full range baby !

[JackTheRipper]

now there are times when i use short range of motion if say a full range hurts ..
what do you guys do?

[oldtimer1]

Partials have a use but call a spade a spade. It's used by guys to show off how much weight they can handle. Swallow the ego and grab the smaller weights using a slow controlled full range of motion.

so if you have an injury partials are not good? 
Honestly man have you had an injury before?

while we are asking questions nothing to do with the previous post

Do you have a socket set in your garage?
do you have a pair of small scissors in your desk at work?

Do whatever you please and what feels right. There is no correct way to train. Some people get the results with heavy weight,light weight,high reps,low reps, half reps,full reps, static holds,etc… it all works. I like full reps and then half reps on some things.

yes and full range of motion thus giving more TUT.

Partials are good for working strength ranges, like a board press for locking out in Powerlifting.
For BB training, I dont see much of a benefit...

This is kind of the rule I go by, these days. I've always done full rom and slow negatives because I'm looking for overall progress rather than isolating certain parts but I can understand why a pro would only want to target a specific. Its when novices do partials that I think that's kinda pointless but what the hell it ain't my place to tell them shit

this guy does speak some sense

Yes, I agree with his videos.

Especially what he says about squats and deadlifts.

rack pulls i like better anyway but yeah his techniques look funny at first but he gets results.
I think most importantly he makes a good point about maybe after an injury using a smaller range of motion.
a good channel.

Continuous tension, locking out/bottoming out takes the tension off the muscle.  Also the extremes of the ROM are often dangerous positions for the joint (touching chest for bench press, going all the way down with preacher curls, etc).  Stay within the middle 80% of the ROM is what I’ve heard and I think there’s something to it.  It may not work for everyone but I think the idea is sound enough to warrant an earnest trial.

Agreed.

And most dangerous for the tendons and muscle tears.

Lateral raises are useful done with a short range. You also avoid lots of shoulder issues:
