Reliability and Performance Analysis of the Use of Tissue Flossing for Blood Flow Restriction.
Sponsor: Paulista University
Summary
Blood flow restriction (RFS) is a widely studied technique that combines low-intensity exercise with vascular occlusion, resulting in muscular benefits. However, its application is challenging due to methodological variations and equipment costs. Tissue Flossing (TF) appears as an affordable alternative, but lacks solid scientific evidence.

Interventions
Tissue Flossing
Tissue Flossing ia a elastic band that when applied exerts an external pressure above or below a muscle or joint of the extremities.
Blood Flow Restriction Cuff
Inflatable device that exerts an external pressure above a muscle or joint of the extremities.
Training Protocol
The lower limb resistance training protocol will follow that recommended in the study by Patterson et al. for resistance training, and will last 4 weeks, with 3 training sessions per week, with a day break between sessions.
