    Do women have a wider deadlift stance? I know this is an odd question, but yesterday, I was watching the HIIT folks doing their thing and I notice the women hopping with a wider stance then I would have felt comfortable doing. So my mind turned to wondering if it was because women have wider hips. Of course It could have been just one of the weird things that the HIIT trainers tell them to do.

    I haven't noticed that. We design the pulling stance to optimum efficiency for the pull, not for sexual purposes.
