4: Biohacking Strength & Longevity with Blood Flow Restriction Training with Satsunder Khalsa

Could you work out for just 10 minutes a day and see the same results as hours in the gym? Today on The Planted Yogi, Dr. Ciara Martin sits down with Satsunder Khalsa, an expert in biohacking, longevity, and wellness optimization, to explore the science behind Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) Training—specifically, how B3 bands can enhance muscle growth, endurance, and recovery while cutting workout time in half.

Satsunder explains how BFR training increases nitric oxide and human growth hormone, boosting strength without heavy lifting. We break down the science, benefits, and misconceptions about lactic acid, muscle hypertrophy, and how these bands are used by Olympic athletes, rehab specialists, and everyday fitness enthusiasts to train smarter, not harder.

Whether you're a high-performance athlete, busy parent, or someone looking to improve longevity and vitality, this episode is packed with cutting-edge insights on fitness, recovery, and longevity.
