Deadlift differences

kmaf2018

Hi All

Can someone please explain or point in the direction of a good website that will explain the differences between stiff legged, romanian, straight legged and american deadlifts?

I've looked and looked myself but I still don't understand what the difference is.

I did Straight Legged deadlifts with my PT (I dont have them anymore) and then discovered that straight legged are in fact Romanian Deadlifts - is this true?

I just want to understand.

bodybuilding.com has a good guide to the different exercises.
