    Author : Daniel Cortobius; Niklas Westblad; [2016]
    Keywords : muscle; hypertrophy; resistance; training; blood flow restricted exercise; quadriceps; tränarlänkdiverse;

    Abstract : Aim The main aim of this study was to investigate if a combination of classic resistance training and blood flow restricted resistance exercise (BFRE) training would result in greater increases in quadriceps muscle growth compared with other strength training studies. The second aim was to investigate if there would be any difference in muscle hypertrophy between men and women after the training intervention. READ MORE

  3. 8. Unilateral or Bilateral Training to Improve Amateur Female Handball Players’ Sprint Acceleration and Change of Direction Ability : A Quantitative Study Comparing Two Training Methods
