Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Purpose of the study is; to investigate the acute effects of exercises combined with blood flow restriction on strength, proprioception and functional motor performance in healthy individuals. The investigators hypothesized that blood flow restriction exercises has a positive effect on strength, proprioception and functional motor performance.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

60 healthy individuals will randomized into 3 groups of 20 people each. Participants will be held in a familiarization session before 3-4 days the actual evaluation. Elbow bending exercises with blood flow restriction will be performed to the blood flow restriction (BFR) group, elbow bending exercises without blood flow restriction will be performed to the exercise group and control group will not receive any interventions. Participants will be evaluated before and after the exercise session. Control group is going to rest for 10 minutes before the second evaluation. Evaluation protocol includes; muscle strength measurement with digital hand dynamometer, shoulder and elbow proprioception evaluation with inclinometer, Upper Extremity Closed Kinetic Chain Stabilization Test, Functional Throwing Performance Index and Modified Pull-Up Test.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Blood Flow Restriction Group

Elbow bending exercises with resistance exercise band (%20 of 1 maximum repetition) for one session. Blood flow restriction band will be placed during exercise session. The first set of exercises will be 30 repetitions then 3 sets of 15 repetitions. Totally 75 repetitions will be performed. 30 seconds rest interval between sets will be given.
