Welcome to today's episode,
With most of BFR strength training focuses on low-load lifting (20-30% RM), where does this leave the addition of BFR strength training for strength/power athletes. Typically (non-BFR) loads of >60% of 1RM are required to improve strength and power. So today's article looks at the concept of high-load BFR strength training.
”Short Term Blood Flow Restriction, Increases Power Output, and Bar Velocity during the Bench Press”, and this was published in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, and the primary author is Michael Wilks.
The podcast not only reviews the article, but I've also done a small study of my own. I add some of my own findings and thoughts on how you can use this in a training program.
This will be the last podcast for the year. Thanks for all of your support throughout the year. I appreciate you all.
