Effects of Low Resistance Venous Blood Flow Restriction Training (LR-VBFRT) on Biceps Brachii Muscle Performance

Riphah International University·interventional·Posted Nov 29, 2019·Updated Jan 22, 2020

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating Low Resistance training with venous blood flow restriction and High Resistance training for Muscle Weakness Condition. Completed, enrolled 40 participants across 1 site.

Detailed Summary

Resistance training has been widely recognized as an effective stimulus for increasing skeletal muscle size and strength. This study intends to compare the effects of high resistance training without blood flow restriction and the low resistance training with blood flow restriction training on bicep muscle performance.

Interventions

Low Resistance training with venous blood flow restrictionother

Total 20 males will participate in this group after warmup , Blood flow restriction will be provided through sphygmomanometer optimum pressure will be measured through following formula occlusion pressure (mmHg) = 0.514 (SBP) + 0.339 (DBP) + 1.461 (Arm circumference) + 17.236 then 30% of 1RM will be used for training . The standard protocol will be used which is four sets (1st set-30 repetitions, 2nd set-15 repetitions, 3rd set-15 repetitions, and 4th set-15 repetitions) with 30-60 s of interval between sets. ( the cuff must be deflated between sets of exercise) for 8 weeks (24) sessions on non-consecutive days. participants will be re-assessed for all baseline variables after 8 weeks of training biceps curls will be used for training. Heart Rate and oxygen saturation will be measured during the session through Pulse oximeter

High Resistance trainingother

Total 20 males will participate in this group after warm up. 80% of 1RM will be used for training, 3 sets of 8 repetitions will be used with 30-60 s of interval between sets. for 8 weeks (24) sessions on non-consecutive days.No blood flow restriction will be applied to this group Participants will be re-assessed for all baseline variables after 8 weeks of training. Bicep curls will be used for training.
