Brief Summary

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

The blood flow restriction method can have similar or superior effects to high-intensity exercises even in a short duration, which can positively affect some performance parameters, can be applied with low-intensity load and cause hypertrophy in the muscle by providing high metabolic stress, facilitating muscle growth without significantly changing the total training dose. The aim of this study is to investigate whether adding the blood flow restriction method to the classical training program can be more effective than the classical training applied alone in the development of football-related performance parameters.

Blood Flow Restriction + Classical Training

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Blood Flow Restriction

Intervention Type OTHER

Blood flow restriction with low load (30-50% 1RM) for 2 sessions in a week for 6 weeks during classical training will be applied.

Classical Training Alone

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Classical Training Alone

Intervention Type OTHER

Classical training same as Group 1with moderate to high load (70-90% 1RM) for 2 sessions in a week for 6 weeks will be applied without blood restriction.
