Should Climbers do Blood Flow Restriction Training? | BFR Research Review
Have we gone too far with our skits yet? Or not even close?! Comment below to let us know ;)
This week's video: Should Climbers do Blood Flow Restriction Training? | BFR Research Review
We focus on the intriguing rehab and training tool, Blood Flow Restriction (BFR).
How do you train or prevent strength loss when you’re injured? How do you gain strength while also being able to put in quality sessions on your project?
The answers to those questions often depend on who you ask. But there’s one technique that some say is the solution to all three, even though it might not sound very enticing, and that is: blood flow restriction (BFR).
BFR training has actually been around for quite a while, with research going back to the 90s as a potential rehab and training tool. And I’ve seen it discussed in climbing circles somewhat recently, probably for good reason: some advocates claim it’s superior to traditional resistance training.
But is that actually true? To find out, we’re going to have to assess the following:
Is the research good?
Is BFR effective for rehab?
Is BFR effective for strength and hypertrophy training?
Are there any safety concerns?
Is it worthwhile for climbers?
As always, we’ll look to science for answers.
