Journal ArticleDOI

Strength training with blood flow restriction diminishes myostatin gene expression.

TL;DR: LIR was able to induce gains in 1RM and quadriceps CSA similar to those observed after traditional HI, and may be related to the concomitant decrease in MSTN and increase in FLST isoforms, GASP-1, and SMAD-7 mRNA gene expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of strength training and vascular occlusion

TL;DR: It is concluded that vascular occlusion in combination with high-intensity strength training does not augment muscle strength or hypertrophy when compared to high- intensity strength training alone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of exercise intensity and occlusion pressure after 12 weeks of resistance training with blood-flow restriction

TL;DR: BFRT protocols benefit from higher occlusion pressure (80 %) when exercising at very low intensities when considering muscle strength, and conventional high-intensity resistance training (RT) protocols seem less effective than high- intensity RT.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of different intensities of resistance training with equated volume load on muscle strength and hypertrophy.

TL;DR: When low to high intensities of RT are performed with volume-matched, all intensities were effective for increasing muscle strength and size; however, 20% 1RM was suboptimal in this regard, and only the heavier RT intensity was shown superior for increasing strength and CSA compared to low intensities.
