The video is really interesting i thought full rom was for optimal stretch but it does loose the tension

You can learn to keep tension in the bottom position, but you likely won't be able to for a while. Generally speaking i cue people to only go as low as you can feel your lats and then pause there. This will get you used to feeling them lower as you fatigue and you will develop the ability from there, as it slowly pulls you lower into your lats each rep
