You could always give it a whirl and post up your vids here to be critiqued.

I'll be playing with them off and on to see if it is a better fit for me.
If not, at least i tried.

Sumo's are a good assistance lift to conventional pulls even if you stick with conventional.

prescription for nitroglycerin patches..

So I read this and wondered if you had heart issues, but this is for joint/muscle pain?

Yes, the doctor said this isn't what its usually prescribed for/intended for but he's had much luck with it.
