    Sumo Deadlifts on Leg day???

    Anyone tried Sumo Deadlifts on Leg day as part of a BB routine? When you think about it, a Sumo Deadlift (or a "Powerlifting cheats Deadlift") takes out a lot of the Back and works the Legs and Glutes more. Bit like a Jefferson Squat but not as awkward.

    Sit before you stand for bigger biceps

    I was just reading Andy's comment in this thread Bar Curls - Core Stability Post #17 01-09-2010 12:49 PM And it gave me an idea to write few words on the subject, since I agree with Andy re that ridiculous modern preacher bench; ridiculous because of its wrong design. With that said, here...
