Blood Flow Restriction Training in Rochester, NY
Blood Flow Restriction Training
Blood Flow Restriction Training, or BFR, utilizes specialized cuffs to partially occlude arterial and venous blood flow to and from muscles, resulting in greater workload and stress to the muscles during rest and/or exercise. This allows us to achieve greater improvements in muscle strength and size with lower intensity exercise at times when higher intensity exercise is not possible due to injury, pain, or recent surgery. BFR can make early-rehabilitation much more effective by minimizing muscle atrophy and detraining. BFR can also be a terrific supplement to an existing training plan.
