Crankset question

Is it preferable to ride a tt bike with a slightly shorter crank length than that of your road bike?

My cycling coach advised me to do this and i did it. He said to me that it wqw beneficial for Timetrialling. After et making the change I dont know if it makes any difference to my Timetrialling or not.

I was thinking if it would put less pressure on my hips and thighs riding in the TT position using shorter cranks but then again would more leverage on your crankarm make you push more power out through the crankset?

What do people think?
