To lift heavier weights, best to reduce your range of motion. Also in life, maybe in order to enact greater impact, also best to reduce your range of motion? That is, doing fewer things, but stronger.
For example, the reason why it is easier to lift heavier weights with a trap bar or hex bar deadlift; the bars are a little bit elevated off the floor. This means that the handles require less range of movement, but still the benefit is that technically, the weights themselves have a similar range of motion.
