The effect of acute low-load resistance exercise with the addition of blood flow occlusion on muscle function in children and adults
… to increase muscular strength suggest using high loads. However, some individuals cannot withstand high mechanical stress. Thus, in adults, low-load training is used with blood flow occlusion (BFO), to mimic strength increases from high-load training. Due to differing physiological responses to …

Does Blood Flow Restriction Applied Post High-Load Exercise Augment Skeletal Muscle Growth Following Eight Weeks of Training?
The application of blood flow restriction during low load exercise has consistently been shown to augment muscle hypertrophy which has been attributed to metabolic accumulation. It remains unknown, however, whether metabolites can augment muscle growth independent of further mechanical tension, …

Acute and Chronic Vascular Responses to Blood Flow Restriction in the Upper Body
Blood flow restriction (BFR) with low load exercise increases muscular size and strength. Little is known of vascular adaptations to this training modality, and nothing was known at very low loads. These studies examined cardiovascular responses to high load (70% of one-repetition maximum (1RM)) …

The Blood Flow and Perceptual Response To Lower Body Resistance Training With and Without Blood Flow Restriction
<p>The muscular response to low-load resistance exercise in combination with blood flow restriction (BFR) is well studied but less was known about the cardiovascular response. It was also unknown what impact resistance exercise at 15% 1RM with or without BFR would have on the acute and chronic …
