If your goal is just to deadlift as much as possible then sumo may be the way. But if you want to be as big and all around strong and developed as possible then you should try to get the conventional's right. The comment that you made about quads should tell you something. Sumos use much the same muscles as a wide stance squat. Not that they don't use the hip musculature. But conventionals are all about hams, glutes and back. Course, it may be the conventionals are just a really bad fit for you but I think most people who don't compete should be looking at them to get the most bang for their buck.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
