Abstract
The purpose of study was the comparison of hormonal responses to resistance training with and without blood flow restriction. 14 girl students took part in a crossover design study. The subjects in 3 successive weeks randomly assigned in 3 states: control (Con), traditional strength training (TST) and strength training with blood flow restriction (STR). Exercise was included leg extension, leg press and leg hack 4 sets. Blood sample was taken before, immediately, and 0.5 hour after exercise. Data were analyzed using repeated measures analysis of variance. The test significance level was taken as p
