Strength Training Tips and Workouts

Isometric exercises are also known as static strength training. This is when your muscles are engaged, but they are not changing length. In some exercises, such as bicep curls, the muscle gets shorter and longer during the contraction. In isometric exercises, such as planks and wall sits, the muscle contraction doesn’t involve a change in length. Many isometric exercises require you to hold the exercise rather than repeat a movement.
