100 reps per day is better for many injuries than any peptide, supplement, or even surgical intervention

No, it’s the essence of not knowing how to read

I already answered the questions you pose that are legitimate questions

No, I read just fine and I don't need to further my education to understand your posts! I'm just asking you to expound upon things. Why is 100 reps required for the proper amount of blood flow? Why not 20, 25, 40, 50, etc. I'm not debating you, I'm just trying to get more detailed information. Like I asked, 100 reps of what? What injuries? Are you drawing on personal experience? There are soft tissue injuries where repetition is the cause of inflammation, and adding more repetition will most likely make things worse.

I mean bio is one of the chillest people here, and has a lot of great health related threads and information.

I didn’t even realize he was the person you were going at until now.

That meth really messed you up man.

100 reps was actually the number computed by Vin Diesel. He also proved that it takes exactly 500 fights to be a baddass. I personally am shocked that you doubt Diesel math (Steiner math is good 2)

Louie Simmons was a huge proponent of this and I have heard Dave Tate talk about it many times. The idea being to do super super light work daily with the injured part to just get some movement to reduce stiffness setting in, flush nutrient rich blood to the area. He would do it with bands only or empty bar and slow work up tiny weights at a time. Watched a guy rehab a pec tear from broom stick to 2 plates pain free in about 2 months with it. I think it is another method that might not have great scientific backing but the anecdotal evidence is strong.

 

[Bio]

I had a quad tendon complete rupture and then surgical re-attachment Fall 2024 and my doctor (who does tons of these proceedures) said the most common demographic was me (active male in 40's) and the most common way dudes messed up the surgery was by being impatient and trying to move the joint before the metal anchors had fully set in the bone. He also said that muscle memory in weightlifters (especially supplemented ones) can cause the muscle to come back much faster than the tendon strength and that could cause issues. I did exactly what he said and when it was time to rehab things went super smooth.

Just saying that OP blanket statement might not always be the best tact.

This is what I was trying to get at. The devil is in the details. I understand that getting blood/oxygen into an area for healing can be beneficial for certain issues/injuries. I'm just trying to get the OP to expound on all of this because someone who has had your injury, Fa Seeshus, might start doing 100 reps of some exercise and although the weight may be light, it may do more harm than good. I love when members speak up and share their experiences and this thread could be incredibly beneficial, as long as there's more detail involved!

I have looked but I’d assume we have plenty of scientific data to support increased bloodflow to an area being beneficent in recovery.

I just banned you for being a dickhead.

When you come back, you have some apologising to do.

Damn its not very often that the man himself slaps a ban on someone

This is a great movie even if cheesy lol.

The Rock and Diesel were much better before they sold out to franchises.

Nah, homeboy came at me first with some BS that was already implicit in my original post

 

[Biggerp73]

if the injury is such that you can do light to moderate weight repetitions,

^^ all the supposed “pushback” came from people unable to read

Why the vitriol? He asked legit questions here.

See the above

I hate to chime in on such a volatile thread, but this is how I "fixed" a biceps tendon injury. After 18 months of pain and no progress with therapy and anti inflammatory and steroids. High reps (40+/set), low weight with movement through the range of motion that caused the pain. 60 days later, and I'm pain/inflammation free and back to 90% of my normal curling weight.

I don't get some people. When i am dealing with the cops they have a gun, handcuffs and ticket book. Challenging them and telling them off is just not in my best interest.

I disagree that it made things clear. It felt like it was making assumptions. Why not have a conversation about it and get more into the details?

Came at you? Come on BP, you have to have thicker skin than that? I was trying to spur conversation to get more into the details.
