Summary

Blood Flow Restrictive Exercises (BFR) provide strength increase with less load than required for traditional muscle strengthening and power. As an alternative for populations that have difficulty training with high loads and speeds, low-intensity BFR training has been shown to improve muscle strength and aerobic parameters and to be safe, even in professional athletes and individuals with chronic diseases in various populations. The aim of our study is to examine the effects of BFR applied to the upper extremity on upper extremity muscle strength and performance in basketball players.

Blood Flow Restriction

Before BFR training, a repetition maximal (1-RM) test will be determined by selecting a weight with which athletes can perform a maximum of 10 repetitions. The number of repetitions obtained here and the weight lifted will be written into the Brzycki formula, whose validity and reliability has been proven, and 1-TM will be calculated. Brzycki formula; 1-TM = \[100 x (Weight Lifted) / \[(102.78 - 2.78 x (Number of Reps)\] The arterial occlusion pressure of the participants will be measured with a Doppler Ultrasound device by increasing the cuff to the point where the auscultatory pulse of the brachial artery ceases until occlusion occurs in the brachial artery. Then, 60% of this value will be calculated and BFR will be performed during the exercises.
