“ We now know what intensity level of strength training it takes to activate the BAG3 system, so we can optimize training programs for top athletes and help physical therapy patients build muscle better”
So.. what level would that be?

However, this assumption seems based on mouse experiments.
So, as ever, it's a case of 'watch this space'.
Anaesthetised mice.
Electro stimulus of sciatic nerve to induce contractions.
10 sets of 6 contractions, each contraction sustained for 3 seconds, 10 seconds rest after each contraction (rest between sets not described).
Mice allowed to recover in a cage with water but without any food, this is thought to progressively increase activation of mTOR signalling.
Result: hench mice.

Standard seems to be 3~5 sets?
