Fit Cuffs® is One-Size-Fits-All as the state-of-the-art Occlusion Training / Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) Training device from Denmark
Our product selection is designed for Effective, Safe & Convenient BFR with the scope of optimal results from Prehab to Rehab Performance & Maintenance engineered with the highest possible quality standards!
The contoured shaped Leg Cuff V3 has an adjustable cone fit
The Leg Cuff V3 has a wide velcro attachment area that allows for a custom contoured fit which is specifically designed for occlusion training e.g. Blood Flow Restriction. This variable-contour cuff can be adjusted to the shape of the thigh, providing a personalized fit for optimized pressure distribution during exercise. By simply changing the placement of the velcro strap you achieve a personal fit that will accommodate any thigh shape, from most cone to slim and straight thighs and as always with our products One-Size-Fits-All: Width: 10cm / 4 Inch – Leg Size: 45-85cm / 17.7-33.5 Inch). Additionally, it works perfectly in conjunction with the Bluetooth Device for assessment of Limb Occlusion Pressure (LOP) and the “Calculate Pressure” module at training.fitcuffs.com.
Velcro strap placement for cone / tapered and straight thighs
The Arm Cuff V3 is a complete redesign for swift attachment
Developed exclusively for Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) Training engineered with the scope of convenience by means of faster attachment time. To achieve this, we adopted a reverse velcro design, which makes single hand attachment and adjustments more intuitive. As always with our product selection, this Arm Cuff is designed as One-Size-Fits-All, specified as upper arm circumference from 20-50cm (7.9-20 Inch), width: 7cm / 2.7 Inch. Additionally, it works perfectly in conjunction with the Bluetooth Device for assessment of Limb Occlusion Pressure (LOP) and the “Calculate Pressure” module at training.fitcuffs.com.
This is primary engineered for the healthcare professional, whether you are a personal trainer, strength coach, or medical provider, this Device was built with your needs in mind. The Bluetooth Device works by your phone via standard Bluetooth tech, for swift assessment of Limb Occlusion Pressure (LOP) aka Arterial Occlusion Pressure (AOP). This device is a convenient alternative to Handheld Dopplers or Oximeters, which is relevant for safe and effective application of Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) Training. The Device has been tested by externally experts at Lebanese University Faculty of Public Health & Gazi University Faculty of Sports Sciences and shows high validity and reliability compared to Handheld Dopplers. It only takes 30-120 seconds to measure upper and lower body LOP, respectively, as a convenient alternative to other methods.
Blood Flow Restriction & Fit Cuffs® Has Several Benefits ⇩
From Prehab to Rehab Performance & Maintenance – Read more
Prehab ➨
Ease joint pain and even treat it by building strength and muscle mass, when conventional strength training is not an option. This is especially relevant for everyone that is to undergo surgery or even in some cases in order to avoid surgery!
Rehab ➨
Reduce “Time Loss” and accelerate “Return to Sport”. Get back to your favorite activities much sooner than expected compared to conventional rehab modalities. While injured or post-surgical, BFR allows individuals to become stronger and more resilient at a rapid rate. BFR enables an injured athlete to get back to play in only a fraction of the expected time as you can regain strength, muscle mass, aerobic and anaerobic fitness while injured!
Performance ➨
Improve sprint speed, aerobic and anaerobic capacity which is imperative for the uninjured athlete as a relevant add-on to conventional exercise and athletic training!
Maintenance
Help elderly or athletes to sustain their daily activities and prevent in-season injury such as overuse joint pain. BFR is the perfect tool when training and matches inhibit the athlete’s ability to lift heavy in the gym, wherever the goal is to sustain VO2max, muscle mass or strength!
Calculate Pressure (mmHg)
This Module will calculate the recommended restriction pressure (mmHg) as an alternative to setting the pressure relative to Limb Occlusion Pressure (LOP) for You to experience effective, safe & convenient BFR
Limb Occlusion Pressure (LOP)
As an alternative to the Calculate Pressure Module this enables You to calculate the pressure (mmHg) as a percentage of Your assessed LOP
Fitness Calculators
1. Bike Tests (Aerobic Fitness): Sub-maximal and all-out Bike Tests to estimate VO2 Max, Fitness Level and % of Watt Max.
2. One Rep Max (% of 1RM): Estimate your 1RM and calculate a submaximal load

Ischemic Pre-Post Conditioning
Short passive intervals with partial or total Limb Occlusion Pressure (90-100% LOP).
1. to attenuate loss of muscle mass when partially bedridden after surgery with load bearing restrictions.
2. Post Exercise for faster restitution.
3. Ischmemic Pre-Conditioning (IPC) for improved performance.
Low Intensity Cardiovascular Exercise
Performed continuously or as intervals with your preferred cardio vascular exercise.
Implications: In extension of 1st application simple cycling or walking when weight bearing activities are appropriate. By applying this modality at early rehab stages, You can actually improve your muscle mass, strength and aerobic function relative to the concurrent physical condition.
Low Intensity Resistance Training
Augment your low-load training by BFR with less joint stress. Implications: Primarily as a bridge towards conventional resistance training during rehab. But also applicable for the average gym rat who would like to increase or maintain strength with less load, which is especially relevant for those who wants to build or maintain muscle mass as a supplement to high-load resistance training programs.
Return To Sport & Performance
By utilizing BFR in Your sports specific activity You can improve athleticism and sports performance e.g. sprint speed, aerobic and anaerobic condition with less intensity compared to conventional performance training. Otherwise applied as common interval training with cuff deflation in the inter-set rest periods.
Why You Should Choose Fit Cuffs® – Read More
Our aim is to continuously innovate the product selection for effective, safe and convenient Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) Training. The scope being clinical practice as primarily physical therapists but also strength and conditioning coaches.
We find that occlusion training or BFR Training is the most important discovery for decades in the world of strength & conditioning and importantly musculoskeletal rehabilitation.
That is why our goal is to design and evolve a BFR device, that is equally effective, safe and convenient to use for all people regardless of profession or limb size. Check this page to see additional product specifications before choosing Fit Cuffs.
