INTENT LOAD-INDUCED RANGE OF MOTION RESTRICTION(Part 8) Range of motion isn’t controlled by you alone. Your nervous system is always involved. When load, speed, or stability exceed what the body can safely control, the nervous system will automatically restrict range of motion to protect you — even if you’re consciously trying to force it. Here’s the key distinction: The nervous system is the mechanism. Ego is the cause. Ego-driven load selection creates a perceived threat. In response, the nervous system limits depth, tightens stabilizers, and redistributes tension to safer, stronger muscles. The outcome is always the same: shortened reps and reduced stimulus to the target muscle. This isn’t a technique or discipline issue. It’s protection. A simple example is the flat dumbbell press. With an appropriate load, you can control the eccentric, open the chest, and sink into a deep, lengthened position while keeping tension on the pecs. Increase the load beyond what you can stabilize, and range of motion disappears — not because of weakness, but because your body won’t allow you into a vulnerable position under threat. Once a lengthened position is perceived as unsafe, it’s inaccessible — and that’s the position where hypertrophy is driven most effectively. With the right load, the opposite happens. You gain control, access deeper ranges, and keep tension exactly where it belongs. The goal isn’t to move heavier weight from A to B. It’s to choose the load that allows the target muscle to do the work without compensation. I’ll be posting the next clip every day.
