Muscle thickness at 50% and 70% of the distance between the acromion and cubital fossa, maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) at elbow angles of 40\u00b0 and 100\u00b0, and one\u2010repetition maximum (1RM) were measured pre\u2010 and postintervention. Bayesian analyses were employed to infer effects from posterior distributions. Results showed similar improvements in muscle thickness at 50% humeral length between conditions, whereas pROMinitial exhibited trivial to small superiority at 70% elbow flexor length (standardized mean difference [SMD]\u00a0=\u00a00.10 and Bayes factor\u00a0=\u00a04.87). Additionally, MVC at 100\u00b0 (SMD\u00a0=\u00a00.24 and Bayes factor\u00a0=\u00a03.02) and 1RM (SMD\u00a0=\u00a00.17 and Bayes factor\u00a0=\u00a01.95) demonstrated greater but negligible improvements with fROM, with weak to moderate evidence supporting the hypothesis of differential effectiveness across interventions. These findings suggest that pROMinitial may offer modest benefits for regional hypertrophy, particularly at longer muscle lengths. The results indicate that both training modalities can induce beneficial adaptations, with pROMinitial offering slight advantages in specific contexts.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Clinical Trial Registration<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study was registered at German Clinical Trials Register with the registration number DRKS00035811<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/ejsc.70087","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,17]],"date-time":"2025-11-17T14:40:14Z","timestamp":1763390414000},"source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Partial Range, Full Gains?
