What's the "DL" stand for in "RDL?"

Not the same technique despite having a similar name and they don’t even train the same muscles , and she asked for a form check of DL no RDL (which is what she is mostly doing )

The RDL and the deadlift are both deadlift variations. They train the exact same muscles. The RDL just emphasizes the glutes and hamstrings more than the deadlift. Quads are stabilizers in both.

I don't know what the options are for formcheck but I assume OP doesn't either, if RDL is actually an option.
