Okay, but you didn’t answer the question in the title

Hi Eli! Thanks for your comment. I apologize that it took so long to reply. I'm sorry our video wasn't clear. Backlog grooming is like all the prep work you do before a race. The sprint planning is the race itself. We have a blog post about it if you'd like to read more about it here.. www.zibtek.com/blog/backlog-grooming-and-sprint-planning-whats-the-difference/ Have a great weekend!

The last Scrum Guide (2020) do not use the Grooming term. Is this practice still part of Scrum ? thank you

[@annaz7542]

It is part of Scrum, however, it was collectively decided to avoid the word grooming. By definition, grooming is when someone builds a relationship, trust and emotional connection with someone so they can manipulate, exploit and/or abuse them. It is up to all of us to embrace the word Refinement as much as possible :) Hope this helps.
