Although “isometric” simply means “same length/angle”, in practice there are a variety of ways to apply isometric loading. Here are some of the common distinctions.

The length of the hold (time under tension) dramatically changes the physiological outcome of an isometric contraction. While all isometrics involve static force production, the intensity–duration balance determines which tissues adapt and how.

Stuck at “plateau?”  With isometrics you can isolate the weak points through your dynamic range of motion and focus on loading the specific angles of deficiency allowing you to maximize your full-strength potential and blow through those plateaus!

All it takes is 5-10 minutes of a couple of rounds of intentional movements to reduce the risk of being sidelined for a long period of time.
