Blood Flow Restriction Exercise

Following a 5-minute low intensity warm-up, the BFR cuff will be placed at the most proximal portion of the leg and dosed following standard BFR guidelines: 1 set of 30 reps, then 3 sets of 15 reps at 20-30% 1RM with up to 80% limb occlusion. Exercises will target bilateral 1) knee and hip extension, 2) hip abduction, and 3) ankle plantarflexion, as these muscles are important for functional mobility in people with MS.
