Etymology
Named so in homage to Romanian weightlifter Nicolae Vlad.
Meanings
-
A form of deadlift in which the body is bent at the hips and the knees are not bent.
Powerful hip extension is essential if you hope to squat heavier, jump higher or run faster, making it essential to train the hams using focused hip-extension exercises (like the romanian deadlift).
