@jacobzemer: 💪 One of the worst things you can do while lifting is changing your form through the set. Many of my clients start their sets with perfect form and full range of motion. But as the exercises get more difficult and fatigue sets in, they start to compensate with shorter ranges of motion and doing partial sets. At that point, it’s my job to correct their form and shout at them “Full range of motion!” There are two major problems with this: Lifting is an opportunity to train for both strength and mobility. Changing your form during your sets can hinder both of these goals. The goal is to standardize your lifts, so you can build consistently on your progress week over week. Changing your form prevents you from building on your progress. For example, 6 full range of motion squats with 3 partial ones is not the same as 9 full range of motion squats. When bench pressing, reducing your range of motion due to fatigue will only work your triceps. With a full range of motion, you’ll continue to work your triceps, chest, and deltoids.
