I enjoy my stiff legged deadlift's they are my second favorite exercise, I love the burn in my lower back and hams. But I've been doing more and more weight lately, I love getting stronger, and at the same time I'm getting more flexable.
I just want to make sure I'm not hurting myself, I started using a 3'' step when I do the exercise so I can go down further, work more of my back, and hams, and stretch further too. Is this okay? or should I not use the step, should I only go as far as the floor?
If the step is okay to use would a 6'' still be alright or is that too far down on my range of motion.
