Summary

A randomised controlled trial evaluating the feasibility and acceptability of a 12 week lower body blood flow restricted resistance exercise programme for people with peripheral arterial disease.

Conditions

  • Peripheral Arterial Disease

Interventions

OTHER

Blood flow restricted resistance exercise (BFR)

Following a 5-minute low intensity warm-up, the BFR cuff will be placed at the most proximal portion of the leg inflated to 50% limb occlusion following standard BFR guidelines. Participants will then perform leg press including 1 set of 30 reps, then 3 sets of 15 reps at 20% 1RM. Rest for 5 minutes without cuff inflation. Cuffs will be re inflated and participants will perform knee extension including 3 x 15 repetitions at 20% 1RM.

OTHER

Resistance exercise without blood flow restricted (NON-BFR)

Participants will follow the same exercise protocol as the blood flow restriction group but with out BFR.
