Blood pressure response during blood flow restriction exercise is generally comparable to or lower than high load exercise and returns to baseline within five minutes in healthy individuals.

“compared to the same exercise without it it usually is higher um but it's usually comparable to that if not a little bit lower than high load exercise so i think the the key component of that is of course it's probably going to be higher you're restricting blood flow but how high does it get and how quickly does it return back to baseline so i think that those are kind of two important components now when we've compared it to highlight exercise it's usually pretty similar and it usually comes back down to baseline within five minutes but those are healthy individuals”
