Want to build muscle and avoid injury at all costs? Blood flow restriction (BFR) training is a powerful, yet low-impact method that helps build strength, muscle, and bone density without the risks associated with heavy lifting.
Professional trainer and former athlete Ashley Selman joins us to explain how this tool is especially beneficial for women over 40, helping to combat muscle loss and maintain independence. She dives into real-world examples, including how BFR helped her regain strength after hip surgery, and why it's quickly becoming her go-to training tool for clients. Listeners will gain practical strategies for incorporating BFR into their routines to achieve better results with less stress on the body.
