Interventions
BFR cuffs placed at the proximal thigh, just inferior to the greater trochanter. Inflation time not to exceed 20 minutes. One BFR session per treatment. BFR exercise dosage: 4 sets of the following repetitions 30, 15, 15, 15, 30 second rest between sets, 1 min rest between exercises. Progress exercise if pain \<2/10 on VAS and RPE \<5 on 0-10 scale. (Heerey et al), and no break down in form.
The schedule, type of exercises, repetition ranges, and other physical therapy interventions will be the same as the BFR experimental group - however a non-occlusive pressure will be applied with the cuff in the control group.
