MANINI, T.M. and B.C. CLARK. Blood flow restricted exercise and skeletal muscle health. Exerc. Sport Sci. Rev., Vol. 37, No. 2, pp. 78-85, 2009. For nearly half a century, high mechanical loading and mechanotransduction pathways have guided exercise recommendations for inducing muscle hypertrophy. However, emerging research on low-intensity exercise with blood flow restriction challenges this paradigm. This article will describe the BFR exercise model and discuss its efficacy, potential mechanisms, and clinical viability.
