Until you realize that even when you do lengthened partials, you still have to reach failure. So really, the effort is probably equal per gain in both variations.
1. How did you take into consideration the “crossover effect” when accounting for differences? We know that with individuals who injure a limb that often times doing exercises with the healthy/functioning side or limb results in a noticeable effect on compensation through adaption with the other. So, with this study we understand that the idea was to balance out the groups by splitting left vs right sides in case you had someone genetically gifted, but we realize that because of the crossover effect variable, your data was potentially skewed towards the null outcome. This explains why the before mentioned studies testing separate groups on full ROM vs lengthened partials had larger variances. Knowing the physiological effects of the crossover effect, I think this explains the almost null outcome and further evaluation is needed. I still think the “only lengthened partials” group is onto something, we just need more of those studies to achieve an accurate conclusion.
2. While not as important from a hypertrophic standpoint (which I believe was the primary goal of this particular experiment in the video) I am extremely interested on the effects of tendon/ligament strengthening. For instance, while I might get the same muscle-building benefits from lengthened partials vs full ROM, what about my tendon strength? As an example, most would advise to drop weight on preacher curls and focus on full ROM because a major concern would be a breakage of the bicep tendon. The same could be said for a squat, leg extension, pulldown, etc. I realize that the lengthened partials already work the most vulnerable/effective position for hypertrophy, but would there be more protection and benefit to the overall strength of the human body to prevent injury and increase mobility by doing full ROM? I’m extremely interested because if lengthened partials vs full ROM end up having the same outcome for hypertrophy, but there is a significant increase in overall tendon strength and mobility with full ROM, then overall, full ROM would be superior.
The more you stretch the better you'll be able to move around in general even with big muscles.
Yeah I'm not surprised I'm jealous too
