@thesciencebasedlifter: I wouldn’t say lengthened partials are over rated more they are misunderstood… @Toosa the one thing I do have high confidence in though is a shortened partial won’t be superior to a lengthened one (for obvious reasons related to force length behavior). Not sure we need more studies to understand why soleuos doesnt hypertrophy as much (it’s a predominant slow twitch muscle). Lots of this can generally be explained by muscle architecture (why the estimated forces are lower for the GL? It’s cause it’s smaller - etc…) #sciencebasedlifting #sciencebasedtraining #thesciencebasedlifter #thesbl
