About

This study will be a study in which we take measurements with the myotonPRO device to determine whether the resistant exercises performed without the blood flow restrictive technique and with the blood flow restrictive technique affect the biceps muscle of the participants, who were divided into groups by randomization method after determining the 1 max repetition you can lift.

Enrollment: 57 estimated patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18 to 25 years old

Volunteers: Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion criteria

• Being a healthy male or female volunteer between 18 and 35 (who has not participated in any resistance training program for at least 6 months).
• Being right-hand dominant according to the results of the Edinburgh Handedness Inventory.

Exclusion criteria

• Having a history of biceps musculoskeletal injury.
• Having any condition that prevents participation in resistance exercise.
• Having cardiovascular disease.
• Using medication for blood pressure control.

Trial design

57 participants in 3 patient groups

progressive resistance exercise group with bfr (%80)

Description:

Participants in this group will perform progressive resistance exercises with 80% blood flow restriction (BFR) exposure, while muscle mechanical properties will be monitored and recorded during the process.

progressive resistance exercise group with bfr (%20)

Description:

Participants in this group will perform progressive resistance exercises with 20% blood flow restriction (BFR) exposure, while muscle mechanical properties will be monitored and recorded during the process.

Non-Blood Flow Restriction Group

Description:

Participants in this group will perform progressive resistance exercises without applying the blood flow restriction (BFR) technique, while muscle mechanical properties will be monitored and recorded during the process."
