so typically we use forty percent fourteen four zero yeah okay that's the pressure that we use when all we care about is muscle adaptations in other words increasing muscle size and strength

The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.
Native comments, Twitter mentions, and Reddit threads about this claim — surfaced together so the conversation isn't fragmented across platforms.

Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
the idea being is that you could be with the patient have them feel what 40 supposed to feel like and then say when you get home try to mimic this pressure
if 40 to 80 percent of occlusive pressure is the technical way to do it
so if the arterial occlusion pressure which is the lowest pressure of which there is no flow if that's a hundred millimeters of mercury then we'll typically apply anywhere between 40 and 80 millimeters of mercury in our lab at least yeah
there is a real art to this so I think it's — you know there's a clinical way that you want to be able to go about doing this where you have to it's not just put a tourniquet on which is what I used to do and hope for the best — because you you have to make sure the pressure is such that you are still allowing both blood in and blood out you're just trying to blunt that somewhat
