THE PROVEN SCIENCE BEHIND BFRT

Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) has existed for many decades but didn't catch on in America until about 2015. Doctors worldwide use BFR to enhance injury recovery and rehabilitation.

The same science is also highly effective during everyday workouts to strengthen muscles without the use of joint damaging, heavy weights.

MORE EFFICIENT WORKOUTS

LESS TIME - PowerCuffs® push your body to engage your type 2B muscle fibers more quickly and fatigue muscles faster, so your workout time is shorter and your muscle benefit much faster.

LESS WEIGHT - You no longer need 80% of your one rep max. With PowerCuffs® you only need 25%-35% so you will not need as much weight to build the same muscle.

BETTER DESIGN - The unique design of PowerCuffs® allows for a seamless workout flow, giving you rapid ability to adjust while working out so you don’t have to slow down or stop.
