The benefit of limited ROM training and/or reverse bands w/video

My hope is that my coaching log will help you by:

As lifting is concerned, your CNS has to adapt to the weight before your muscles are able to. Our bodies will attempt to respond to whatever demand we place on them. By incorporating heavier weights to overload through less ROM or with the use of revere bands we can over stimulate our CNS to adapt so that lighter weights through greater ROM won’t seem as challenging. The reduced ROM also places less stress on your joints rather than repeatedly beating them down with full reps. This is the basis for the
