Effects of low-load blood flow restriction on the venous system in comparison to traditional low-load and high-load exercises

Purpose: Blood-Flow-Restriction (BFR) training provides the ability to achieve hypertrophy effects even though only light mechanical loads are applied. However, its impact on venous pressures and function are still unknown. Therefore, the present study investigates the influence of BFR-training on i...
