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 …

Introduction Heavy‐load strength training (HLT) is generally considered the Gold Standard
exercise modality for inducing gains in skeletal muscle strength. However, use of heavy …

Muscle weakness and atrophy are common impairments after musculoskeletal injury. Blood
flow restriction (BFR) training offers the ability to mitigate weakness and atrophy without …

Background: There is growing evidence to support the use of low-load blood flow restriction
(LL-BFR) exercise in musculoskeletal rehabilitation. Purpose: The purpose of this study was …

Background: A major goal of rehabilitation after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction
(ACLR) is restoring quadriceps muscle strength. Unfortunately, current rehabilitation …

Background: Blood flow restriction (BFR) training involves low-weight exercises performed
under vascular occlusion via an inflatable cuff. For patients who cannot tolerate high-load …

Background Quadriceps strength and mass deficits are common after anterior cruciate
ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Postoperatively, heavy load resistance training can have …

Quadriceps atrophy and weakness can persist for years after anterior cruciate ligament
reconstruction (ACLR). We evaluated the effectiveness of a home-based blood flow …

Objective To compare the gain in muscle strength in the quadriceps and hamstring muscles
in patients following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery, using exercises with …

Background: Low-load blood flow restriction (BFR) training has attracted attention as a
potentially effective method of perioperative clinical rehabilitation for patients undergoing …
