The post Mobility Combo For The Spine and Legs #shorts appeared first on jitseasy.

In this video, I demonstrate using the SAGA BFR Cuffs with minimal equipment…in this case just one resistance band. The BFR cuffs fatigue the muscles at a much faster rate and have been shown help increase muscle size and strength.

The reps and sets for each exercise are as follows:

Set 1: 30 reps, Sets 2-4: 15 reps each, 30 second to 1 minute break between sets.

If you’re interested in a more in-depth video focusing on how BFR works and the research behind the cuffs, then check out this video: “How To Increase Strength and Build Muscle Using Light Weights (With #BFR)” https://youtu.be/E4-JO2sm2_w

The BFR cuffs made by https://saga.fitness/ are the ones that I recommend.
