He’s not an idiot, he just doesn’t care about movements outside of the gym like you do.

[jasonfaucett]

Why is it always the small dudes who think they know what they’re doing

[reidcarr]

this is like saying “why do swimmers swim?” because it doesn’t translate well to sports on dry land

[Bigmacknate]

He’s a powerlifter he is training to be better at his sport so what is your point 😂

[peytonross]

Sumo squats, and deadlifts a good for jujitsu, because it trains the muscles of the hips that are commonly used in the sport

I mean I sorta have to squat sumo because of my anatomy, if I try to squat too narrow my chest will end up facing the ground and I’ll have to use a lot of lower back to extend myself back up

[Andrew_Hamilton]

YOUR FUCKING POWER LIFTING, ITS WHAT THEY DO, THEY DO NOT GIVE TWO SHITS ABOUT HOW IT TRANSLATES OUTSIDE THE GYM

[Apple_Slices.]

To be fair, sumo squats could be solid for cage wrestling in MMA.

[pureintellectualbeing]

Yeah but not everyone has the same hip sockets either or femur lengths as youre well aware

[AxelMQuintana]

I'm with Mario sometimes, but you gotta remember that there are exception to the rule, because of anatomy. Even if you want to squat in shoulder width, if your hips are attached differently than most people, your gonna have to have a wide stance squat, probably not sumo, but it depends in the person's anatomy.
Yeah, you can improve your mobility to have even more narrow stance with ankle mobility. But it won't affect much if your hips are just too deep and can't even get to parallel if you don't open them as wide as you can because of your anatomy.

Bro is mad that a powerlifter trains to be a powerlifter and not a soccer/football player. Is he stupid?

[LDGRXR]

These 2 gained an audience and started coping harder than ever

[vectorshot]

Bro wants everyone to train to be john wick mixed with michael jordon

"What other sports/desires?"- Mario

[Child-In-Bucket-Eating-Melon]

as a person who has worked in a farm, and had to carry very heavy things, calmly bless your heart. if it works it works, stop acting like a toddler with no binky because he does something different than you

[JoeLeone]

It's almost like powerlifters are supposed to squat the heaviest weight possible.

[Slvrdrgnd]

You couldn't have possibly thought that people would agree with you. So here is the engagement, I squat with a wide stance to be able to hit depth. This looked like a good squat, and a long, stable pause at the bottom. I need you to send this to my family, cause they do not understand that powerlifting doesn't translate to lifting heavy things.

[DiegoAtkinson]

Not everything you do in the gym has to transfer out the gym

[nate-endo]

“What’s the point of getting better at shooting a basketball when it doesn’t transfer to outside the gym”

[mattc]

Lol cuz you never had a wide stance in sports ?!? Cmon now !

[ZachXthagod]

A wide base squat is entirely different than a sumo squat. Some people aren't comfortable with a standard squat stance and are quad dominant.

This slight change incorporates the glutes and hamstrings more at the bottom of the lift.

A real sumo squat is done with a kettlebell or dumbbell, not a barbell, and is amazing for glute activation.
