Today I lifted the most weight in the deadlift that I have ever lifted. I lifted more in the weaker (conventional) and beltless style than I did in the stronger (sumo) style with a belt at my best ever pull which was in competition.
I pulled 506 sumo style with a belt in 2010 @181. Today was 510 conventional style without a belt @ 189.
Sumo with a belt has historically been 50-70 lbs weaker than conventional. This varies with how much I focus on the sumo and let the conventional languish. So while I beat my absolute deadlift best by just four pounds, this is at the very least a 60-lb PR on this particular version of the lift.
I'm now wondering about working on the sumo with a belt to peak for a triple bodyweight pull during a meet. I'm also wanting to hit triple bodwyeight in the conventional, beltless style and then work on my sumo pull.
