Summary
This trial will test if biking with special bands that restrict blood flow can help healthy adults get stronger and fitter faster. Participants will ride a bike with these bands on their thighs for a short period and do additional shoulder exercises. The study aims to see if this method improves leg strength, shoulder strength, and overall fitness. This type of training has been shown to enhance muscular strength in various groups, including older adults and injured athletes.

Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: BFR cyclingExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
This group will perform cycling with BFR applied bilaterally at 80% LOP for 10 min and cycling at 40% HRR. Next they will perform 3x15 of the scaption and sidelying external rotation exercises. These will initially be performed at 30% 1RM; every 2 weeks load increased by 1lbs.
Group II: Cycling without BFRActive Control1 Intervention
This group will perform cycling and the same shoulder exercises using the same training parameters; however, BFR will not be applied.
