it works pretty good for those of us who don't have a lot of gym equipment available. can use lower and more manageable weight at home for working legs. squatting with 70 lbs is a LOT safer without a rack or a spot at home. just no way to put up 200+ lbs for squats in that situation. I'm really digging it!!!
Yes and No... It can work so good as you can adjust the pressure just with a Strap but the comfort to add or reduce the pressure just with the air system around the cuff in a precise way can be better to get sure the best results. On TH-cam are some Videos with compare other cheaper systems from other companies
The is not "Yes and No". This is very different than compression gear. Compression gear is meant to give the body a boost in recovery/avoid blood clots by helping the lymphatic system. BFR, as in the name, restricts blood flow! There is zero similarity to the mechanisms at work here, and people with zero understanding should NOT be answering you on this question
Ask yourself this, would ronnie coleman have been any bigger if he discovered Blood Flow restrction back in his day? Or would this help him just work with slightly lighter weights?
I'm very skeptical of this and I don't know if there's a good way for the avg man to do this unless it's controlled and monitored by a machine. My guess would be guys having heart attacks if millions of people start doing this in the gym. Anyone got thoughts on that last part?
Sounds like the science is not clear. Lot of messing around and in most videos people just like the pump it gives them straight after as a posed to the longer term results.
question number one answer is NO - There is no indication that is superior to normal training...If you are stuck on a table and cannot perform regular exercise (see where it was developed - for amputees) ok, I see it for post op - but even the "expert" we watched on your cast did not provide anything but the possibility of promise...not enough to implement across the board...
Do you consider all the msk injuries for which BFR helps for muscle mass and strength? From ankle sprains to muscle injuries and low back pain, BFR training gives you more chance to build strength and muscle, without compromise, and by reducing pain in the exercising limbs.
I'm skeptical that this is useful for anyone other than those on steroids. Once you have reached your potential you aren't going to gain much size or strength. Strength is also a function of muccle attachment points and length of femur, humerous etc (leverage). Your body restricts how much mass you can have, if it was simply about increasing load every guys would add 1lb a week to his bench and become like Ronnie Coleman or Arnold in a few months.

My PT has me doing this!
If you want more lactate in your muscles do more reps, don't cut off your circulation.
What do you think of BFF training for a deload week?

Are you afraid of learning something new?
