BFR Cuffs: Your New Gym Partner
Think Blood Flow Restriction training is just the latest flash in the pan fitness trend? Think again. Professional athletes have been in on the secret of BFR training for a while. But, until now, the concept hadn’t taken off in the wider consumer fitness product market…
Why?
Simply put, the only products previously available to implement BFR training were completely non-user friendly.
Previously the choices for BFR were bulky, wired and expensive products that required a health practitioner to operate, or the choice of a manual strap which meant a heap of guesswork for the user to determine how much pressure should be applied and how much time should be spent occluded during a workout.
And all of this effort came with no guarantee that what you were doing would actually work.
That was then; this is now: The BFR Cuffs by SAGA have effortlessly solved these problems.

BFR is a BFD
If you’re new to the concept of BFR training (which stands for blood flow restriction), it involves low-intensity exercise while wearing constrictive bands designed to reduce the amount of oxygen supplied to the muscles.
Let’s address the elephant in the weight room: how does blood flow restriction safely and effectively help build muscle?
At first glance, the idea of depriving your muscles of oxygen seems counterproductive. However, restricting the right amount of blood flow can actually provide a huge boost to your workout. By placing a tourniquet around your limb during exercise, you reduce the blood flow to the working muscle. This reduced oxygen flow causes the working muscle to fatigue, and thus, work harder. Blood Flow Restriction can increase muscle size and strength faster than traditional resistance training. Results can become apparent in as little as 2-3 weeks.
