    Just over two weeks out. Down to 1,790 calories a day (normal is 3,000) and doing 5 days a week of 30 minute LISS cardio sessions…..

    If I am hitting quads much in a deadlift I am definitely out of form. It is almost all glutes and hamstrings with some inner leg since I use sumo. When I use standard form, my knees are so far over the bar it just doesn't work well. I also try to extend uniformly, if the hips rise too fast it leaves my back very vulnerable. And of course get the upper back tight before launch so you don't slump.

    I'm not sure what the question exactly is? Can you please explain a bit more?
    Deadlifts sure are not an exercise everyone can/should do. It's an amazing exercise that has a lot of real life overspill, but it can also be a double edged sword due to high risk of injury.
    if you feel like this exercise isn't 'doing it for you, by all means don't do it. '
    There are no Golden/Must Do exercises you need to do.
    Do the ones you feel good at and can do with picture perfect form.

    Agreed, form is everything on this lift. If my hips go up too fast/far, I bail out because the risk of back injury is much too high. I would rather drop the bar and try again than injure myself.

    I am very tall and, like you, I used to lift sumo. Then I switched to the traditional form, and my lifts improved. It definitely took a while to get the form dialed. The trick to clearing the legs is to lean far enough back, you would fall over backward if it weren't for the weight of the bar. You want the arms vertical, or very close to, when you lift off the ground. They can be in front during setup and when you start, leaning back and tightening lats will put you in a good place for the launch.

    I love deadlifts! I don't do sumo though, not a fan. I'd rather use the trap bar if I couldn't do traditional safely.
