Ego lifting

I do this on bench... I do 4-6 reps and never lift the recommended 8-12.. do you guys ever do this?

Yeah, I do it... Its hard not to. Watching lots of weight move is fun.

I have done this before...but then I realized how much muscle I started to gain as I did controlled reps with full range of motion.
