Vascular occlusion training as an alternate method of gaining muscle

conference contribution
posted on 2013-01-01, 00:00 authored by Liam LyonsLiam Lyons, Matthew JoordensMatthew Joordens, Stuart WarmingtonStuart Warmington
Training whilst under the effects of vascular occlusion has become increasingly popular due to the resultant muscle gain associated with this training technique. However, when exercising with the use of a tourniquet type device, it is possible for the pressure being applied to be inconsistent, due the constantly changing cross sectional area of the limb being occluded. This Paper describes the design of a device capable of causing vascular occlusion, but also being able to maintain a stable pressure required to create the blood flow restriction, this being able to be utilized in a sports science environment
