Primary purpose: OTHER

Brief summary: This study is randomized and single-blinded. Ethical approval is taken from the ethical committee of riphah international university, Lahore. Participants who meet the inclusion criteria will be enrolled in Groups A \& B through the sealed envelop method by the Non-Probability Convenient random sampling technique. Group A will perform traditional High-intensity resistance training without Blood Flow Restriction training after ACL Reconstruction Surgery. Group B will perform traditional High-intensity Resistance training with Blood Flow Restriction training after ACL Reconstruction Surgery.

Detailed description: The objective of the study is to determine the effects of high-intensity resistance training with and without blood flow restriction on quadriceps strength, power, and agility after ACL reconstruction among volleyball players. This study is randomized and single-blinded. Ethical approval is taken from the ethical committee of riphah international university, Lahore. Participants who meet the inclusion criteria will be enrolled in Groups A \& B through the sealed envelop method by the Non-Probability Convenient random sampling technique. Group A will perform traditional High-intensity resistance training without Blood Flow Restriction training after ACL Reconstruction Surgery. Group B will perform traditional High-intensity Resistance training with Blood Flow Restriction training after ACL Reconstruction Surgery. The outcome measures will be assessed by hand held dynamometer.1-RM test, Illinois Agility Test, and Vertical jump test.

The data will be analyzed by SPSS,version 25.Statistical siginificance is P= 0.05.
