Скачать или смотреть Partial Pull Ups - age 55, June 1, 2024,

APOLOGIES FOR THE POOR AUDIO. I DIDN’T HAVE MY MICROPHONE🥲

For the last 17 days I have not done much exercise at all, so today is my first time doing anything remotely like a Pull Up.

I weigh 200 lbs, but the bands reduce that to 80 lbs when fully stretched, which is perfect for maintaining my ability to do Pull Ups while allowing my right shoulder to recover and heal.

The hardest part of a Pull Up for me is the start when I’m at a dead hang.

The bands allow me to repeatedly train those small muscles in the back and middle of my shoulders to properly position my shoulder blades and upper arm bones to pull me higher with less joint friction occurring at the top of the movement.

The Kastsu blood flow restriction bands I’m wearing squeeze my upper arms for 60 seconds then release for 30 seconds.

During the 60 second squeeze, the oxygen in my arms gets used up fast by the high reps and creates biochemistry that facilitates recovery and healing.

The 30 second release allows fresh, oxygenated blood to re-enter the arms and the process is repeated.

I keep these sessions short and easy, and then i go on to another group or change the bands to my legs.

Please see the “Blood Flow Restriction” playlist to see other examples of how i use the Kaatsu airbands.

Aloha
