Another issue with gripping directly under your shoulders is depending on the person there may be no knurling which for some can make it considerably harder to grip.

Excellent video fam. Thank god you, gibbs, candito, hancott are making informative videos. Common youtubers dont explain stuff like those who are performing the lifts at such an advanced level.

[@andrem443]

Great video, was wondering if you could do one on the mobility routines you did to obtain that hip flexibility. No matter how much I stretch my hips I can't seem to increase my mobility in them

[@swyftly7790]

KC marques Seconded. This is def needed

[@khairulahmad2330]

Hi JP! I still find this video really helpful when trying to relearn the sumo dl. Hope you can make more videos on sumo dl, common mistakes, improving set up etc. You are one of the few that put out good contents on KZbin. Keep it up!

[@madmadaan03]

one of the best sumo tutorials!

[@phisyka]

Wouldn't be Australia without a jacked kangaroo in the background lol.

[@benjamin2602]

Many thanks from Belgium for this accurate and informative sumo deadlift tutorial. Especially the part about the hip position was GOLDEN! This helped my form more than any video or tip I have seen on the internet and I've seen a lot (Supertraining, Ed Coan, Alan Thrall, Elite FTS, Omar, T-Nation,...). Hope you will bring out more videos, because you really have a clear way of explaining things.Succes with your already great lifting career, I'll be following you :).

[@HoldMyTube]

Subbed from josh's channel, these videos are top quality info... keep them going man their great.

[@ResNRun]

[@actondenton7705]

Really appreciated the explanations, especially about the positioning and what the trade offs are. Strong video, subbed.

[@spenndoolie]

[@robertcook9166]

You're a very smart and talented person. Thank you for this video.

[@veggie_vlad]

Thank you for all your advice, I think I know how to fix my sumo deadlift now!

[@ArenaStrength]

Great tutorial. Thanks man.

[@jvtraining9723]

really good information. answered a few questions i had concerning getting hips close to bar.....and not tearing your spine apart lol. enjoyed this

[@abrahamstevanus6265]

mann...i followed you on instagram ! glad too find your channel on youtube ! your video is very helpfull thanks :)

[@dude157]

There's a lot of great content creators out there for powerlifers from people like Dave Tate at eliteFTS right through to people like Bryce Krawcyzk at Calgary Barbell. All can offer a lot of insight and help. But your videos, particularly your cues have been some of the most helpful for me. Keep up the great work!

[@sarathkumarpc244]

great video man , keep it up

[@Kevflar]

Great video. Thanks!

[@VincentLegent]

Just found your channel, great video!

[@RandomVideos-en2wv]

Great Content Brother Keep It Up ❤️🔥💯

[@championlifters766]

Superb training 👌👌👌👌👌

[@andrewbrown3304]

Awesome. Cheers.

[@Konz828]

sick vids bro. can u make a vid for mobility for a sumo lift? my knees tend to want to cave in towards the bar.

[@rachelfrenot1985]

very good video

[@ianstanojevic673]

I get intense pain in the adductors when i close my legs after sumo deadlift but i don't know why

[@88lawpat]

Great video, can u talk about injuries ,warming up,prevention in the comming future ？

[@tsp8855]

Nice vid. Thought you could've added a discussion about getting tight (upper back and lats) and pulling the slack out. Also as someone who has longer legs relative to torso length, I find this makes me lock out knees earlier than hips, as opposed to someone with shorter legs relative to torso

[@kiharaaikido]

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@mortensengarth]

Great video man, thanks for posting! Feedback - Keep your chin down while facing the camera though, looks a bit better ;)

[@andrewvuong4166]

keep up the content jp. the quality of the videos is great. how long have been lifting weights for?

[@SnapbackzHD]

you know we want to see an arch tutorial

[@robvandooren1463]

Great vid! How about knee pain after sumo deadlift?

[@JohnDengler]

Did you ever make that video of executing the sumo deadlift?

[@Knud451]

Will you always be strongest with a stance width with your shins vertical (in all planes)? If so, then the optimal stance width should be easy to determine. Then its more about getting the hip position right.

[@SufymanFitness]

Tankyou mate :D

[@iconz116]

JP will you be doing an advanced vid for this soon?

[@3Q2HFNILQHF]

How did you build your strength? I assume you didn't start off working out at the gym pulling 400lb you had to start off at the bottom like all of us. What system did you use and how long did it take? I'd like a video on that if possible.

[@jcla228]

What do you think about pulling sumo in shoes vs pulling in slippers/socks?

[@Destamoon]

Finding the correct execution for me was a complete mind fuck. Initiate with the heels or mid foot? Explosive hip drive vs static pull? Do you visualize as a pull or a push? fuaaaaaaaaaaark

[@JohnPaulCauchi]

Destamoon Hahah yeah there are a few things to think about. Will post about that another time

[@aidankiely440]

+John Paul Cauchi Did this vid ever get made?? Haha having similar issues...

[@Destamoon]

Aidan stahp following me around da interwebz

[@bigbaggaboom]

+John Paul Cauchi pls we need this

[@Semaj.18272]

When u say Chins vertical u mean vertical when ur in position to lift off correct ? Cause even if I’m to wide I can squat further down and make then vertical but won’t be my lift off postion as I’ll be to low and as soon as I pull the slack and sort of get in position my chins would be not vertical ... hope I sort of made sense bro

[@xjpablobrx]

Can you make a vid on griping?

[@ganajevon123]

what pair of shoes would you recommend for deadlifting? What pair of shoes are you wearing in this video?

[@lanidrac]

+Gana Sitepu Mark bell powershoes

[@sva6774]

👏👏👏👏🙏

[@danielnator]

mobility exercises for sumo?

[@JoshHancott]

Hey, you showered this time :)

[@JohnPaulCauchi]

Awww you noticed haha

[@jpch8814]

All power-lifters have such beautiful bodies !

[@brandongravelle4969]

Did you end up making the advanced video?

[@jasond6267]

This guy just debunked a lot of sumo myths that I've learned from other channels. I'll listen to this guy, he seems like he knows his shit lol

[@lukemarsh6039]

What kind of shoes are you wearing in the tutorial part of the video?

[@charlesauta6686]

Pretty sure they're the crossfit lite tr

[@katlinmeyer7520]

Please do a more advanced one 😅

[@elr1cbros]

What's the consequence of the shins not being vertical?

[@fatjon1622]

Knee pain

[@JohnPaulCauchi]

Sets your hips in a bad position otherwise

[@ricksong2890]

Bro how tall are you?

[@ademb13]

How to faustian bargain

[@8kilosunderyep877]

Bro do you even lift? How you pull that weight ?

[@skaizu]

Lifts way more than you.

[@NikkoVasquezTV]

I want to be you.

[@alanvarghese7531]

you really need to improve your mic man

[@Hoozpoppin]

Do you miss out half the exercise in the gym? Not trying to be a dick but lowering the bar with weight in a controlled manner is always missed.

[@musicisthecure6934]

Don’t forget that summo is cheating
