So, after going pretty heavy on a barbell version of Sumo Deadlifts, we look have a bit faster cycle rate on a different version of the movement. With dual DB Sumo Deadlifts, just need one head of each DB needs to touch the ground. Still maintain that flat back throughout the movement. Make sure you do not arch the back at the top.
Scaling Options:
DB weight -> 35/25 -> as needed (ELITE: 70/50)
Pull Ups -> Banded Strict Pull Ups -> Buddha Pull-ups -> Ring Row (ELITE: Chest2Bar)
Dubs -> 70 Single Unders (ELITE: 50 Dubs)
