Abstract
In this talk I will cover the history and basic physiology of using blood flow restriction training particularly for muscle growth and strength improvement. I will present research from our research group and that of others on the effects of blood flow restriction training. I will go over the current guidelines for using blood flow restriction with athletes wanting to increase muscle mass, strength and power. I will also cover how clinicians may use blood flow restriction training in the rehabilitation of patients.
