U.S., Sept. 5 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07155967) titled 'Effect of Cross-Education in Blood Flow Restriction Resistance Training on Lower Limbs in Older Women' on Aug. 14.
Brief Summary: Unilateral resistance training has been shown to promote strength adaptations in the directly trained limb and also improve strength in the contralateral limb, a phenomenon known as cross-education (CE), with more pronounced effects observed in high-load training. However, high-load resistance training may be unfeasible for older adults. Blood flow restriction (BFR) training emerges as a low-load alternative that reduces joint stress, is easy to apply, and has low cost. Although there is already evidence ...
