Isometrics are one of the most effective training tools in your toolbox. They are effective, safe and have a lot of research behind them.
They are also extremely versatile. You can use them in different ways to accomplish different goals, including getting stronger, helping you prepare for a better workout and making your regular exercises harder and more effective. I recorded a video/ podcast sharing 3 ways that you can use isometrics to help you get better results from your training program.
Show Notes:
By Themselves To Get Stronger
As A Warm Up/ Activation Technique
Combined With Movement Based Exercises To Increase Intensity
As you can see Isometrics have a lot to offer and a lot of ways to work them into your program. I’d recommend adding these training techniques into your program to improve your results and decrease your risk of getting hurt while training or riding.
Until next time…
