I know the trainer who trained some NFL players such as dominique sproles as well as terrance newman and he made them do alot of hang cleans and snatches

I'm curious why it's called a Romanian Deadlift ?

Quoted from the link article: http://www.focusedtrainers.com/news/articl...07-deadlift.htm

Quote
From my readings and discussions with Jim Schmitz, past USWF president and 1980, 1988, and 1992 Olympic Team Coach, it seems he named the exercise in 1990. The story is that Nicu Vlad, Olympic and World Champion from Romania was in San Francisco training with his coach Dragomir Cioroslan at Jim Schmitz’s training center The Sports Palace. After he finished his clean and jerking session where he went up to 220 to 230 kg he performed a weird deadlifting movement. Apparently he did this movement with 250 kg for triples and was seen at a later date doing it with 300 kg for a double. Someone in the crowd asked what the exercise was and they didn’t have a name for it. Jim Schmitz suggested calling it the Romanian Deadlift and the name stuck (for some people).

The article also has a few pointers on how to do the RDL and comments on skill transferability to the clean.
