That's where the muscle comes from. Everybody can lift weights. But what type of rest and food regimen does it take to fuel these gains is more than half the battle. Next is proper stretching/ recovery. Technique is up there too but honestly thats debateable because not everyone is looking to get huge or break records. Just stay safe and healthy. @AlfieU74
Jamal is the top 0.1% of deadlifters. He can pull 900+ in both. Conventional is king, no debate. Sumo is a good technique but let's call it what it is, it's not conventional. Separate category.
It's not as simple as that, hip anatomy plays a huge part in how an individual should lift. Deadlift is a hip hinge test of strength, glutes are the primary mover of the hip, and for some people, the glute is strongest in a semi plane of movement between lateral hip extension, hip external rotation and hip extension. Conventional deadlifts almost eliminate 2 of those movements, primarily moving in a hip extension, which shifts the load onto other auxiliary hip movers. If you are convincing someone to train or perhaps even coaching someone, I hope you take into consideration that the individual you are working with has different limb proportions and muscle attachment points. Movement assessment and proper exercise prescription is king.
People sleep on this man's talent in deadlift. I believe he is the only man to have ever competed in a Giants Live deadlift competition being sub 240 pounds body weight and still making it to the 1000 pound lift along with the rest of the world strong men being 3 to 400 pounds in body weight. He did this conventional as well.
Tbh Jamal really isn’t a sumo lifter. He’s a jack of all trades. A sumo lifter exclusively pulls sumo and the difference between conventional and sumo is night and day. I believe he can pull 1000 conventional is he wanted to, but he already said he don’t wanna fry his back. Most sumo lifters pull twice as much sumo as they do conventional and they have a super wide stance
At the top level, it is not unusual for powerlifters who compete with elite sumo deadlifts to have elite conventional deadlifts. Green, Woolam, Grigsby all come to mind as lifters who pull over 800lb in both stances. Nobody who pulls 800lb sumo in competition is limited to 400lb conventional since hip extensor, spinal extensor, and grip strength are critical to performance in both stances.
I’m so torn about switching to sumo as my form breaks down when I go heavy and is affecting my other lifts but I’ve tried sumo and i can’t pull as much and it will take getting used to and obviously the hate of sumo is Getting in my head 😂
No he didn't. The more mechanically advantaged you are for deadlifts the less a wide sumo stance deadlift is indicative of real strength. Jamal is strong in both stances. Many sumo pullers specifically the most mechanically advantaged ones are not. Also Jamal has a very moderate sumo stance. The sumo puller's most people have problems with have their feet out so far they almost get smashed when dropping the weight.
I've never understood the concept on various arguments. Bodybuilders aim for muscle hypertrophy and not strength, powerlifters the opposite. Bodybuilders have more strict diet compared to powerlifters and let's not get into strongmen. Then you got strongmen versus powerlifters, a strongman can easily get into powerlifting whereas a powerlifter will struggle into strongman. Then it's sumo vs conventional and the list goes on and on. What Jamal said though is important, core stability. Exercises like heavy deadlifts and squats require a strong core and I doubt bodybuilders have as strong core as powerlifters or strongmen. Also, exercises such as deadlift, flat bench press and barbell squat aren't 100% part of a bodybuilder's arsenal; rack pulls, Romanian deadlifts, incline press, pendulum, hack, and smith machine squats are more preferred. As for sumo vs conventional, I agree with Jamal's approach; strength is strength. I've always felt back when I trained for strength that sumo only wins when it comes to repetitions. My best lift was 120kg back in the day which, to me, is amazing since I was mostly training with kettlebells and the highest load was 40kg, therefore double 40kg ones. I also managed to press a 36kg with my right hand and I could perform the Turkish get up on both hands with a 36kg kettlebell. I miss those days. What will always remain same for me is that once I go to the gym, and I can't wait till the gym opens again in September (nowadays I am following a functional approach), and it's why I don't feel I need pre is that even if my day sucks or if I've had a blast, once I am done I'll be exhausted but pleased and during the workout my mood gets better and better. Cheers :).
no- how you obtain your muscle is relatively the same across competitors. How you use it for competitive purposes is obviously different across competitors. However, body composition does matter for powerlifting- we know that the shortest, leanest, lifter in a weight class usually wins. Which means having more muscle and less fat is key to placing well. a lot of bodybuilders would be good powerlifters, and a lot of powerlifters would be good bodybuilders. adding muscle and increasing your strength over time is essential to both,.
I don't know why people throw shade at his summo lift. They try to make it out like it's easy or something. I've been competing in powerlifting since 2008 using conventional. I just switched to training summo this year and it's WAY harder off the floor. I've already passed out and shit myself and that's never happened while I was training conventional
Aight we get conventional is harder but when the numbers on his sumo is many people’s total then it’s crazy. Also I respect his sumo more since it’s not too wide. AND he hit 1003 conventional
Jamal is strong but couldn't get 1000lbs up to his knees doing it conventional yet goes and does 1103lbs no problem sumo, yet people are going to say its not easier, and then they will say "why cant the conventional deadlifts pull more sumo?" ignoring the fact that the only people who benefit from sumo are those who do it specifically and can get so upright that the movement turns into a rack pull combined with a quarter squat. powerlifting is fun but its a fucking joke, there's a reason people like Jamal and Krzysztof couldn't even think about strongman and the fact is they aren't strong enough yet they can "deadlift" more. Point is sumo deadlift is a numbers game not a test of strength.
of course not: a conventional deadlift goes through a further range of motion. you might argue it requires more back and grip strength compared to sumo.
Another video of someone loving themselves. Great hard work, bruv. The thing is , there are way too many videos out there now of oh look at me and see what I can do. I'm not a hater, but there are to many of these people around.
A sumo record is like having the jefferson record or behind the back record. Sure, it's fun to say, but you'll never be able to say im the best deadlifter on the planet.
@Kobethornton1234 He definitely had straps in that video. I tried looking him up on the all time deadlift leader boards and can't find him anywhere? Maybe because he's not one of the best deadlifters in the world, even in sumo!😂
