When Johnny's indisposed the podcast gets hijacked by Kyle, Zac and Ben. Johnny's loss is your win essentially. In this episode we discuss two recent papers that further help to elucidate the efficacy and effectiveness of BFR in combination with aerobic exercise. Here are the two papers we reviewed: Smith, N. D. W., Girard, O., Scott, B. R., & Peiffer, J. J. (2024). A comparison of physiological and perceptual responses to fixed‐power and perceptually regulated cycling with and without blood flow restriction in trained cyclists.

B., & Burr, J. F. (2023). Low- and high-volume blood-flow restriction treadmill walking both improve maximal aerobic capacity independently of blood volume.

In this episode of the Owens Recovery Science podcast we chat with Laura Opstedal, PT of Build Physio in Bozeman, MT. Laura has extensive experience rehabbing Achilles repairs over the course of her career which provides her a first-hand perspective on the evolution of surgical techniques as well as integrating forms of measurement like force plates and novel treatment strategies like early weight bearing and BFR. Within we talk all things Achilles which apparently we’re now calling the Taylor Swift of tendons.

In this episode Johnny and Kyle talk with Adam Weaver, PT and Dylan Roman, PT of Connecticut Children’s. They were part of a team that recently published a paper in The Orthopedic Journal of Sports Medicine detailing the results of a trial they conducted using BFR following ACLR in adolescents (12-18 y/o’s). The title of their paper is: Early- and Late-Stage Benefits of Blood Flow Restriction Training on Knee Strength in Adolescents After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Here’s a link to the paper: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/23259671231213034 Intro backing track from: Trick or Treat (instrumental) by RYYZN https://soundcloud.com/ryyzn Creative Commons — Attribution 3.0 Unported — CC BY 3.0 Free Download / Stream: https://bit.ly/l_trick-or-treat Music promoted by Audio Library https://youtu.be/uNPXJ9CDzbc

Well Kyle got his knickers in a bunch over an article’s title so we decided to talk about it for an hour or so. Within, Johnny, Ben, Zac, and Kyle talk about how they go about screening BFR papers to decide if they deserve a closer read. The paper that got this conversation going: * Grossl, F. S., Da-Sila-Grigoletto, M. E., Ferretti, F., Copatti, S. L., Corralo, V. da S., & De-Sá, C. A. (2023).
