Summary
The transverse abdominis (TrA) is the deepest muscle layer of lateral and anterior abdominal wall and also known as a significant component of core stability. Abdominal draw-in maneuver (ADIM) is the main for the strengthening of the deep muscle, however, sufficient activation of TrA by ADIM is limited. Blood flow restriction (BFR) training is a technique combined with low intensity exercise that produces similar results to high intensity training. However, there is few evidences for BFR training on core muscles.
Healthy adults (age ranged 18-34 years and BMI between 18.5~24.99) were randomly recruited in
the study. For the intervention group, an inflatable cuff (14 cm in width * 84 cm in length)
is warped around abdominal muscles below ribs which may cause to at least 60% restriction of
blood flow detected by Power
This study expects to provide a new alternative way to improve the muscle activation, strength and activation of transverse abdominis in abdominal draw-in maneuver combined with blood flow restriction
