Blood-flow restriction

I have also been thinking about buying a pair of BFR Bands !
 
The Biggest that my legs have ever been was when I started every session with a 100 rep set of occluded leg press.
 
I definitely didn't maintain it all. They were 26's at the time and are now pushing to get 25.

Any of it able to maintain? I hear about people hitting a certain body part everyday and it grows but as soon as they stop it goes back to its former size. Wonder if its the same thing with this
 
BFR Brand is the one I was looking at.

I think that it is more a matter of increasing mitochondrial density. Sry I meant to type capillary density.

I tried the BFR before and I couldn't seem to get them tight enough on my arm, plus they pinched the skin. Just use knee wraps, cheaper and more effective IMO.

Thanks for saving me money !!
 
Lee priest had a intereview where he said there pointless, he said there's a reason why you don't see pros using them and the ones who have tried end up going back to normal training.
