I've been using RDL's to strengthen my glutes and hamstrings for the Deadlift, mostly doing 6-8 sets of 10 using 135 to 185. I don't think this has helped me.
Yesterday, I used them at 40-45% of my Deadlift for 10's and 8's and felt these heavier sets hit my hamstrings better.
Would using 60-65% for 6-8 be more effective? I used this same line of thinking for incline work (60-65% for 3-5 sets of 6-8) and made some modest improvements to my bench.
Thoughts?
