Best Answer

the total blood flow is controlled by the number of capillaries that are open at any given moment, so outside the tightening and loosening of those muscles ... very little.

The veins become slightly distended and the arteries empty a bit quicker.

At rest about 20% of the capillaries are open at any given time.

it's not the job of the vessels to increase or decrease blood flow,

but of the capillary beds.
