    So many people commenting who have no idea what they're talking about.

    Partial reps serve a purpose, you see it allot in power lifting also.

    Here is a video that kind of explains partial reps, he has a few on the subject feel free to search the channel for more info.

    What comments are you referring to? I've seen one comment stating that quarter reps/partial reps aren't advised.

    It still doesn't change the fact that an average gym will have people performing movements incorrectly more often than not as opposed to using partial reps to benefit specific muscle groups.

    He must be reading a different thread and commented on the wrong one? That's all I can think of.

    OR, may have thought that he'd be the only one to come in here and make any sense?

    Based on posting history, doubtful.

    1.) none of your business


    I stood up with a weight one time and didn't even squat. I'd challenge anyone to go ahead and judge me for not knowing what I'm doing.

    Pin squat, basically, from "regular" pin height? Yeah - good for getting used to heavier weights.

    Yeah- I actually need to do them more.

    now I need a picture. .. please hold.
