Lately, I have noticed that most olympia guys (coleman, cutler, etc.) and guys of that upper level don't used full ROM during lifts such as bench press, db press, pull ups, etc. I have always used full ROM and am wondering why those guys don't fully extend their elbows at the top of the motion. I know that locking out takes pressure off the muscle. Is it better to not fully extend and keep the elbows slightly bend at the uppermost part of the rep on lets say bench? These guys are massive so obviously it works for them, but what about the normal guys like us? What is the reasoning behind this, and is it something I should be doing? It seems contrary to everything I've been doing. Lets discuss this. Thanks, John
