REGRESSION · HOW TO DO IT
Supported partial-range rotation
These steps are written specifically for the Supported partial-range rotation. Follow them in order and stop before you lose the position.
- 01Set up your version
Set up specifically for the Supported partial-range rotation. Use a stable support for balance or assistance, but keep the working muscles responsible for the rep.
- 02Move the pattern
Keeping the elbow planted, rotate the forearm upward by turning only at the shoulder.
- 03Match the demand
Use the smaller named range and reverse before position or control changes.
- 04Finish with control
Stop where you could hold the dumbbell still, then lower through the same path slowly. Use a load you can stop anywhere.

Supported partial-range rotation
Sets: 3 · Reps: 8–15 per side
Supported partial-range rotation is a regression of External Shoulder Rotation. Use the written card above for its exact setup and execution.
Control range: Control work builds strength through rotation, balance, or a position you hold steady.
WHY IT EARNS A SPOT
Own the position,
then earn the load.
Support fixes the humerus and lets the rotator cuff control rotation through a precise range without compensating through the torso.
