Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) training is a technique that involves occluding the blood flow and when combined with low-intensity exercise, is able to mimic the effects of high-intensity training. By applying a cuff to the top portion of the limb, a hypoxic environment occurs resulting in physiological adaptations to muscle similar to what would occur during high-intensity training.

The reduced oxygen delivery to the working muscle leads to a build-up of metabolic accumulation in the muscle. Research suggests that this build-up is what accelerates the activation of type II muscle fibres - these are the ones that do the most to promote an increase in muscle size and strength. 

The decrease in available oxygen also causes the working muscle to fatigue faster, meaning you can still achieve a high level of muscle activation – using light loads.

Muscle size and strength results with blood flow restriction training occurs significantly faster and are often greater than those achieved with traditional resistance training. Noticeable results occur within 2-3 weeks.

Multiple research papers have been published validating blood flow restriction trainings ability to increase muscle strength, size, and more. Studies have confirmed the use of blood flow restriction bands with low-intensity exercise to be as effective, if not more effective than training with high-loads.

Blood flow restriction training has a host of benefits and when used correctly, results can be seen in as little as two weeks.  If you’re looking to maximise your strength or muscle adaptations, consider BFR workouts as one strong solution to help you achieve your goals.

Blood flow restriction training can be used as part of any strength or hypertrophy training program, but here a few example of how blood flow restriction training can be applied.

- As a BFR finisher or as part of a Superset
- To increase training volume and frequency
- During active recovery and deloading
- For at home workouts or whilst travelling

Blood flow restriction involves placing blood flow restriction bands around your limb during exercise to restrict blood flow from the working muscle. The reduced oxygen flow to the working muscle causes it to fatigue and work harder, resulting in a cascade of physiological benefits including increasing muscle strength and size.

BFR is the acronym for Blood Flow Restriction also known as Occlusion training or Hypoxi Training. It is a training method that restricts the outward flow of blood from the muscle which causes the muscle to build up metabolites and lactic acid. The lactic acid increases protein synthesis while the metabolites stimulate muscle growth.

Blood Flow Restriction Therapy helps patients make greater strength progress when lifting lighter loads, which reduces the overall stress placed on a recovering limb.

You can use BFR Bands for strength training daily. Although it is not recommended to use them multiple times within the day. With Blood Flow Restriction training you need to maintain a healthy workout routine compared to overtraining.

BFR is a safe and effective way to supplement aerobic, strength training and resistance exercises to increase muscle mass, aerobic capacity and aids in the repair/regrowth of tissues.

The Blood Flow Restriction bands limit oxygen supply to the muscles to fatigue slow-twitch muscle fibers and reduce their response to workout loads. This enables fast-twitch muscle fibers to respond faster to exercise training loads which providers muscle growth.

You should wear BFR Bands at the topmost part of your arm, above your bicep. For your legs you should wear it at the highest part of your upper leg whilst standing.
