Blood flow restriction training (BFR) has become increasingly popular in recent years. It consists of temporary and partial restriction of blood flow to the limb that is being trained. 

Scientific research shows that training with BFR bands results in high engagement of motor units while using relatively low weight. You can achieve the same result as when training on high weights.

This training is useful during injuries or rehabilitation time, when we cannot train with full load, but we want to continue to achieve results.

Occlusion training is a great diversion to normal strength training and a gives our muscles the new stimulus. 

Main benefits of BFR bands for legs occlusion training: 

• Increased Muscle Hypertrophy - Studies show that training with blood flow restriction can increase muscle protein synthesis and mTOR signaling, resulting in increased muscle growth.
• The same effects with lighter weights - BFR bands are ideal for injuries and trauma when we cannot train with heavy weights. BFR Bands induce hypertrophy by training at 10-30% RM (maximum weight) and the effects are similar to training at 80% RM. Smaller weights giving the same effects are less stress on the joints and nervous system.
• Optimal Dimensions - Studies have shown that wider BFR bands are better because they don't carry the risk of tissue damage and bruising like regular rubber bands or narrow bands do. Our bands are 5 cm wide, making them ideal for occlusion training. The adjustment of this model allows you to set the circumference of up to 86 cm, which allows for leg occlusion training even for very massive athletes.
• Easy to use and comfortable - our occlusion bands feature a quick release plastic snap closure, so you can easily put them on and take them off between series or exercises. No need to tie knots and waste time. Each set includes 2 bands so that you can exercise both limbs at the same time.
• Satisfaction guaranteed - we guarantee the highest quality. If the bands do not meet your expectations, you are entitled to your money back.

The muscle parts that can be trained using occlusion training with BFR bands are the muscles of the upper-body and legs muscles:

• Biceps
• Shoulders
• Calves
• Quadriceps, biceps femoris
