    Abstract : Background Resistance training with high intensity has multiple health benefits but high intensity (>60% 1 repetition maximum) resistance training is sometimes contraindicated, thus exercise modalities that utilize lower intensity (≤60% 1 repetition maximum) could be used. Low intensity exercise does not normally yield the same benefits as high intensity but when combined with blood flow restriction (BFR) it has been shown to yield similar results to that of high intensity resistance training.
