RACE TO FLIP ‘EM AND STICK ‘EM: Introducing a family party game about flipping chickens and throwing hot dogs into the air. The adductors are the inner thigh muscles that work in conjunction with your glutes to extend your hips.Gameplay is super straight-forward to follow (great for monkeys with short attention spans) but hard to master, making it the perfect addition to your board and card game collection. The internet will never let sumo deadlifters forget the fact that the wide stance means a shorter range of motion to pull the bar completely off the ground when compared to the same lifter’s ROM while pulling conventionally with their feet together.

Because the sumo stance keeps your upper body more upright than other stances, these muscles are mostly acting as stabilizers here.

The rhomboids (a large muscle group in the upper back) work to keep your shoulders pulled back as you hold the bar in a steady position on your back throughout the lift. A key element of a successful squat is your ability to brace, or to create tension in your core to help keep your body stable.
