Summary

This study tests a special exercise method called low load blood flow restriction training for people with disabilities who struggle with standard workouts. The approach uses a cuff on the arm to lightly restrict blood flow during easy exercises, aiming to build muscle strength and size without heavy weights. Researchers will compare this method to regular low-load exercise in 24 adults to see if it is more effective for improving muscle health.
