I find it amusing that someone who tries to pass himself off as "educated" as you can say such stupid things. Look at the word, "opinion", by definition it can't be wrong. If I say the sky looks green to me, it doesn't matter how rediculous you think that statement is, it's damn well green. "In my opinion."

Is a stiff leg deadlift (or straight leg deadlift)an isolation exercise? It is an isolation exercise according to the given websites above.

This one is sort of a hybrid, more than one joint moves (hips and shoulders) but I still would consider it an isolation movement because the shoulder joints aren't really doing any work. You could say the shoulders are getting worked just because they are supporting the weight, but I don't think that's enough to change this to a compound movement. (In my opinion.
