What’s the difference between an RDL (Romanian Deadlift) and a Stiff-Legged Deadlift?
If I’m performing a traditional RDL, I’m maintaining soft knees, pushing my a$$ back, and targeting glutes and hamstrings.
If I’m doing a Stiff-Legged, I’m keeping my legs straighter and trying to point my a$$ ‘up to the air’. My hamstrings will light up with these.
So, when would I do a RDL? When I’m trying to grow my glutes. I would do Stiff-Legged for more hamstring-focus.
