Resistance Training With Partial Blood Flow Restriction in a 99-Year-Old Individual: A Case Report

Frontiers in Sports and Active Living, 2021
In aging populations for which the use of high loads is contraindicated, low load resistance training associated with blood flow restriction (RT-BFR) is an alternative strategy to induce muscle mass gains. This study investigates the effects of RT-BFR on

Effects of resistance training with controlled versus self-selected repetition duration on muscle mass and strength in untrained men [PDF]

PeerJ, 2020
The aim of this study was to compare the effect of self-selected repetition duration (SELF), with and without volume load (VL) equalized with controlled repetition duration (CON) on muscle strength and hypertrophy in untrained males.

Resistance training combined with blood flow restriction in cirrhosis: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial

Trials, 2020
Background Patients affected by hepatic cirrhosis show reductions in muscle mass and function, with poor quality of life and functional performance. As such, resistance training with blood flow restriction (BFR-RT) could be a useful therapeutic tool for ...

The Association Between Muscle Deoxygenation and Muscle Hypertrophy to Blood Flow Restricted Training Performed at High and Low Loads

Frontiers in Physiology, 2019
The metabolic stress induced by blood flow restriction (BFR) during resistance training (RT) might maximize muscle growth. However, it is currently unknown whether metabolic stress are associated with muscle hypertrophy after RT protocols with high- or ...
