Myocellular Adaptations to Low-Load Blood Flow Restricted Resistance Training

摘要

Low-load blood flow restricted resistance exercise (BFRRE) can stimulate whole-muscle growth and improve muscle function. However, limited knowledge exists on the effects at the myocellular level. We hypothesize that BFRRE has the ability to produce concurrent skeletal muscle myofibrillar, mitochondrial, and microvascular adaptations, thus offering an alternative strategy to counteract decay in skeletal muscle health and function in clinical populations.
