Table 1.
Changes in cross-sectional area and volume of elbow flexors muscles.
Figure 1.
Muscle activation of biceps brachii muscles during concentric or eccentric BFR exercise for each set performed.
Average for each 5-repetitions was represented as a single data point. Values are means and SD. **Different from first 5-reps, P<0.01. ##Different from ECC-BFR, P<0.01. #Different from ECC-BFR, P<0.05.
Figure 2.
Muscle thickness (MTH) of the elbow flexors before and immediately after exercise session.
Values are means and SD. *Different from before, P<0.05. #Different from ECC-BFR, P<0.05. §Different from ECC-BFR, P = 0.07.

Distribution of muscle cross-sectional area (CSA) in elbow flexors pre- and post-training period.
Values are means and SD.
Figure 4.
Maximum isometric strength (MVC) of the elbow flexors pre- and post- training period.
Values are means and SD. *Different from pre-training, P<0.05.
