BFR is already in elite sport. The problem is nobody's teaching it properly.

The Performance BFR Certification is the world's first sport-focused Blood Flow Restriction certification - a practitioner-led programme built from real-world use in elite sport, so you can apply BFR with clarity, confidence and intent.

Raise the standard of BFR in sport.

BFR is one of the most evidenced tools in performance - and one of the most inconsistently applied. This course closes the gap between the research and the training ground.

What you'll walk away with

  • A working model of how BFR actually works - stress, flush, reperfuse
  • Clear, practical frameworks for Preparation, Training and Recovery BFR
  • The confidence to apply BFR safely across a squad, not just one athlete
  • An accredited certificate that counts towards CEUs in the USA

Built for practitioners

Performance coaches, physiotherapists, S&C staff and sport scientists working in - or working towards - high-performance sport.

  • No prerequisites. Open to anybody, worldwide.
  • Cohorts are capped to maintain quality and interaction.
  • Athletes serious about their own training are welcome too.

Finish certified. Not just informed.

Key modules end with an assessment, and the course closes with the Performance BFR Certification Exam. Pass it and you earn the Performance BFR Certification - a certificate you can present for continuing-education credit.

Choose digital-only enrolment, or the digital plus product option that adds your choice of Hytro product - so you can apply what you learn from day one, on yourself, then your athletes.

Dr. Warren Bradley

Science lead · Hytro co-founder

Leads the scientific spine of the course - the physiology, the evidence base and the "stress-flush-reperfuse" framework that makes BFR teachable, drawn from the research programme behind Hytro's validated wearables.

Dan Howells

Applied practice lead

Brings the coaching floor: how BFR is actually programmed, progressed and managed inside elite environments - from warm-up priming to congested-schedule recovery, across whole squads.

Hytro offers a way of stressing the system, you're doing it with a little bit more intelligence. The athletes get quality training and are able to recover quickly.
