49 minutes

Episode 164 of the Fit Father Project Podcast is all about blood flow restriction (BFR) and the unique benefits of BFR training.

In this episode, you’ll meet Steven Muñatones, the CEO and co-founder of KAATSU, the pioneer and world leader in BFR training for recovery, rehabilitation, and performance.

Steven has taught KAATSU applications and benefits to thousands, including Navy SEALs, Olympic gold medalists, and people in their 80s and 90s.

With KAATSU, Steven has been able to enable a myriad of people, from wounded warriors and paraplegics to Olympic and professional athletes, to rehabilitate more quickly, effectively, and conveniently.

He has seen KAATSU enable older, sedentary Baby Boomers to improve their blood circulation and muscle tone, and he has utilized KAATSU himself as cardiac therapy, proving unheard-of confidence in the BFR modality.

Steven’s passion for health and fitness stems from his own background. He was an NCAA Division I water polo player and swimmer, and is a Guinness World Record holder, inductee in the International Marathon Swimming Hall of Fame and the Ice Swimming Hall of Fame, and the recipient of the Poseidon Award from the International Swimming Hall of Fame.

He coached the USA Swimming national team at 9 international competitions, including 4 world championships, served as an NBC commentator at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, and founded WOWSA, the World Open Water Swimming Association.

Needless to say, Steven has led an interesting and exciting life and has a lot of stories to tell! But more than anything, I can’t wait for you to hear all about KAATSU and the deep and powerful effects of this type of training, that’s more accessible than you may think!
