Joining us today is Dr. Mario Novo, of The BFR Pros. In this episode Ben and Mario dive into all things BFR, aka ‘blood flow restriction’. They take a deep look into what is going on when someone restricts their blow flow, the negative responses from BFR training, is this novel stimulus for the average person & MORE. He opens up about The BFR Pros and the ground breaking research they are doing. Find out why their mission is to provide the highest level of education and tools for Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) Training!

0:00.0 | mechanistically, we're better understanding where things are driving us now. |
0:05.0 | And I think the larger picture at this point with BFR is not that does it work. |
0:10.4 | That's pretty well established. It works. |
0:13.0 | It's more so who are the populations that would largely benefit from this. Hey, what's up, ladies gents, B-pack here, muscle intelligence podcast. Dr. Mario |
0:48.8 | Novo is going to teach us everything we need to know about BFR. What's BFR? Blood flow restriction training. |
0:56.6 | And what the implications are, how it works, should you be doing it? Is it safe? What is blood flow |
1:01.1 | restriction? It's literally taking a tourniquet and tying around your limb, whether it be your arm, |
1:07.3 | your leg, and blocking blood flow to subject your body to a different |
1:12.0 | type of stimulus. |
1:13.7 | So what's a different stimulus? |
1:14.9 | Well, you're literally blocking blood flow, thereby you're creating an oxygen deficit, |
1:18.6 | and your body creates a different response as though it was training in a hypoxic state. |
1:23.9 | So very, very interesting. |
1:25.4 | Dr. Novo is an absolute wealth of information when it comes to the research and the protocols. |
1:30.8 | And this is really interesting stuff. |
1:32.8 | So you may have heard me talk with Dr. Jeremy Lennoxi on this. |
1:36.0 | And this is, you know, 10 times the amount of information I found that we got with Dr. |
1:40.0 | Lennox. |
1:40.8 | And as far as the applicable information, Dr. Novo is extremely, extremely generous with |
1:46.0 | telling us how to do it, what to do, and all the potential implications. So if you're someone who works |
1:50.7 | out, I highly suggest you listen to this because you're going to want to do some blood flow |
1:55.2 | restriction after this podcast and you're going to want to do it safely. So Dr. Novo teaches us all |
