What's your Hottest take?

This should be a fun one...

I'll start by saying that "Full ROM" is incredibly overrated. We already know that partial ROM towards the lengthened end of an exercise can give equivalent gains. In my own training, for a lot of muscles I find the "middle 60%" to be extremely effective, feels great for the joints, keeps the tension high, and leads to a good pump. Full ROM often just feels like making me waste effort on parts of a motion that don't engage my target muscle fully. Sometimes the squeeze feels like a waste too, and I'll prefer the "bottom 60%" of a lift (e.g. on some pulling).

Quick example: I've made far more quad gains limiting my ROM in leg presses and squats; part of this is due to my own unique limb lengths of course. Also for chest I really like those "middle partials" on bench press, amazing pump. In both cases, I can use slightly more weight and do more reps while keeping the tension on the target muscles.

At the end of the day, I'm into bodybuilding, not weightlifting for the sake of doing exercises a certain way. If I found out that isometrics were the best thing for me, I'd just be doing that. Hmm maybe that'd be a fun experiment to try some of those too.
