So, I'm a bit confused.
I'm following a workout routine by Mark McManus. He has Deadlift on the Back day and Straight Leg Deadlift on the Leg day.
But a quick search online SEEMS to suggest Straight Leg Deadlift is less for the back and more for the hamstrings.
Side Info:
I'm 55, out of shape, and lifting to lose weight and look reasonably good. Not for body building or sports or contests or anything like that.
Also, I pulled my hamstring several years ago and I don't know how much I can rely on it.

Can any of you experts set me straight on this?
Thanks!
