The Blood Flow Restriction Podcast is brought to you by SAGA - a world leader in innovative BFR technology.
This episode serves as part 2 of an in-depth 4-part series on the potential cognitive benefits to BFR training. Much of the information discussed in this series is pulled from a 2021 hypothesis paper by Yamada et al. (Acute exercise and cognition: A review with testable questions for future research into cognitive enhancement with blood flow restriction).
After reviewing the literature on general exercise and cognition in part 1, this episode dives directly into BFR training & cognition. We review the two studies to date that have directly investigated BFR's impact on cognition and describe the findings.
