What is the advantage of these over regular household tourniquets, which I can but for $8 instead of $38? This just seems like a waste of money

The goal is to restrict blood flow, not completely occlude it. Venous blood flow can be occluded up to 100% with these, but arterial blood flow only up to 80%. However, a tourniquet will completely restrict blood flow to the distal extremities (100% venous and arterial), while these bands will only slow the blood flow as previously stated. Main benefit: increase in proximal/central release of HGH and IGF-1, and distal increase in vasodilatory reactions to increase blood flow. Cheers.

Will the thigh band fit 30" thighs?

I have the PRO BFR Bands which I mainly use for my arms, but also use on my thighs. However my thighs are approx 24", so I think the normal PRO Bands will be a bit short for you. There are a couple of other options in the BFR range that you could use: There is the PRO BFR bands LONG Edition (these are most popular for legs); the Double Wrap Bands, which are 42" long; or the Quad Wrap Bands which are 80" long. Hope this helps.

I know having the bands too tight can be dangerous. How do you monitor blood flow?

You will want to monitor perceived tightness (if using a scale of 1-10, with 10 being tightest, the bands should feel about 5 in the beginning of the workout and reach and maintain a 7 shortly after the warm up). You will also want to monitor any numbness or pain, and loosen the bands as needed. My final recommendation is to never lift heavy weight while occlusion training and to always try to stay under 20% of your 1 rep max.

Has anyone used these on their legs? Or should Istick with knee straps

I use them on my legs successfully. Though it can be difficult to achieve the same level of tightness on each leg. The guy I frequently work out with uses knee straps and he says he simply prefers the straps.

Supplier provided cheap quality not as advertised

Bad experience. After choosing this supplier, thinking I will receive a high quality bands as advertised, I received a simple bands that I could purchase 5 times cheaper. Green color instead of blue color, No logo, no engraving in the closing system etc.I returned the item. This is not a serious supplier
