– Blood flow restriction (BFR) training was developed by Dr. Yoshiaki Sato in Japan in the mid-‘60s, where it’s known as KAATSU training. BFR involves partially restricting arterial inflow and modifying venous outflow while working the muscles of the limbs
– BFR allows you to significantly enhance strength and muscle mass using as little as zero to 30% of your single-rep max weight
– When using BFR, you’re essentially tricking your body into believing that it’s lifting a weight far heavier than you actually are. As a result, you’re able to get the benefits of heavy lifting with none of the damage
BFR training may be an ideal muscle-strengthening strategy for most people, but especially for the elderly, the injured and the untrained

– During BFR training, the slow twitch Type I muscle fibers become highly fatigued, necessitating the recruitment of fast twitch Type II muscle fibers as the exercise progresses. This explains how BFR training can deliver results similar to or better than conventional weight training, despite the use of light weight
