An exercise's ability to isolate a muscle doesn't necessarily make it a better choice... for instance, do you also think that leg extensions are a better leg exercise than squats?

I agree. But deadlifts are probably the only excercise that in my opinion, if not perfectly done, YOUR DONE.
For me, I dont need them. Thats just me. Also, it kinda builds the wrong kinda body. The body I already have.

I agree with winger, bent over rows are the 2nd best excercise for back, right after wide grip chins

Weight Training

Deadlifts 200:8, 280:5, 360:2

Rack Pull 400:1

Workout Duration: 30 Approximate Calories Burned: 66

Comments: "No pain from hamstring, knocked knee whilst loading the bar, both knees are a little sore as they are compensating for hamstring a bit when i walk, could have done more on the rack pull but did not feel as confident as normal"

FIRST DAY BACK DOING DEADLIFTS AFTER ABOUT A 4 WEEK LAYOFF AFTER HAMSTRING PULL, FELT QUITE GOOD BUT A LACK OF CONFIDENCE STOPPED ME PULLING MORE.

This was an excerpt from my training diary before the injury, so well pleased that i seem to be getting back on form

Comments: "Did more deadlift sets, last 2 sets with belt, one of my best deads. Only managed 1 rack pull, tried 2 attempts at 460 and one at 450, probably could have managed if had done less deads, also a bit better mind set on the rack pulls."
