“…Previous studies examining changes in vascular conductance and limb blood flow included more exercise, with participants performing full body resistance training programs. 4,5 Since we utilized only two exercises, this may have limited our ability to observe changes in vascular conductance.…”

“…Traditional resistance exercise has been shown to improve limb blood flow and vascular conductance. 4,5 This might be important as basal limb blood flow is an important measure of cardiovascular health, associated with metabolic syndrome 6 and advancing age. 7,8 Interestingly, high load, low load, and low load resistance exercise with the application to blood flow restriction result in similar chronic adaptations in limb blood flow.…”

“…7,8 Interestingly, high load, low load, and low load resistance exercise with the application to blood flow restriction result in similar chronic adaptations in limb blood flow. 4,5 Although the mechanisms are not completely understood, there has been some suggestion that these changes may occur through reductions in myogenic modulation of vascular tone, 5 as well as increases in the number of arterioles and/or capillaries in parallel. 4 However, Dinenno et al 8 found that age-related reductions in basal whole-leg blood flow and vascular conductance are mediated primarily by tonically augmented sympathetic α-adrenergic vasoconstriction.…”

A training program consisting of working up to a one-repetition maximum (1RM) results in similar strength adaptations as traditional resistance exercise, while also decreasing the volume of work necessary to achieve this outcome. However, little is known regarding the cardiovascular adaptations to this type of training. Objective: To examine chronic changes in heart rate and blood pressure, as well as forearm and calf vascular conductance to either a traditional resistance exercise program or a biweekly 1RM-training program. Design and Methods: Participants trained for 8 weeks (2x/week) on the knee extension and chest press exercises. The HYPER group completed 4 sets of 8-12 repetitions; the 1RM group (TEST) worked up to a single maximal rep.

“…Recreationally active but not resistance trained men (age: 21 years) completed a 6‐week (3 sessions per week) training intervention using low‐intensity isotonic machine‐based resistance exercise with BFR (20% 1RM, n = 10), moderate intensity (45% 1RM, n = 9) or high‐load resistance exercise (70% 1RM, n = 12). For analyses, the moderate intensity and high‐load resistance exercise were combined into a single group, traditional resistance training (Fahs et al ., ). Participants were excluded for any of the following: known cardiovascular, pulmonary or metabolic disease, orthopaedic problems and smoking.…”

Hypertension is a risk factor for heart disease, and chronic exercise is recognized as a method for reducing resting blood pressure. Recent studies report that while exercise may benefit the majority of the population, the blood pressure adaptation is not always uniform; some individuals have an adverse blood pressure response to chronic aerobic exercise programmes. The purpose of this study was to examine the individual changes in resting blood pressure in response to exercise training regimens aimed at increasing muscle mass and strength. We have also included exercise (resistance and aerobic) in combination with blood flow restriction (BFR). Of 74 individuals, 11% had an increased risk, 16% had a decreased risk and 73% had no change in risk classification following exercise. The statistical analysis found that the group that decreased risk with exercise tended to have higher baseline levels of blood pressure. However, there were little baseline differences between the group that increased risk or the group that had no change in risk, suggesting that starting values may not necessarily determine who will see a beneficial response. In conclusion, the blood pressure adaptation to resistance training and exercise with BFR is not homogeneous with some participants increasing, decreasing or staying in the same risk category following an exercise intervention. These are important findings as they would not have been noted or discussed when looking only at the group means. Future research may identify molecular predictors so that individuals at risk for adverse events can be identified prior to exercise.

This study systematically reviewed the available scientific evidence on the changes promoted by low-intensity (LI) resistance training (RT) combined with blood flow restriction (BFR) on blood pressure (BP), heart rate (HR) and rate-pressure product (RPP). Searches were performed in databases (PubMed, Web of Science , Scopus and Google Scholar), for the period from January 1990 to May 2015. The study analysis was conducted through a critical review of contents. Of the 1 112 articles identified, 1 091 were excluded and 21 met the selection criteria, including 16 articles evaluating BP, 19 articles evaluating HR and four articles evaluating RPP. Divergent results were found when comparing the LI protocols with BFR versus LI versus high intensity (HI) on BP, HR and RPP. The evidence shows that the protocols using continuous BFR following a LIRT session apparently raise HR, BP and RPP compared with LI protocols without BFR, although increases significantly in BP seem to exist between the HI protocols when compared to LI protocols. Haemodynamic changes (HR, SBP, DBP, MBP, RPP) promoted by LIRT with BFR do not seem to differ between ages and body segments (upper or lower), although they are apparently affected by the width of the cuff and are higher with continuous BFR. However, these changes are within the normal range, rendering this method safe and feasible for special populations.
