REDUCE INJURY

BFR plus Low Intensity (LI using approximately 25% of normal resistance or 1RM) produces systemic results nearly identical to HIITs (High Intensity Interval Training) and physiological results similar to heavy lifting.

​

High Intensity and Heavy Lifting result in profound fatigue. When fatiqued, the body has the propensity to fall "out of form" and when it does, injury can result.

Low Intensity - 25% or 1RM

It is highly likely that unless you are a highly trained athlete you really do not know what your One-Rep-Max (1RM) really is and that is ok.

​

For the purposes of BFR training, lets start by using 25% to 30% of what you normally lift. For example, if you normally do a bicep curl with 40 lbs, start by using just 7.5 lbs to 10 lbs during your workout using the BFR straps. 

​

Believe us, doing the 30 - 15 - 15 - 15 reps for bicep curls, you will experience fatigue. 

​

What is fatigue? We expect that during the last set of 15 reps, somewhere between rep 1 and rep 15, you will feel like you cannot do another curl! However, if you feel that that around rep 7 or 8, next time you workout you should either 1) loosen you BFR bands a little or 2) use less resistance.

​

Similarily, if you complete the full set of 15 reps without feeling fatigue, next time tighten your straps or add a little weight. It is that easy!
