I got a friend of mine...who's actually a pretty big guy...but he's been working out FOREVER...I mean over a decade religiously. He lifts an ENORMOUS amount of weight, but he will only do a small range of motion. For instance, on the bench press, he will only go halfway down. On standing bb curls, he will only bring his arms halfway up, etc.
He says full range is a waste of time/energy and that you will be better off just focusing on a smaller range. Is there any benefit to this or is he just doing a smaller range of motion so he can stack on more weight and show off?
