I'm going to start deadlifts today.

It looks like Deadlifts work your lower back, while Stiff Legged Deadlifts work your hamstrings. Is this true?

I will admit that I don't know what I'm doing, and I don't know which one I should be doing. Today is Leg day, so I guess I should do the Stiff Legged ones?

All deads will work your lower back

Stiff-legged deads are best imo
