Blood Flow Restriction is a safe and effective training methodology that can help individual’s build muscle and increase strength, even while training with little or no resistance.
It involves placing an AirBand around the limb during exercise to restrict the blood flow from the vein and working muscle.
This causes a localized hypoxic ( reduction of oxygen ) environment in the muscle, leading to faster muscle fatigue. That results in a multitude of beneficial physiological adaptations.
Research has shown when combined with appropriate training programs, blood flow restriction can:
+ Improve Muscle Strength
+ Enhance Aerobic Capacity
+ Increase Muscle Hypertrophy
