Filter by:Recent research in strength training physiology revealed that implementation of occlusion garments around the proximal aspect of the lower limbs in combination with low load strength training causes a reduced blood flow and thus providing a high metabolic stimulus, causing a training effect similar to high load training. This study will investigate the added effect of BFR focussing on functional outcome, pain-management and lower limb strength in patients with knee osteoarthritis. Therefore, 234 patiens will be divided into three equal groups (n=78), (control group, sham group and BFR-group) which will be subjected to a 12-week during standard strength training program, 2 times a week for 60 minutes. The first group, which will be submitted to low load resistance training commonly used in contemporary physiotherapy for OA, will serve as a control group whereas both the BFRT and Sham groups will objectify the additional value of implementing vascular occlusion in respective low load resistance training protocol.
While there are a number studies that have reported on the use of BFR in the adult population, there is limited information about the use of BFR in the adolescent population. This study aims to evaluate the use of BFR training in conjunction with traditional ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) reconstruction rehabilitation in adolescents. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the addition of BFR-based exercise to traditional methods of physical therapy. Does the use of BFR-based exercise improve strength, hypertrophy, functional and patient reported outcomes after ACL Reconstruction in the adolescent population?
This study expects to provide a new alternative way to improve the muscle activation, strength and activation of transverse abdominis in abdominal draw-in maneuver combined with blood flow restriction.
The current study will investigate the effects of Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) training and L-arginine supplementation on recreationally trained female participants. In particular, it will compare performance outcomes and blood markers among two intervention groups (BFR and BFR+Arg) and a control group (CON).
