There's all these holes. You can tell what the finished product is supposed to be but you can tell some areas are more developed than others. To me, free weights fill out that puzzle and leave things balances. You may not be a 1000 piece puzzle, maybe only a 100 piece, but you better make sure that puzzle is finished.
Could you post a picture giving an example and showing me what you mean?
I have heard people say this before but I honestly have no idea what they mean.
Unless you mean lacking muscle in certain areas such as spinal erectors?
My favorite MR for back include...
1 arm cable rows
Chest supported rows changing my hand position slightly on each mini set
I did MR's for deadlifts before but as Scott has pointed out it's not suitable.
You end up breathing so hard it can be dangerous as far as form breaking down goes.
Plus a true muscle round with a failure point in there would be CNS and body destroying. If I did an all out set I would be done with all training for a few days!
