BFR Pro Occlusion Bands

Blood Flow Restriction Bands for Arms, Legs or Glutes - Gain Muscle Without Heavy Weight Lifting

Overview

Blood Flow Restriction Training

  • EXTRA WIDE BANDS: Our new PRO BFR Bands ® are 2 inches wide and are designed to offer superb restriction of blood flow through the working limb to the targeted muscles. These Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) bands reduce oxygen supply to the muscles in order to pre-fatigue slow twitch muscle fibers and diminish their response to workout loads, but to enable fast twitch muscle fibers to respond quickly to exercise training loads, resulting in faster lean muscle growth.
  • INCREASED FACTORS FOR MUSCLE GROWTH: Studies show BFR training can increase muscle protein synthesis, NOS-1 expression and mTOR signaling, resulting in increased muscle growth. The studies also show BFR training can boost muscle growth and enhance potential for muscle gain by reducing Myostatin concentrations.
  • QUICKER LEAN MUSCLES AND SUPERB TONE WITHOUT LIFTING HEAVY WEIGHTS: The Occlusion Training Bands ® induce hypertrophy at very low loads (usually 10-30% of a 1RM). When applied to working limbs and paired with loads of 10-30% of a 1RM (lots of reps and very low rest until fatigue sets in), the results achieved are typically similar to those achieved with 80% 1RMs. Indeed, the Ischemic bands give lean muscles and amazing tone quickly and without heavy weight lifting.
  • EXTRA-STRONG AND SUPER-COMFORTABLE BFR BANDS: Furnished with an extra strong elastic strap and a quick-release cam buckle, the PRO BFR training bands are easy to strap up, effortless to release as soon as the exercise is completed, and exceptionally comfortable on the working limb. Each BFR Bands ® order comes with 2 bands to allow you to exercise both legs or both arms at the same time.
  • Furnished with a strong, elastic nylon strap (2 inches wide) and a quick-release cam buckle, the Pro BFR training bands are easy to strap up, effortless to release as soon as the exercise is completed, and exceptionally comfortable on the working limb. Each BFR Bands’ order comes with 2 bands to allow you to exercise both legs or both arms at the same time.

Why We Like It

Occlusion Training Bands

BFR Bands is a health and fitness company that integrates cutting edge neuroscience into their products. This brain-based approach is what makes BFR Bands’ products so effective.

Increased Type II Fiber Activation

The Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) bands reduce oxygen supply to the muscles in order to pre-fatigue slow twitch muscle fibers and diminish their response to workout loads, but to enable fast twitch muscle fibers to respond quickly to exercise training loads, resulting in faster lean muscle growth.

Increased Growth Factors

By only slowing venous blood flow out of the limbs, BFR disrupts the body’s homeostasis – effectively increasing muscle protein synthesis, NOS-1 expression and mTOR signaling, resulting in increased muscle growth. The bands also boost muscle growth and enhance potential for muscle gain by reducing Myostatin concentrations.

Better ‘Mapping’

Your brain’s primary job is safety and prediction before performance. The BFR Bands may enhance this by activating mechanoreceptors (stretch), baroreceptors (pressure), and chemoreceptors (from blood chemistry changes) in the limbs that enhance your brain’s ‘map’ of where your body is relative to space. With this increased awareness, your brain’s threat level goes down which means strength and performance goes up.
