Continuing to
do partial reps (part of Bodybuilding Intensity Training Techniques)
when you are too tired to complete full-range-of-motion repetitions is a
shock method we have always used for almost any muscles in the body
during our bodybuilding workout, and it is a particular favorite of
Dorian Yates. Dorian has done a lot of training where he forced his
muscles past the point of momentary failure to almost total exhaustion,
using techniques like forced reps and partial reps.
Partial reps
intensity training techniques are most effective at the end of a set,
when you are almost exhausted. For example, if you were doing Preacher
Curls, you would have your workout partner help you lift the weight and
then you would lower it a few degrees and then lift it as much as
possible, even if only a few inches; then lower it some more and do some
partial reps from that position, repeating this on the way down until
your muscles are burning and exhausted.
