106: Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) Training... for Injury Recovery?
About this episode
In this special episode of the Low Carb Hustle I talk a bit about a very fringe idea and way of recovering from injury.
I recorded this episode after a client of mine had a hip replacement and couldn't do any lower body or core training. I helped him work around that by focusing on his arms 4x per week and creating a huge cascade of Human Growth Hormone (HGH) and IGF-1 to help promote healing and recovery.
Now this idea has been around since the 70s, and is making a pretty big splash in the bodybuilding world as a way of growing muscle faster, especially if you don't want to lift a ton of weight - BUT not many people are using it how I describe here
If you've ever been sidelined with an injury, been down with an illness, you KNOW has debilitating that can be for your progress or at least your consistency - it's always harder to get BACK ON after we fall off.
But what if I told you that you could keep your progress, get short 5-10 minute workouts, and actually heal faster...all at the same time?
You're gonna want to check this out.
