Just because you can lift more with T&G does not mean you are any stronger. You can lift more because of that plyo reflex. So train with more weight when doing the T&G and less weight with pause. You will get different benefits from both (per Haz.)
thanks for all the replies guys, it seems to be the general consensus that people only do it because they need to for comp. although it is good to mix it up from time to time.
i'll keep doing touch and go for now (i don't bounce it, i just don't pause it, it is a fluid motion). might throw in some paused reps now and again. my main concern with pausing is my tight chest/shoulders. don't want to pull/strain anything.
