Overview
The blood flow restriction (BFR) underhand straight-bar push-down is an arm movement that builds triceps size and strength using a cable stack, straight-bar grip, and blood flow restriction bands. It is popular in high-rep 'pump'-style arm workouts. The bands should be placed as high as possible on your arms, at a tightness of no greater than 8 on a scale of 10. Most BFR workouts recommend using a far lighter weight than usual, perhaps as low as 25-50 percent of a normal working weight.

Alternatives

These alternative exercises can be used as substitutes when the original exercise is unavailable or challenging to perform due to various reasons such as equipment limitations, injuries, or personal preferences.
