Isometrics Complete Set
The Steve Maxwell Isometrics Complete Set
With Advanced Isometric Techniques, you get the best of both types of isometrics: Yielding and Overcoming. This program is body weight-based and can be performed pretty much anywhere. Yet for the really strong person -- the advanced man or woman -- body weight training alone is not enough; in order to preclude excessive time-under-load (TUL) Steve combines Yielding with Overcoming via a simple strap or belt.
As an example, a time-honored way of strengthening glutes and thighs is by holding the half-squat position, i.e., leaning against a wall, as a wall-seat, or free-standing as in the martial arts horse-stance.
For many people the body weight version comes too easily, but with the use of a simple strap, wherein you simultaneously push upward into the resistance -- thereby quickly eroding even prodigious strength reserve -- even the world's strongest man rapidly experiences his own body weight becomes too much to support -- and all this in 90-seconds or less! With a bonus, appropriate humility that becomes us all.
Advanced Isometric Techniques offers many examples of common exercises like the above, in which Steve adds his efficient refinement, like a Plutonian Midas touch. Smaller than small -- greater than great -- meet and unite in this video; Steve demonstrates that a man needn't go to the gym at all -- the gym is a mental state.
For the grapplers and martial artists out there, Steve demonstrates specific, isometric practices that are sure to up your game.
How to use this video
In addition to your regular sports or recreational training, Steve recommends two Advanced Isometric Techniques workouts per week. This isometrics session would replace your conventional strength training. In some cases, where the person is doing a lot of sports training or under other physical or mental stresses, just one session per week is sufficient and correct.
For non-athletes, as a standalone strength training program, this video provides a safe, effective, time-efficient, strength and body-building program that can be performed at home or taken on the road during business or vacation is altogether mobile.
