If you’ve been at the gym recently and notice someone weightlifting with bands wrapped around their biceps, they are likely trying out a new training regimen called Blood Flow Restriction Training, or BFR.

This form of training, also known as occlusion training, involves placing a wrap, band, or cuff around the leg or arm while exercising.
