Quick takeaways
- Lengthened partial range of motion training can stimulate growth in difficult-to-target muscles like the back and arms.
- Individual factors such as exercise selection and resistance curves should be considered when implementing lengthened partial range of motion training.
Deep dives
The potential benefits of lengthened partial range of motion training
Lengthened partial range of motion training may be beneficial for individuals who have already been training with proper form and full range of motion. By targeting the lengthened position of exercises and overloading that specific muscle range, it could potentially stimulate growth in muscles that have been difficult to target. This is especially relevant for muscle groups such as the back, traps, and arms, which may not require direct isolation exercises if heavy compound movements are already being performed. Additionally, incorporating eccentric-only training in the lengthened position could further enhance growth due to the adaptation of fascicle length and angle, increasing force production in these positions. Overall, the goal is to find creative ways to train muscles in the lengthened position to maximize hypertrophy potential.
