Stephan Korte's 3x3 First Week Progress and Apologies to All!

Also, on the deadlifts, sumo deadlifting is not real deadlifting. It has some merit, but I wouldn't really use it much at all unless I was competing at powerlifting and pulling sumo. It can be a good assistance exercise for your hips, hamstrings, and glutes but pulling conventional (and especially of standing on a 2-3" box or plate) will induce much more strength and size gains overall.

the dumbest fucking thing ive ever heard..
got tell tweakle (a 700puller) that hes not really deadlifting since "his" form is not text book

I agree wnt2bbeast. However, what your point in that post? Didn't quite get what you are saying there, who's pulling sumo?

Another easy PR today, 10lbs on deadlifts. Up to 355 now, I will be attempting 365, perhaps 375 next week.

I haven't read all these posts but I have used this method of training before.
I felt the conditioning weeks were way to easy, esp after training singles for many months...with that being said, I saw slight improvement on my dl and sq, little on bp.
I felt out of practice with singles when it came time to do them. My tri's didn't get the needed work either, i felt...in short, I like having ME days every week instead of every 4 weeks...
If i did it again I would modify it by adding a few exercieses
