Not just tying a rope around your leg. A recent knee injury has me down and out for a while. But thanks to having a cutting edge therapist we've been playing around with BFR. Results so far have been amazing. I've been doing PT 3x a week for 3 weeks with BFR using only my own body weight consisting 30 leg lifts 30sec break, 15 with a 30 sec break, 15 more then loosen the cuff for 5 min. Then repeat with leg curls.
Results: a gain of 9 cm on my injured leg on the thigh 6 inches above the knee. Pretty amazing. This allows optimal hypertrophy for the muscle to be reduced to 35% instead of 85% of a persons ORM. Invented by the military, I would highly recommend this for anyone looking to recover from a injury that has resulted in significant muscle loss.
Cheers.
