ANSWER
I focused on range of motion and on holding the weight at its contraction point. My reps were a little bit slower, taking momentum out of the equation—which was a huge part of my development leading up to the 2011 Olympia.
On the rowing exercises, for example, I was really just trying to get a solid contraction and a good stretch at the top. I had to learn to focus on form instead of pure strength.
