Official Title: Acute Effects of Autoregulated and Non-autoregulated Blood Flow Restrictive Bicep Curls on Indices of Arterial Stiffness and Muscle Morphology
Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to investigate the acute effects of autoregulated (AR) and non-autoregulated (NAR) blood flow restriction (BFR) bicep curls on indices of arterial stiffness.We are attempting to differentiate physiological changes with AR and NAR bicep curl exercise.Twenty adults aged 18-40 years old will undergo three treatment sessions (control (no BFR), AR BFR and NAR BFR) in a randomized order separated by one week.A familiarization session will also occur one week before starting the treatment…
