    Is that where you restrict blood flow?

    Yes, the pump is good. But it's just that - a pump.

    There is some science to support it, but I didn't find it noticeably useful. A good pump, sure, but long term any benefits were not easily observable. It did give me a new option to work around injuries while using lighter weights though.
