Ya... you have a good point.... the marathon would be the stress factor... when lactic acid is at its highest in the organism.Ah, you just hit the appropriate stresser (depending on whom you talk to) when you mentioned the marathon.
It's like the debate, wind on the plants or not? Wiggle them around or not? In my experience with things like trees (I'm leaving that cut of AC/DC out of this discussion, that girl is just WEAK, nothing I did got her stronger) if you tie them up and support them constantly, you're always going to have to and can expect some other problems to pop up. Instead, let them experience snow load, let them experience wind, etc, and you'll get a stronger plant.
I mean, quite literally, stress is one of the huge drivers of evolution, right? :D
Now, I've never done what's being discussed here, honestly because I didn't think there was anything to it. But I'm willing to keep my mind open.
This has been used for years on fruit trees....I thought this stuff was discredited years ago; ie hang them upside down after harvest so the resin goes to the heads, hammer a nail through the stem, split the stem, don't water days before harvest etc.
Problem is because of long term illegality, there have been no scientific tests done.
Light leaks cause hermies is another old wives tail.
Thank you. I found myself scratching my head that we've got two threads on the exact same subject in one week. I'm merging the threads.
I realize this post is old, but...after you stick the metal rod thru your leg...your body does things it can't do under low-stress situations. It's an involuntary reaction/survival instinct thing. So you disproved your own post with your example. IMOI can agree with that to some point but take a metal rod ad shove it threw your leg after doing a marathon and let me know how ya feel about working hard right after
