Saga Fitness Reviews

Precise Blood Flow Restriction (BFR): Saga Fitness offers the only wireless BFR cuffs on the market that allow users to precisely dial in pressure levels in mmHg, providing accurate and customizable restriction for training.

Ease of Use: The cuffs auto-calibrate by connecting to a smart device, making them user-friendly and adjustable for different body parts or full-body sets.

Effective for Injury Management: Users have reported being able to reduce joint strain significantly (e.g., over 50% less load on knees) while still achieving strong muscle pumps, which is beneficial during recovery or when dealing with joint pain.

Versatility: The cuffs can be used not only for weight training but also during aerobic exercises like cycling, rowing, running, HIIT, CrossFit, and more. This versatility helps improve aerobic capacity (VO₂ max), tendon performance, bone density, muscle force/velocity, and even provides pain relief effects.

App Issues: Recent app updates have removed manual pressure setting options and introduced bugs such as inconsistent cuff inflation pressures between users. Some users report crashes and poor UI design that complicates usage.

Limited Workout Content: Currently lacks integrated guided workout programs within the app; users must manually track timing and exercises from external sources or blogs. A more accessible intro course was promised but not yet widely available.

Training Course Commitment: The brand offers a four-hour personal trainer course which may be too time-consuming for casual users looking for simpler guidance.
