BFR BANDS Blood Flow Restriction Bands, Exercise Straps for Occlusion Training, Gym Workout & Weight Lifting, Resistance Bands Help Increase Muscle Mass in Women & Men
Symmetry Training: Our PRO X BFR bands for women and men include a pressure-tracking system to make sure you're giving equal training to both arms.
Muscle Growth: Our blood restriction workout bands induce hypertrophy at very low loads (10-30% of a 1RM) and can increase muscle protein synthesis, resulting in increased muscle growth.
Lean & Tone: Designed to offer the most targeted blood flow restriction for maximum muscle gain, our PRO X occlusion training bands reduce oxygen supply to the muscles to slow twitch muscle fibers and diminish their response to workout loads for faster muscle gain.
Extra Comfortable: Don't get pinched by low-quality blood flow restriction training bands.
These BFR bands for men and women make sure you stay at peak comfort while achieving your peak pump.

Benefits of BFR Training

Increased Type II Fiber ActivationThe 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 FactorsBy 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. |
