In display are a bunch of low practical BFR exercises for the biceps and triceps and muscles, which is particularly relevant for bodybuilders of any level.

But for your own expense, be aware, as this video is not for the virginals, as some skin and partial nudity may occur.😉 But I can insure you, for the indefinite Viking i.e. Oliver Price, this is definitely not the first time showing off some impressive physique.

Joking aside, this is actually a great way to display the vascularization and decolorization that is associated with muscle contractions combined with appropriate partial restriction of blood flow i.e. 40-80% LOP. That is when arterial inflow is partially restricted and venous outflow is completely restricted.

Though, for some people it may seem to extreme, but this is actually a common phenomenon in people with low body fat.

In the original Kaatsu protocol for what they now label as blood flow moderation, this is actually a part of their direct indicators of a beneficial BFR stimuli. On the other hand, if you or your client turn pale on the restricted limbs, this is a sign of near or complete occlusion, which is of course contra indicated and should be avoided during BFR training.

Regarding this ingenious home training setup, you can see how some water bottles and a broom can be turned into a dumbbell and a barbel, respectively.

For people who are used to conventional resistance training, aim for 30 reps followed by at least 3 sets of 15-20 reps and progress by doing at least the last set to failure and/or shorter inter-set rest periods (30-60 seconds).

So, when the usual dumbbell rack is not an option and the relative load cannot be identified, this is a convenient way to progress you low practical BFR Training.

Considering 12 x 1.5 kg water bottles used in the last exercise and as a general recommendation, exercises with a relative load above 50% 1RM should be applied without BFR for optimal effectiveness.
