Summary

This study investigated the effects of low-load resistance training combined with blood flow restriction (BFRT) compared to traditional high-load resistance training on arm muscle strength and isokinetic contraction parameters in healthy young adults. Participants were prospectively assigned to either a low-load BFRT group or a high-load resistance training group for a 7-week intervention period. Muscle strength and isokinetic peak torque were assessed before and after the intervention. The primary objective was to determine whether low-load BFRT produces comparable improvements in muscle strength and isokinetic performance to high-load resistance training.

Conditions

  • Muscle Strength
  • Resistance Training
  • Blood Flow Restriction

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Low Load Blood Flow Restriction Training

Low-load resistance training performed at 30% of one-repetition maximum with individualized blood flow restriction pressure.

PROCEDURE

High Load Resistance Training

Traditional resistance training performed at 70% of one-repetition maximum without blood flow restriction.
