Differential contribution of elbow flexion and knee extension on vascular and hemodynamic parameters and arterial stiffness indices after acute strength exercise in young adults

Abstract Background Different types of exercise, performed acutely or chronically, have different repercussions on central hemodynamics, arterial stiffness, and cardiac function. In this study, we aim to compare the effects of acute elbow flexion (EFlex) and knee extension (KExt) exercises on vascul...
