Conventional DL to Build Sumo?

Emphasizes the pull off the floor with a small deficit. Sounds good to me. I do sumo block pulls more than deficits tho. If someone’s so bad off the floor they are taking 5 seconds down there it’s an issue with their form or the percentage is like 105% 1RM of something.

Bigger deficit makes it hard to get into a good starting position sometimes prohibitively so.
