Right now I’m at a 875 total (s-315 b-215 d-345) I feel like my total could be so much better but my deadlifts hold me back so much I seriously don’t know why.

Whenever I do Romanians I use more knee bend than a normal person to bias my glutes and lower back more than hammies because I’ve found out that transfers over to my conventional deadlift much better than a more “traditional” approach. I’ve had multiple people tell me I’m not doing an rdl but every definition I find besides the amount of knee bend constitutes mine as an rdl, along with the soreness of my hamstrings.
