Our Founder/Instructor
Brett Burton, PT, DPT, SCS, ATC, CSCS
Brett Burton is an entrepreneur on a mission to help improve the health and fitness experience, for both the client and the provider. He is based out of Phoenix, Arizona and has had the opportunity to work with international leaders in the health and fitness space. With an extensive background in physical therapy, sports medicine, and performance he spent time at places like the Andrews Institute, Mayo Clinic, and EXOS being exposed to innovative approaches to caring for and improving peoples’ well being.
Brett became a full time patient himself following a cancer diagnosis in 2018. It caused him to personally experience, from a patients perspective, the strengths and weaknesses of the health system. Over the last 2 years, he has applied and built upon approaches he had learned as a health care provider to help improve his personal health. His life changing diagnosis has put his career on a new trajectory and fueled his passion for fitness, education, research, innovation, and therapy.
In 2019, Brett launched One Harmonic Motion as a platform to teach B Strong Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) Certification Seminars. It has since expanded to offering Guided B Strong BFR Training for clients of all ages and ability levels.
His introduction to product innovation and design goes back to 2015, with the creation and development of the T-Dot Mobility System. Since that time he has served on the product development team with Movement Guides Inc, and has continued to build partnerships with companies such as B Strong Training Systems to help improve their reach.

What is BFR and why should it be used?
Blood flow restriction (BFR) training allows individuals to perform exercise at lower loads, while their body gets the benefits that would typically come with a more strenuous training session. This is accomplished by slowing down the exiting of the blood through the venous system by placing bands around the extremities. B Strong has specifically engineered a narrow, elastic band with the ability to accurately determine the pressure placed through the bands. Their system allows individuals to safely perform BFR and utilize it wherever they go, not being limited by location or environment.
BFR works by impeding the circulation and decreasing the available oxygen to the muscle. As this occurs, there is less oxygen available in the environment to bring to the muscle as well as remove waste products. This creates an imbalance in homeostasis within the body where the muscle fibers fatigue and the body recruits additional muscle fibers to complete exercise. Soon, all the muscle fibers go into a fatigued state where an individual can’t complete the exercise.
The brain senses this distress and initiates autonomic and hormonal responses in an attempt to reestablish homeostasis and adapt to the exercise. Growth hormone and other anabolic hormones are released into the blood stream in an effort to build tissue that have been working or injured.
This type of training is advantageous to a wide spectrum of individuals from adolescents to the elderly as well as from the healthy to the injured. The hormonal response that BFR creates can be helpful in building muscle strength and size. It has also shown to be beneficial in improving neurological, vascular, and bone health without exposing the body to excessively heavy loads.
