Blood Flow Restriction Training: Light Weights, More Muscle?
Today I sit down with Dr. Mike DeBord, the founder of B3 Sciences, to talk about blood flow restriction training. Blood flow restriction training (BFR) employs bands that restrict (but not stop) blood flow to the arms and legs. Several clinical studies appear to show BFR training -with LIGHT WEIGHTS - can not only improve muscle strength and hypertrophy but also raise growth hormone too.
About Me
I have an MS in exercise science and a BS in biology & chemistry. I’ve been helping people understand dietary supplements for over 20 years using an evidence-based approach and have written several books including Rhabdo, the first book about exercise-induced rhabdomyolysis.
Order My Rhabdo Book
Rhabdomyolysis is a painful and serious side effect of exercise that you need to know about. Education is the best defense. I've been teaching about rhabdo for over 10 years. If you are in the US, you can order it directly from me.
