Sumo Deadlift with Chains
The Sumo Deadlift with Chains is a powerlifting movement that targets your hamstrings. Here's how to do it with clean form.
How to do the Sumo Deadlift with Chains
- Drape chains evenly over the bar so they deload fully on the floor at the start position.
- Take your sumo stance, brace hard, and pull just as you would a standard sumo deadlift.
- Drive with maximum intent through the top half where chain weight is greatest.
- Lower the bar until all chain links contact the floor before resetting for the next rep.
