Last December, my friend Kusha Karvandi was at my house for an annual entrepreneurial mastermind I host. On the last day of the mastermind, he whisked me away into my basement gym and showed me how to strap on some special bands he had created called "BFR" bands. Kusha then led me through an extremely unique workout designed to enhance things like my neural function, lactic acid tolerance and growth hormone release - all while wearing tight bands that restricted blood flow to my arms and my legs. But Kusha isn't just a masochistic trainer who cuts off blood flow to your limbs and has you do barbell squats. He's also wicked smart. He has over 20 nationally-recognized certifications, and a unique specialty in neuroscience, giving him an ability to transform his clients unlike most coaches I've met in the fitness industry. During our fascination discussion, you'll discover:
-Why you'd want to strap bands around your arms and legs, and how exactly blood flow restriction training works...[2:57]
-What happens to your growth hormone and testosterone levels when you do occlusion training...[8:24]
-Whether you have to do a specific number of sets and reps...[12:25 ]
