Abstract
Introduction: The purpose of this study was comparison of traditional resistance training and resistance training with blood flow restriction on muscle damage and the level of CPK and LDH on men bodybuilders
Materials and Methods: In this study, 40 healthy volunteer men bodybuilder were randomly divided into traditional resistance training (TRT) and resistance training with blood flow restriction (BFR). Both groups performed the same training program. The RTR group performed the movement with 70-75% 1RM and the BFR group performed the movement with 25-30% 1RM. The program 90 minutes consisted of 10×3 with 1 minutes of active recovery between sets. The program was implemented for 8 weeks.
Results: The results indicate that BFR training led to a significant reduction of LDH and CPK compare to the RTR group. BFR also caused less muscle damage compare to RTR. (P<0.001)
Conclusion: The present study revealed that BFR causes less damage to muscle and reduce releasing CPK and LDH. BFR can be a safer method to reduce muscle damage and cause less damage to ligaments compare to TRT training.
