Fitness Instructor Russ Howe explains why Partial Reps are a proven technique for buiding muscle mass. Most people stop working out when they reach failure but it's a great idea to utilize partial reps to take your body to ultimate failure and put yoursef into the zone for maximum muscle growth.

Next time you hit the gym, give this technique a try for yourself. It is important to remember, however, that the key to partial repetitions' success is to keep the body shocked. Don't perform them in every gym session, don't allow your muscles to expect it.
