Personal preference is important. Don't understand how sumo deads limit range of motion but if you think so. I find them less stressfull on the knees and lower back than other variations. I also find that not only do they work the posterior chain as do other variations of deadlifts, but also the inner thigh area more than other variations.
Perhaps these are do to body type differences or perhaps form from one individual to another. Similar to those with longer legs tend to squat less and those with longer arms are usually not as efficient in bench press. BUT, like so many excercises, people tend to develop preferences do to enjoyment, personal results and comfort of the exercise. What is good for one person is not always the best for another.
Cheers

yeh the cals on the monitor probs aint right, I just write it up n e way, I normally set a distance with th ex. bike and try and reach it asap, normally 1 and 1/2 minutes fast as i can go, 1 and 1/2 minutes or a bit less at a slower pace, then back up to full speed again, mayb i should just record times

ahh shit
thats me screwed then, lol, arms and legs are real long. Na i kno its more down to the individual, but jus for knowledge is it jus cos the range of movement is longer, so a tall person has a harder time?
and Sumo's feel alrite to me, but they pull on the hams quite a bit, ill cycle mainly between normal deads and gm's and go sumo on the odd.
