Barbell Sumo Deadlift
Stance width can vary with a sumo DL. Some prefer toes near the plates. Others prefer a more narrow stance to get more drive off the floor. Make sure your arms are inside your legs. The bar should be just over your mid-foot. Flatten your back and push your heels into the floor. Try to extend your knees and hips simultaneously.
