Author Topic: Deadlifts (Read 1728 times)

Right, but would it be a good idea to do them on back day? I can't believe bodybuilding.com lists it for quads and doesn't even list back as a secondary muscle.

Do Romanian deadlifts instead. Hits back more and limits quads...

Yeah, I think.

I do stiff leg DL on Leg day and Power Lifting style DL on Back Day.

Bb.com says Romanians are for hamstrings and doesn't list back as a secondary. What kind of operation are they running?

Getbig shows its superiority yet again. Despite the crappy search function.

Serious question, I always thought they were for back but bbing.com says quads?

Maybe it's just me but my lower back gets sore when I deadlift

Exactly. Stiff-legged deadlift for hamstrings and glutes. Normal deadlift for the whole back.

mainly lower back, lower traps, hams, quads, glutes and forearms.
to a smaller degree---the entire back
