Summary

The primary objective of this prospective study is to investigate the effects of Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) training compared to traditional low-weight resistance training on grip strength in young adults.

Despite the growing interest in BFR training and its potential benefits, there is limited research specifically investigating its impact on grip strength. Understanding the effects of BFR training on grip strength could have significant implications for individuals seeking to optimize their grip performance, rehabilitation settings, and sports performance enhancement. Additionally, examining the safety and efficacy of BFR training for this specific outcome will contribute valuable insights to the scientific community.

Conditions

  • Healthy Volunteers

Interventions

OTHER

Blood flow restriction

Both groups will undergo a 6-week training intervention with training 2x a week, after which grip strength and other relevant outcomes will be measured and compared. Exercise sessions will be at least 48 hours apart. Participants will be allowed to continue with their normal exercise routine outside of the study.
