Training Techniques: Romanian Deadlifts
By Scott Goodpaster
RDL (Romanian Deadlift) is one of the best traditional exercises around for general strength. RDL’s strengthen the hamstrings, glutes, low back, and a wrestlers grip. The posterior chain is often neglected, but is essential for top performance as well as injury prevention. RDL’s develop excellent suplex and pick-up abilities. RDL’s will have your hamstrings screaming the next couple of days after.
