About this study

This randomized controlled trial compares blood flow restriction (BFR) resistance training (leg press and seated knee extension at 30% 1RM) versus BFR cycling (stationary cycling at low resistance) in 60 athletes (aged 18-40 years) diagnosed with patellofemoral pain syndrome. Both interventions are delivered over 8 weeks (3 sessions/week) with a pneumatic cuff set at 80% limb occlusion pressure. Primary outcomes include pain intensity (NPRS), quadriceps strength (handheld dynamometer), and functional ability (Kujala Anterior Knee Pain Scale), assessed at baseline and post-intervention.
