Mechanisms underlying mechanical overload-induced skeletal muscle hypertrophy have
been extensively researched since the landmark report by Morpurgo (1897) of “work …

The current manuscript sets out a series of guidelines for blood flow restriction exercise,
focusing on the methodology, application and safety of this mode of training. With the …

Hypertrophy can be operationally defined as an increase in the axial cross-sectional area of
a muscle fiber or whole muscle, and is due to increases in the size of pre-existing muscle …

Blood flow restriction (BFR) is an expanding rehabilitation modality that uses a tourniquet to
reduce arterial inflow and occlude venous outflow in the setting of resistance training or …

The use of blood flow restricted (BFR) exercise has become an accepted alternative

Skeletal muscle is a plastic tissue that regenerates ad integrum after injury and adapts to
raise mechanical loading/contractile activity by increasing its mass and/or myofiber size, a …

Blood flow‐restricted resistance exercise (BFRRE) has been shown to induce increases in
muscle size and strength, and continues to generate interest from both clinical and basic …

Blood flow restriction (BFR) with low-load resistance exercise (RE) is often used as a
surrogate to traditional high-load RE to stimulate muscular adaptations, such as hypertrophy …
