Hey guys/girls..
Today was my first time trying sumo as i want to be stong in both stances...
Obviously my normal is conventional and my best pull is 530lb, set a new PR of 510 @189 recently too.
Id like my sumo to in the region of 450-500 as well, hopefully this carries over to conventional strength too and should boost it a little.
Anyway enough chatter.
Here is a video of me pulling 315 sumo, bear in mind 315 is a warmup for me normally and i practise speed pulls with it in conventional.
It looks to me as if im leaning too far forward when pulling, whats causing this? Is it just too heavy for a fist time?

Here's another video of me pulling 315 conventional, bear in mind this isnt my normal pulling speed. Its normally a little faster.

Any advice? Thanks
