They have their place. Working the top end of your deadlift.My opinion only (shared by many): deadlifts are a pretty good overall strength movement but are not necessarily the best for anything other than powerlifting. There’s better/safer options for hypertrophy and general strength. The trap bar is safer, RDL’s are another posterior chain movement.Full disclosure…I hated deadlifts and strained my lat a couple times which hampered my training on almost everything else soooo I just didn’t do them.I took a 135 and a 225 dl at a PL meet just for my squat and bench total…. Because I’m lazy…by then I was way over the meet and wanted to go home…
