Skeletal Muscle Microvascular Changes in Response to Short-Term Blood Flow Restricted Training—Exercise-Induced Adaptations and Signs of Perivascular Stress

Aim: Previous reports suggest that low-load muscle exercise performed under blood flow restriction (BFR) may lead to endurance adaptations. However, only few and conflicting results exist on the magnitude and timing of microvascular adaptations, overall indicating a lack of angiogenesis with BFR tra...
