Blood Flow Restriction Therapy (BFRT)

Using a compressive cuff on a limb while performing lower level exercises, the body responds chemically and metabolically as though it is experiencing an intense work out.  You can achieve similar gains to a heavy lifting program while moving less weight AND maintain aerobic capacity without running.   

After injury or surgery there are often restrictions in place to avoid further damaging tissue while your body heals.  For example, not putting weight through the healing bone after a recently fractured ankle.  BFRT allows you to avoid muscle atrophy and maintain your fitness level during the healing phases. You don't have to get weak, lose muscle or get out of shape while you are recovering!
