Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
First consent form will be given to both male and female participants from 18 to 25 years of age and after that PAR-Q Questionnaire will be filled for every individual, so that we will check their readiness for the Exercise then all the four Vitals will measured from every individual .They will randomly assigned by lottery method to intervention group and control group. Both group individuals will be exerted by Warm up for 5 mints, heel raise in 3 sets for 10 to 15 mints until we get 4 on RPE scale, by asking to hold dumbbells of 2 kg on both of the hands. Rate of perceived exertion (RPE) is calculated by Borg grading scale .Plus, leg circumference, ROM of planter and dorsal flexion and numeric pain rating scale (NPRS) will be measured for comparison within and between the groups. Again vitals will be monitored.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Static stretching
Static stretching to lower limb muscles
Static Stretching
In Control group all the individuals will be asked to perform static stretching for 10 mints, 1 set . Vitals will be monitored from every individual. On 3rd day to this protocol leg circumference, ROM of planter and dorsal flexion and numeric pain rating scale (NPRS ) will be measured alone with all the Vitals from every individual.
Intermittent occlusion
Intermittent occlusion to lower limb
Intermittent Occlusion
Individuals of Interventional group will be asked to lay down in supine position, apply proximal thigh cuff, 220mg for 12 minutes for intermittent occlusion. During this procedure discomfort will be checked on numeric pain rating scale, if we get 6 on scale, will stop the occlusion. Vitals will be monitored from every individual. On 3rd day to this protocol leg circumference, ROM of planter and dorsal flexion and numeric pain rating scale (NPRS ) will be measured alone with all the Vitals from every individual
