Exaggerated pressor response to blood flow restriction resistance exercise is associated with a muscle metaboreflex-induced increase in blood pressure in young, healthy humans
Some researchers are concerned that exercise training with the blood flow restriction (BFR) technique induces an exaggeration in blood pressure response and potentiates adverse cardiovascular events. In the present study, we demonstrate that the blood pressure response to arm-curl exercise was intensified by the BFR technique, and the degree of intensification was associated with a blood pressure response to postexercise muscle ischemia of the elbow flexors, which elicit a muscle metaboreflex.
Novelty:
• BFR technique intensifies blood pressure response to exercise, which was associated with a blood pressure response in postexercise muscle ischemia-induced muscle metaboreflex.The accepted manuscript in pdf format is listed with the files at the bottom of this page.
