$59.99   $20 – Blood Flow Restriction (BFR)-An Emerging Breakthrough in Rehab Care – Michael Lau

Learn about the greatest innovation for rehab providers in the 21st century. Discover how blood flow restriction training bio-hacks the body to achieve considerable increases in muscle size and strength while exercising with very light loads.

1. Investigate the evidence supporting blood flow restriction training
2. Discuss the populations with most to benefit from BFR 
3. Demonstrate safe and effective placement of BFR cuffs

Evidence Supporting Blood Flow Restriction Training 

• Origins 
• Research trends 
• Latest meta analyses 

Populations who benefit the most from BFR 

• Post-op, painful/load compromised, athletic endurance athletes 
• Validated with scientific evidence 
• Uses across sports medicine continuum 

How Blood Flow Restriction Training Works 

• Muscle cell physiology
  • Metabolic pathways 
  • Hypertrophy/strength timelines 
  • Energy systems 
  • Mechanical vs metabolic stimulus 
  • Force-velocity relationship 
  • Muscle fiber recruitment 

Local skeletal muscle adaptions 

• Cell swelling 
• Metabolite induced fatigue 
• Satellite cell proliferation 
• Hypoxia 
• Bone growth 

Systematic adaptions 

• Cardiovascular system regulation 
• Pressor reflex 
• VO2max 
• VEGF 
• Soft tissue repair 
• Tendon repair 
• Muscle damage 
• Reduced pain 

Indications and Contraindications of BFRT 

• Relative vs absolute contraindications 
• Thrombus and tPA 

Placement of BFR Cuffs 

• Tourniquet and Doppler application 
• Avoidable tourniquet risks 
• Importance of LOP assessment
