Stiff-Legged Barbell Deadlift

Legs · Barbell

How to do it

Like the Romanian version but with the knees almost fully straight, which stretches the hamstrings maximally from the start. Only go as low as your back stays flat: here your range is set by your flexibility, not your willpower. Moderate weight. You feel a very strong stretch high in the hamstring, near the glute.
