Summary

Additional Effects of Upper Limb Blood Flow Restriction Training With Low Load Resistance Training On Strength, Arm Girth And Power In Fast Bowlers

Conditions

  • Sports Physical Therapy

Interventions

OTHER

Blood Flow restriction + Low Load resistance training

Participants allocated to experimental group took part in low-load resistance training combined with blood flow restriction applied by elastic occlusion wrap. The goal was to improve muscle strength and growth using weights while giving enough stimulus for muscles to adapt. Each session was started with warm-up of light aerobic exercises. After warm-up, BFR was applied using elastic wrap bands. The wrap was applied proximally on the arm following practical BFR methods in the literature.

OTHER

Low load Resistance training

This group participated in low-load resistance training without any BFR. Participants performed exercises like bicep curls and shoulder presses without applying BFR. Rather, they will lift weights equal to about 30% of their one repetition maximum to keep training light using low-loads. Similar to BFR group, this group will exercise twice a week for six weeks. This training will include two sets of 15 reps for each exercise with enough rest between them. Without blood flow restriction participants could perform the exercises with normal ROM and easier weight control
