The kettlebell sumo squat is a lower-body movement emphasizing the muscles of the hips, glutes, and quads. It shares attributes with both the kettlebell deadlift and the goblet squat, but is usually performed with a wider stance and the feet pointed more outward, similar to a sumo deadlift. Its unique stance helps the lifter keep an upright torso, as well as emphasize stretching the hips and adductor muscles.
