Brief Summary   This randomized controlled trial investigates the impact of Blood Flow Restriction Training (BFRT) on upper limb functional performance in recreational badminton players. Conducted over six weeks, the study aims to determine whether BFRT can improve strength, handgrip, muscle girth, and smash stroke accuracy compared to conventional low-resistance training. Participants are divided into an experimental group undergoing BFRT and a control group following standard training protocols. The research addresses the limited literature on BFRT’s effectiveness in this population, aiming to develop evidence-based training strategies to enhance badminton performance.
