Summary

This study tests whether adding a technique called remote ischemic conditioning (briefly restricting blood flow with a cuff) to regular exercise can help adults over 65 with mobility problems build muscle strength, improve physical function, and increase resilience. About 20 participants will try the combined approach at home and in supervised sessions. The main goal is to see if the method is practical and acceptable for older adults.
