlifting cars and so on. do any of you strongman competers do sumo as part of your training anyway? | |||
» Sumo deadlifting in comps (Go to post) | 06-09-2010 @ 14:01 | ||
hey, was wondering if sumo deadlifting is sometimes not allowed in strongman comps? if so, why and how do they judge it to be one or the other? need to know as i hope to compete eventually and need to see which one i prefer. thanks in advance! |
