Description
Exercises that involve isometric contraction are those that contract muscles without moving the joints surrounding the muscles. Increasing muscle endurance and supporting dynamic exercises may be improved by constant tension on the muscles.
Most strength exercises require moving joints, pushing or pulling against resistance. Although static and repetitive exercise can be beneficial, isometric exercises involve intense repetition.
Throughout the book, we will provide some examples of isometric exercises as well as discuss some of their benefits.
In this book you will learn
- Benefits of isometric exercise
- How to start
