BFR training needs to be considered significant training, so a full on maximal BFR session should not be done when recovery is sought. However, some versions of BFR training are intended to facilitate recovery and can be done with that purpose in mind. Versions are also used as part of the warm-up routine before a heavy training session or competition. All other things being equal, BFR training (since the absolute loads are low) does relatively little muscle damage and recovery from a hard BFR session is quick and prompt. So, for example, where standard heavy weight training usually has 48 hours between maximal sessions, BFR training can be performed daily in most athletes used to hard training.
