Summary

This study looks at how walking with different levels of blood flow restriction (using cuffs on the legs) affects the heart, muscles, and walking patterns in healthy adults aged 60 to 90. Each participant will try four walking conditions, including one with no restriction, to compare results. The goal is to understand if this type of exercise is safe and how the body responds.
