Brief Summary

It was to compare the effect of low-load resistance training with blood flow restriction (LL-BFR) and high-intensity resistance training (HI-RT) on muscle strength, endurance and volume, functional performance, and delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). The study included 13 young women. It is a controlled study designed for individuals to perform two different exercise protocols unilaterally. The persons were randomly allocated into two groups as LI- BFR (Group I, n = 13) and HI-RT (Group II, n = 13). Both groups received training for 6 weeks and 3 days a week. Blood flow restriction was performed only in group I.

Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness

Keywords

muscle hypertrophy; triceps brachii; muscle strength

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (5)

• triceps muscle thickness

  Triceps brachial (TB) long head thickness was measured using the Esaote mylab C series ultrasound device.

  6 weeks

• triceps and biceps strength

  Triceps brachial muscle strength was evaluated with an isokinetic dynamometer (Cybex HUMAC / NORM, CSMI, 2004). Isometric muscle strength measurement was performed at the beginning and end of the study at angular velocities of 0-150 ° elbow range, 60 ° / s (strength measurement)

  6 weeks

• triceps and biceps endurance

  Triceps brachial muscle strength was evaluated with an isokinetic dynamometer (Cybex HUMAC / NORM, CSMI, 2004). Isometric muscle strength measurement was performed at the beginning and end of the study at angular velocities of 0-150 ° elbow range, 180 ° / s (endurance measurement).

  6 weeks

• functional performances

Interventions

Low Intensity Exercises with Blood Flow Restriction OTHER

In the exercise protocol, people exercised resistance between 20% and 30% of 1 MaxRepetition with free weight. In addition, blood flow was restricted in 70% of the arterial occlusion pressure of the individual with the help of a cuff during exercise.

Low Intensity Blood Flow Restriction Group

High Intensity Resistant Exercise OTHER

People included in the study did resistance exercise with free weight at 70-80% of 1 MT.

High Intensity Resistant Training Group
