Wide stance isn't for everyone, but it depends on eacc person's body. They give me knee issues, so I train more narrow now after nearly 2 years wide. I DO train good mornings very wide though.

If you like sumo, check out John Christy's sumo video...good stuff...I'm sending this to Jwood this week.
