BLOOD FLOW RESTRICTION TRAINING FOR FITNESS PROFESSIONALS

Course Description: Blood Flow Restriction Training for Fitness Professionals

Introduction to Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) Training:

Blood Flow Restriction Training is an innovative exercise technique that enhances muscle strength and hypertrophy through the strategic application of bands or cuffs.
