What are some of the best exercises for increasing a sumo deadlift besides doing a sumo deadlift? I'm a powerlifter weighing in at 123 with a 380 deadlift

    Do you have a trainer? It might be a good idea if you don't. There are tips and tricks to doing sumo deadlifts that can add weight without doing other exercises.

    As for what are the best exercises for increasing sumo deadlift, it's going to depend a bit on where you are strongest and weakest in the pull. Partials, paused, and rack pulls can all be very helpful. Same thing for different types of squats, stances, and chains/bands. Other things like hip thrusts, low pulley cable pullthroughs, and even back work can improve your pull depending on your mechanics and your weaknesses.

    You can DL over 3x's your BW and you're asking the rest of "us" for advice?

    It should be the other way around!
