Specific loads can be introduced to overcome pain inhibition by encouraging muscle contraction and relaxation, such as the reciprocal inhibition between the bicep and tricep.

“but then it's like okay, how do we get the brain to take the hand off the buzzer what loads can we introduce to make these muscles like one term in the in the muscoskeleletal world is reciprocal inhibition. So, if I'm going to contract my bicep like crazy, my tricep almost has to eventually get enough signals where it can't fire, right? Your brain might be trying to fire it and it's got this co-ontraction going on and there's that protection going on. But the more stimulus you give to that bicep, eventually that tricep has to let go.”
