Partial Reps to Utilize Extra Muscle Fibers Partial Reps to Utilize Extra Muscle Fibers
Save Tip

After you have done a set and you cant do that last rep, do another half or 3/4 rep (or as much as you can). Do a few of them, this helps to use those few last and unused muscle fibers that otherwise would not have been used.

MatthewCole I do the same during pull ups. I also found that negative pull ups really help too!

Hulbs I like this idea, ans use it particularily when doing sets of chin-ups or pull ups.
