Optimizing the use of blood flow restriction for pre-conditioning & recovery of human performance
I am exploring the use of restricting blood flow from muscles (using a tourniquet or blood pressure cuff) to better prepare an athletes body for competition. This technique, known as ischemic preconditioning (IPC), has demonstrated enormous potential for improving the performance of already well-trained athletes. Preliminary work has shown a 1-3% improvement in performance in […]
