Just started doing deadlifts

[gixxer]

Today was back/shoulder day and I really wanted to try out deadlifts ...
I went light inorder to get my form on track... but wow I got really tired doing them ...
I tried to do chin ups and lat pulldowns but I couldn't even use the weight that used before ...
And I had to use lower weights on the military press.

so i'm wondering does doing deadlifts work the shoulders or not?

and also which muscles do deadlifts target... I know there is the lower back, legs, bit of traps but does it have any effect on lats?

thanks

When I first started doing deads, my lats got pretty sore. So, I'm assuming that they do hit them. From my understanding deads hit the entire back with emphasis on the erectors, and hams

Does your name mean that you ride a GSXR?

they do put some strain on the lats
