    hypers will work your lower back

    deads will have much more of an impact on your body however as they get many more muscles involved.

    be sure to do both.

    I was doing deadlifts on back day.. it's just i'm not convinced i'm doing them 100% correctly, and i don't want to risk injury. (and yes i've asked trainers, i'm just not that great at the motion, maybe it's my weak arms)

    I personally dont think you need do hypers if you do deadlifts.. unless your lower back is weak and affects your deads.

    My question is still, can hyperextensions substitute for dead lifts as a lower back excercise.

    always do some sort of deadlifting, either from the floor or SLDL.

    Are you talking deads or SLDL here, there is a difference. I like GMs better than SLDL.

    Sure, but you dont do deadlifts for the lower back, its a compound movement.
