Hey phreezer,
I know this is an old post but this may be one of the most informative posts on here. Along with the rules of the board this should be mandatory reading for all newbies. Especially the one's who ask "how do I get big". I do sumo lifts with every leg workout. I can't tell you how many young kids at my gym I try to help with deadlifts. It seems they all learn from the same asshole who tells them to load the bar up and yank on it till your face turns blue, then bounce it off the floor and try it again. I try to instill in them that this is a dead lift and the weight needs to come to a complete rest before the upward motion begins again. I hope you don't mind but I am copying this info and passing it along to some of my younger friends who will be off to college this fall. As always thanks for the info. and your dedication to this board.
