Lengthened partial repetitions elicit similar muscular adaptations as full range of motion repetitions during resistance training in trained individuals
Trainees seeking to maximize muscle size should likely emphasize the stretched position, either by using a full ROM or LPs during upper-body resistance training. For muscle strength-endurance, our findings suggest that LPs and full ROM elicit similar adaptations.
