    Deadlifts?? on back day or legs??

    Do you guys do deads on back day or legs?? i know it targets your legs more but it hits my lower back hard too. Curious to know what most of you guys do?? especially the long time lifters?? I just started these for the 1st time 2 weeks ago and i love them. is 275x6 pretty decent for only the 2nd week. I am 5'9 210lbs and lifting for about 9 months now. Ultimately i'd like to get to the 400's.
    thanks,
    mike

    I have two days for "back" on one, i do deadlifts, stiff deads, hypers, and hams. The other i do rows (barbell as well as upright) and weighted pulldowns. I do my calves quads and glutes 4-5 days after i do the lowerback/hams day. It's worked VERY well for my back, and my hams. My quads still lag behind because of a knee injury that still bothers me and prevents me from going as heavy as i'm capable of.


    so my answer is both.

    Stiff legged deadlifts are the best IMHO.

    Standard deadlifts on back day, stiff-legged deadlifts are done on leg day if I do them.

    Depends on the type of deadlift. Regular deads can be for either back or leg but stiff deads are legs all the time as much more stress are placed on the glute/hams than back.
