Stiff legged is for hams and lower back.

 

[P-funk]

do both. not one is better than the other IMO.

 

[CowPimp]

Both will do a number on your lower back. Try deadlifts in a platform for a real kick in the lower back. Hyperextensions and reverse hyperextensions are also awesome.

I have developed a strong preference for stiff legged deadlifts. I have found that 'any' bottom position lift that I attempt to use, puts my joints under excessive stress and more times than not, leads to tendonitis and/or minor injuries. That alone is my reason for prefering SLDL's to conventional or sumo deads.

I like good mornings in a rack for lower back, and hypers.

Partial, rack deadlifts is the superior move in my opinion.

do you do them on back day?

 

[ihateschoolmt]

do you do them on back day?

Yes, they take legs out of the movement. It's all back and grip.

 

[musclepump]

YUP!

I find the 45's make them pretty partial anyway.

Not partial like I am talking about. If you are deadlifting off the floor, its considered a full deadlift.

What is the definition of "partial"?

 

[Triple Threat]

Partials - use a squat rack to get the barbell off the ground and perform just the top part of the deadlift.

And of course the degree of "partial-ness" is up to you. You can go from mid shin height to as high as mid quad height for a starting point.

GP: for regular deads do you use a belt?

I never use a belt,if you start training without a belt you'll build a strong enough back to not need one.Check my gallery,i can deadlift and squat over 500lbs without needing a belt.

Impressive gallery.

 

[BIGDAVE]

Thanks.
I've never used a belt since i started training and i've never felt i needed one.My philosiphy is that if you start without one as you get stronger so does your back and you'll never need one.I hate seeing guys who dont have a clue wearing belts constantly,they wear them for benching and for using machines.
The only time i've injured my back was a month before christmas when i started getting backpain and nerve pain down my legs because i hurt it running.But after a 2 month rest off deadlifting and squating i was back up to 500 pounds.

Nothin' beats good ooole deads

I stopped using a belt for squats and deads a while ago and am glad I did. My form is much better and I don't have concerns about being too reliant on it.

iv got a question for deads. do you basically position yourself like your doing a squat at the beginning?(legs almost parallel) im hella confused at the starting position.
