I have seen some people at my gym using those BFR bands for their arm workouts. It looks a bit strange but the research I have seen online suggests it can lead to significant hypertrophy with very light weights.
As someone who travels a lot within Canada and sometimes only has access to hotel gyms with light dumbbells, this seems like it could be a great tool. Have any of you actually tried blood flow restriction training? Is it worth the investment in the bands?
I am curious if the muscle growth is permanent or if it is just a temporary pump from the restriction. Also, is it safe to do on your own without a trainer? I would love to hear some real world feedback on this technique.
