Hey - isn't the Romanian deadlift a stiff-legged deadlift?

....for a while when I was varying my routines, I did legs and back workouts twice a week. One workout I'd do DL then squats, then the next time I'd switch. It was a killer...


Well M...if you mean the ones that I get after going for beer and wings...YES!!! LOL ....(burp)...excuse me....
Yes, Romanians are just like SL Deads, only difference is the bar is allowed to drift away from your body on the way down, almost as if you were naturally letting your arms hang down with the bar in your grip. With SL, you want to keep the bar closer to your legs.

Main thing is, with either of the exercises, is to remember to drive your hips and glutes back as if you were trying to touch your butt to an imaginary wall behind you. Too many people miss out on this major compenent of the movement, and it ends up being an exercise stressing primarily the lumbar.

At your activity, especially once you throw resistance training into the mix, at least 1 gram per pound of body weight, assuming you are not overly fat. If you are carrying a lot of fat, then I would bump that number down to 1 gram per pound of lean body mass.

You forgot to quote the "yeah right" part.

I was telling people who PMed me, well some of them at least, to read my journal. It is grown a bit too much for that now. Guess I will have to stop being a lazy butt and send links to the specific page.

Hmmm...best laid plans of mice - no men

The diary section gets fairly bloated here.

Too much time on our hands and not enough chicken.

I don't mind repeating myself, so it is not big deal. Bloat my journal away.
