#antitransformationtuesday 🤔 Left was before gym closing, right is 10 weeks later. For the past 10 weeks I primarily did full-body @bfr_bands training in an effort to retain size since I only had access to resistance bands, dumbbells that maxed at 50lbs and bodyweight exercises. The BFR training science proved to be true. I kept my size, and even added a little in my arms with MUCH lighter weight than I am used to lifting. Hypertrophy gains for sure. The down side is that after returning to the gym this week, I am noticably weaker when going back to the heavier weight. I had to drop the weight on every lift by at least 10-15%. And even after that, I could not match my previous reps using the lighter weight. Here are the Pros and Cons of doing only BFR training for the past 10 weeks. Pro - More size with less weight - Shorter workouts - Less chance of injury - Less central nervous system fatigue - Quicker recovery Con - Reduced strength If your only goal is hypertrophy 100%, then this type of training is likely perfect for you. If you want to focus solely on strength (ie. power lifting) then you likely won't want to use BFR at all. If you want to gain size and strength, then go with regular compound lifts and work in some BFR training for isolation work at the end of your workouts. I plan to go with the last plan. 👍🏻 What about you? #bfrtraining #occlusiontraining #ketoing #bodybuilding #gainslife #fitstagram #moremuscle #trainingresults #bfrbands #growmorewithless #fitnessinfo #strengthtraining #hypertrophytraining https://www.instagram.com/p/CArMYL4gict/?igshid=13dogh3gq187j

5 a.m. lifts require a lot of discipline and motivation to real your goal, and maybe enough caffeine to kill an elephant but once you get into the grove of things it makes the rest of your day feel great. The day just flows better and gives you energy the rest of the day. Also if you couldn’t tell I was laughing a lot in some of these videos cause my gym bro was making me laugh so I cut the sound out • What’re these things on my arms? These are BFR (blood flow restriction) bands. These help to activate your fast twitch muscle fibers and which can really helps with hypertrophy which is the goal. Honestly I forgot I had them in my bag but saw them and decided to wear them for a sick pump😆 • Kind of a planned freestyle day • Started with some shrugs cause I was too impatient to wait to do them. Definitely my favorite exercise by far. Worked my way up to some heavy sets to feel strong • 500 reps of arms, split 250 and 250 between biceps and triceps. Took the BFR bands off half way through cause I started to tingle😂 and ended with a shoulder smash with front, lateral, and reverse raises • #swolemiller #fitnessaccount #gaintrains #exercisedaily #workoutlife #workhardstayhumble #fitness #gym #bodybuilding #workout #fitnessmotivation #training #exercise #muscle #gymlife #personaltrainer #arms #armsworkout #triceps #tricepsworkout #biceps #bicepworkout #shrugs #shruglife #bfrbands #worldgym #becometheape #follow #like #brand (at World Gym Cincinnati) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPV6OiXFMBT/?utm_medium=tumblr
Part 2 of today's workout at my other gym. There's other equipment here that UFC Gym doesn't and this Decline Bench Press is one of them. I'm incorporating BFR Occlusion training so I'm going for higher reps using 30% of my max. Hurts like heck with these bands but what a pump! #chuze #fitness #benchpress #bfrbands #occlusiontraining #nopainnogain #declinebench #dedication #mindset #painisgrowth #limitless #success #ageless #unbreakable #strength #endurance (at Chuze Fitness)
been working on finding the good in the bad <3 something I love about myself is how real I am in any given situation. I’ve grown into the person I am & I refuse to change who I am to make someone else more comfortable. No that does not mean that I’m rude but I am blunt & will speak my mind if I’m asked. what’s something you love about yourself? ⤵️ #bootygainsinprogress#glutegains#progressoverperfection#unapologeticallyme#bootypump#bootybuilding#growwlinds#gluteday#bootybands#bootygainz#discoverunder10k#bfrbands#bootybuilder#buildthatbooty#positivevibesonly💯#growthmindset🌱#gainsongains#progresspics https://www.instagram.com/p/CKjvMinD-0k/?igshid=ney1gapazw8e

Getting the work in while on vacation... With access to a frickin' barbell, too! The house we are staying at has a 5' barbell, so I was pretty excited to put it to use. 🙌🏻 There wasn't much weight available so the @bfr_bands were used to make it more challenging and to keep the hypertrophy gains going. #fullbody #pullday 🔸BFR Stiff-legged Deadlifts 🔸BFR Bent Over Barbell Row 🔸BFR Resistance Band Lat Pulldown 🔸BFR Upright Row 🔸BFR Resistance Band Close Grip Curls 🔸BFR Resistance Band Overhead Tricep Extensions It feels REAL good to be working with a barbell again. #vacationgains #bfrbands #bfrtraining #barbellrows #uprightrows #pulldowns #bicepcurls #tricepextensions #resistancebands #effectiveworkouts #relentless #ketogains #fit_over_40 #gainsaf #garageworkout #hypertrophytraining (at Blue Mountain Beach, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAWUGncA3A1/?igshid=y11v8z2wt57u
