Purpose: The Purpose of this study was to determine the effects of pairing a vascular occlusion training protocol with a bout of cardiovascular training on substrate utilization and caloric expenditure in healthy adults. Methods: 5 healthy adults were recruited to report to the lab one day a week for the duration of two hours for four consecutive weeks. During the first session informed consent was collected, a VO2max test was performed, and a familiarization session with vascular occlusion training was conducted. The next three sessions were randomized for each subject but consisted of the following three protocols. During Protocol A …
