Effects of physical training on the calf and thigh blood flows.
Blood flows of the calf and thigh at rest and after submaximal and maximal exercise were determined by the venous occlusion method in 6 healthy subjects before and after physical training for 5 weeks. It was found that the magnitude of the flow after training was significantly (p less than 0.05) decreased when measured immediately after submaximal exercise, while there were no significant differences found with respect to both calf and thigh blood flows measured immediately after maximal exercise before and after training.
