Pro BB's doing partial reps??? I don't get it.....

[ednhoss12]

What's the deal w/ pro's only doing partials? Every training vid I have ever seen they only do the bottom half of the rep.......whats the deal? Like Ronnie Colemans vid "the cost of redemption" Every press he does, he never comes out to full contraction, not even halfway contracted. Anyone have any insight?

constant tension

yes, agree with shadow, also sometimes it allows you to use heavier weights to target a specific ROM...partials were a fav of dorian yates

i wouldnt use any of the pros as an example, they already paid their dues and are juicing and shit. ronnie is already big, at this point i dont think he cares how he lifts.

i do partials at the end of a set on occasion. i like them. i think they work well on biceps. but i hate the guys who train like that all the time, like, benching 225 goin half down and barely half up
