Strength Training With and Without Blood Flow Restriction on Shoulder Muscle Strength in Healthy Adults

Category Primary study
Registry of TrialsClinicalTrials.gov
Year 2025
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare two types of shoulder strength training: low-load training with blood-flow restriction (BFR) and high-load training without BFR. The study includes healthy adults. The main questions it aims to answer are: Are changes in shoulder strength, power, endurance, and muscle mass similar with low-load BFR and high-load training? Researchers will compare strength training with BFR to strength training without BFR to see whether changes in shoulder muscle performance are similar. Participants will: * Provide basic personal details, body measurements (e.g., height and weight), and a brief medical history before starting. * Train in one of the two programs (BFR or no BFR) two times per week for 4 weeks. * Complete tests of shoulder maximum strength, power, endurance, and muscle mass at the start and at the end of the protocol.
