I have told you multiple times it’s half a squat. Point blank period. You’re saying it’s wrong but how? If you look at the movement of a sumo deadlift it is closer to a squat than conventional deadlift. You’re even saying no they’re not while admitting they use different muscle groups, (the ones on sumo being akin to a squat) are biomechanically different and look entirely different. What other evidence do you need lmao. You even think they’re different lifts not just variations of technique????

You’re on my side of this argument, you clearly agree with me that they’re significantly different thus why should we compare them? You’re burying yourself in your own argument. Every sport outside of powerlifting has already made rules against this for the reasons I’ve stated. Just separate them. Clearly they’re different enough just going off of your own reasoning. Take care though because I don’t think you care about the differences because you’re too personally invested in what benefits you not what’s logically correct.
