High-intensity training methods are generally recommended to increase muscle mass and strength, with loads of 60-70% 1RM for novice 80-100% advanced individuals. Blood flow restriction training, despite using lower intensities (30-50% 1RM), can provide similar improvements in strength. However, studies commonly investigate the effects blood large muscular groups, whereas there few that investigated those smaller such as muscles involved grasping (e.g, wrist flexors; finger flexors). Clinically, groups should also be considered intervention programs, given repetitive stress, repeated strain injuries, affects upper limbs may lead chronic pain incapacity work. The purpose present study was examine strength anthropometric indicators volume young women.The effect handgrip (HGS) women traditional even loads.Twenty-eight university students, 18 25 years age, were randomly assigned into two (BFR, n = 14) (TRAD, 14). measures maximum (MHGS) test performed before after intervention. participants did three weekly sessions dynamic concentric contraction exercises on a dynamometer four weeks (12 sessions). Each session had time length five minutes intensity established from percentage MHGS at 30-35% first week, 40-45% second 50-55% third/fourth weeks. Three sets 15-25 repetitions until failure 30 seconds rest BFR 8-12 one-minute TRAD training.A significant found arm circumference (20.6 ± 2.2 vs 21.6 1.7cm) right (32.7 4.5 34.3 4.1 kgf) left (28.0 5.5 30.9 (27.6 5.0 31.0 6.1 training.Dynamometer restriction, low moderate loads, more effective than increasing HGS women.2b.
