but the volume the exercise volume needed is much lower with the blood flow restriction limb
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.
Bookmarking — the dossier-vs-overview split is the right call. Most of the time I want overview; sometimes I want receipts.
Would love a "what would change this verdict" RSS feed. Sign me up if it exists.
i think with resistance exercise that might be a very fair statement to say that you're just causing the muscle to have to activate more of the muscle sooner and fatigue sooner than a non-occluded condition
yeah generally the blood flow friction will be better than a work matched control even if it's the same person with the caveat that it's not to failure
Good evidence that it promotes similar muscle development to doing traditional resistance training, regardless of the rep range.
