“some speculate it this metabolic stress causing the hypertrophy produced by Blood Flow Restriction Training they believe mechanical tension must be low since Blood Flow Restriction Training involves using very light loads however as detailed in this great 2017 USA review study this is based on an incorrect view of mechanical tension”
