I use Smart Cuffs! I'm a cyclist but have been sidelined for over a year with Achilles tendonitis. I've been using them while walking (WAY harder than you'd think!) and with physical therapy. I can't wait until I can cycle again and use BFR with it!

Hi Coach, thanks for the nice video. how many days a week with the BFR do you recommend as a start. I'm an amateur cyclist & do around 150-200 km each week. my FTP is ~ 210. I do have a stationary bike as well without the powermeter but I do have a powermeter on my road bike. Thanks

Coach, thanks for a great video. I can remember back in the day (1970s) athletes from different sports would use ACE wraps around their thighs and calves. These were mainly boxers and martial artists. I believe this practice might extend back to the Ancient Greek gladiators as well. My real question is: Have you tried these on your calves as well? Thanks coach.

Great video, Coach. I'm a track sprint specialist (cycling) my training is more maximal efforts with long recovery periods. Question ; should I use BFR for an entire session (1 hour long) or, limit the use for shorter sessions 20-30mins ?
@Markhypnosis1 Жыл бұрын
From my research, you should only use them for 20 mins max at a time. 1hr is a definite no.

After watching your video and doing extensive research on BFR I have a few questions: 1) It looks like you are only recommending using the BFR as a strength training session replacement during the winter base miles period not as a year round routine, did I understand you correctly? 2) How would you (if at all) add these BFR session to a cyclist routine who is already doing 2x per week full body resistance training and 5 days of cycling (2 high intensity and 3 endurance sessions)? I think adding BFR to this kind of a routine would lead to too much fatigue in the legs which would lower the intensity in the harder sessions. Would you agree or would you say its more beneficial to do BFR Z2 ride instead of squats or deadlifts on resistance days.

I actually recommend using them for the benefits to cardiovascular network. This suits me at various periods when I can’t exercise normally. Sounds like you have a good structure and volume so I would focus on sticking with your existing plan 👍

Ok I am seriously considering getting this BFR system. I have a quick question, Coach. After 20-30 minutes of using it can I still continue to ride on my trainer is I take the cuffs off or is it too taxing? ? Thanks Coach. Hope you are well!

Hey coach, I'm looking for another video on BFR. I've read every paper on BFR and aerobic fitness I could find and came to no hard conclusions. The Korean basketball player study comes up with an 11% improvement in VO2max for just walk training (5x3min two times per day). I've experimented with 5, 10, 20 minute z2 intervals. I've done 10 minute z3 intervals. Fatigue and DOMS has been minimal. I could do a lot more. I'm just wondering what is going to be the most effective dose. Thanks!

And how many session per week r the used . And do the Pro Riders use them . What l was thinking of doing this winter in Australia was 3 Gym sessions a week with 2 Pilate reformer sessions a week . 3) sessions 2 increase my power out put. 4-6 reps 2) sessions Pilates 2 keep the muscles long & flexible. Say 20 reps And ×3 Riding sessions . 2 @ 50ks 1 @ 100ks Enjoy what u have 2 share . Cheers .

I'm surprised your threshold hrt is 162 as I thought at 51 you'd be 169. Is that what you get on a ramp test? It's interesting this oxygen deficit training.
@BulletproofCycling2 жыл бұрын
Hey Glen - thanks for comment. Not sure how you get 169? There is no formulae for threshold HR - if you use formulae like 220-age = MHR and then 92% of MHR to get threshold you have to note that it has lots of flaws. I have gained mine from lab tests and plenty of tests. I have seen my MHR drop from 188 in my prime to around 177 now. This is normal. Your MHR is set by your genetics etc but it is not a perquisite for high fitness. I don’t actually use many ramp tests but I have a Kinetic one that I use with mainly slow twitch fibre athletes as fast twitch folks usually get too high a FTP score from them. 👍👍

Occlusion is a very misleading and dangerous term to use. The idea is to dramatically reduce the flow of blood from the muscle and NOT stop it. You should really be using an ultrasound Doppler machine, to measure the correct pressures to use. I’m 55 bit of a gym junky and been using BFR for a few years, as my joints and connective tissues can’t handle heavy weights and I intend training into 80’s. BFR does work.

@icancanoe2 жыл бұрын
It doesn't and shouldn't stop arterial flow. This would be too tight and cause damage. The right pressure inhibits venous return flow. This causes an accumulation of lactic acid, carbon dioxide, and other waste products.
