I came from a plyometric background and switching to a mostly barbell routine was the best decision I've ever made. "high level" compound lifts are an athletic movement that requires a certain use of momentum not easily reversed without dangerous physiological strain. They carry the benefit of increasing the amount of both localized and systemic stress in a sustainable way for maximizing long term development. While I love eccentric training it should mainly restricted to isolations, or heavy negatives for the especially competent. Range of motion is an interesting concept, but I've accepted that there are restrictions on what positions the human body can safely apply it's full strength. For example, attempting to lift a heavy weight at a lower elevation than your feet places your body in an inherently unstable position, and thus prone to injury. Examine the bodies of gymnasts after they hit mid to late 20's to see the long term effects. However, increasing your strength in an anatomically favorable range of motion will make you stronger and more resistant to injury even outside of that range. Weighted pullups are actually some of the only "body weight" exercises I still do and cannot speak highly enough of them. Overhead press probably better than handstand for most people, but I still like them on occasion too. Would highly recommend reading starting strength and trying out their beginner program for a few months.
