Study Overview
Brief Summary
To evaluate the effect of blood flow restriction combined with aerobic training on chest muscle strength in individual with diaplegic cerebral palsy
Detailed Description
combining blood flow restriction with aerobic training may enhance muscle function and endurance by increasing localized metabolic stress and systemic cardiovascular effects inducing muscular hypertrophy and strength gaining with low load training especially chest muscles which affected in individuals with diaplegic cerebral palsy.
