Partials
Posted by admin on March 6th, 2008
Partial reps or partials are a training method in which you only work through a partial or limited range of motion. If you are relatively weak in a certain range of movement of an exercise, you can use partial reps to improve your strength in that range. Doing partial reps can also allow you to use more resistance than you could use if you performed a full range of motion.
A power rack is very useful if you wish to incorporate this training method. For example, if you are doing partials to improve a range of movement weakness, you can set up the power rack so that you work only through the range of movement that is causing you difficulty.
