| | | A conventional deadlift targets the hamstrings, glutes, and quads. The main difference is that the stiff-legged deadlift require much less, if any, involvement of the quadriceps. It mainly works the hamstrings, glutes, and erector spinae. |

| | | A deadlift is a hip dominat exericse that utilizes the glutes and hip flexors. A stif leg deadlift (your legs are not really stiff), is also a hip dominant exericse focusing more on hamstring development. |

| | Conventional deadlifts start from the floor. Barbell Deadlift
Stiff legged deadlifts (or romanian) don't. With these, depending on your flexibility, should only go to your shins. http://www.bsu.edu/webapps2/strengthlab/images/rdl.mpg
Study the two, notice the difference? | |
