Blood Flow Restriction Cuffs are a game-changer in the world of rehabilitation and athletic training.
These cuffs, also commonly called "BFR Bands," can help you increase muscle strength, muscle size, and muscle endurance with even low loads. These benefits make BFR cuffs an ideal therapy for rehabilitation, performance, and everyday training.
BFR training was initially developed in the 1960s in Japan and is known as KAATSU training. It involves the application of a pneumatic cuff (tourniquet) proximally to the muscle that is being trained. Applied to either the upper or lower limb, the cuff is inflated to a specific pressure to obtain partial arterial and complete venous occlusion. Then the patient is asked to perform resistance exercises at a low intensity of 20-30% of 1 repetition max (1RM), with high repetitions per set (15-30) and short rest intervals between sets (30 seconds)
