straight leg deadlift vs. stiff leg deadlift

[Maximum6]

which one do you guys do?

I tried both. I can't go as heavy on straight leg deadlift.

I also feel straightleg deadlift is more dangerous.....it feels like i can easily tear my hamstrings.

Straight Leg Deads are a great exercise, but not one I do too often, nor too heavy.

I superset them with either:

seated leg curls
Glute/ham hypers
good mornings

or

Leg extensions

Just make sure your form is "right-on", and take your time concentrating on the movement.

NOT a hurry-up exercise!
