The primary aim of this study is to determine the feasibility of 12 weeks of lower body resistance exercise performed with blood flow restriction (BFR) in people with peripheral arterial disease. Resistance exercise with BFR involves placing inflatable cuffs proximal to the exercise limbs in order to manipulate blood flow and enhance the training response. Secondary aim of this study is to evaluate changes in ABPI, muscle size, strength and physical function at mid-and post- intervention.
