Low Resistance training with venous blood flow restriction

"Total 20 males will participate in this group after warmup , Blood flow restriction will be provided through sphygmomanometer optimum pressure will be measured through following formula occlusion pressure (mmHg) = 0.514 (SBP) + 0.339 (DBP) + 1.461 (Arm circumference) + 17.236 then 30% of 1RM will be used for training . The standard protocol will be used which is four sets (1st set-30 repetitions, 2nd set-15 repetitions, 3rd set-15 repetitions, and 4th set-15 repetitions) with 30-60 s of interval between sets. ( the cuff must be deflated between sets of exercise) for 8 weeks (24) sessions on non-consecutive days. participants will be re-assessed for all baseline variables after 8 weeks of training biceps curls will be used for training.~Heart Rate and oxygen saturation will be measured during the session through Pulse oximeter"

High Resistance training

Total 20 males will participate in this group after warm up. 80% of 1RM will be used for training, 3 sets of 8 repetitions will be used with 30-60 s of interval between sets. for 8 weeks (24) sessions on non-consecutive days.No blood flow restriction will be applied to this group Participants will be re-assessed for all baseline variables after 8 weeks of training. Bicep curls will be used for training.
