Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has been approved by TWiEA - The World Isometric Exercise Association (www.TWiEA.com). Isometric exercise has been a part of almost every system of the martial arts ever devised. Even before isometrics were studied scientifically and modern science-based training techniques were devised they have been taught and practised in one form or another for thousands of years. It was the great Bruce Lee and his love of isometric exercise who ensured that this system would forevermore be famously linked to all types of martial arts training. This book contains a valuable resource of practical isometric exercises designed to build serious strength, muscle and martial arts 'firepower' needed by all types of martial artists. More importantly, isometric exercise builds solid, hard, practical muscle and not the bodybuilder type of bulk that would seriously restrict a martial artist. One of the authors is recognised as being one of the leading authorities on isometric exercise, isometric exercise science and as a practitioner of several different styles of martial arts for almost 50-years. Among his many awards and accolades, he is a WKA 8th Degree Black Belt and a recipient of a WKA Lifetime Achievement Award. This gives him a unique and extremely valuable insight into science-based strength training and conditioning for the martial arts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is Triphasic Training? It is the pinnacle of sports performance training. Created by world renown coach, Cal Dietz, Triphasic Training breaks down dynamic, athletic movements into their three components (eccentric, isometric, and concentric), and maximizes performance gains by applying stress to the athlete in a way that allows for the continuous development of strength, speed, and power. Who uses Triphasic Training: Everyone! From elite level athletes to absolute beginners, the triphasic method of training allows for maximal performance gains in minimal time. For that reason professional athletes from all backgrounds seek out Coach Dietz each off-season to train with his triphasic system. Coach Dietz has worked with hundreds of athletes from the NFL, NHL, and MLB, as well as several dozen Olympic athletes in track and field, swimming, and hockey. What the book is about: Triphasic Training was originally a digital book with over 3,000 hyperlinks and 6 hours of video lectures, showing the reader exactly how to perform every exercise and apply the training methods. To ensure that you do not miss out on this valuable component, inside your book you will find a web link to a downloadable PDF that contains all of the hyperlinks and videos from the original digital book.

Simply scroll in the PDF to the page that you are reading in the book and it will have every hyperlink and video that is on that page. The book contains over 350 pages, divided clearly into 2 parts: the “why” and the “what”. The first three sections go through the physiological basis for the Triphasic method, undulated block periodization, and general biological applications of stress. The authors will explain how to incorporate the Triphasic methods into existing programs, with complete descriptions on adapting it to virtually any scenario. Sections 4 through 7 are devoted entirely to programming, with over 3,000 exercises and 52 weeks of programs for numerous different sports. Included in the programming section are: Over 3,000 exercises, each hyperlinked to a video tutorial that shows you exactly how to perform the exercise. 5 separate 24-week training programs built for either 6 day, 5 day, 4 day, 3 day, or 2 day models. Over 6 hours of video lectures by Coach Dietz further explaining the Triphasic Training method. These lectures go even deeper into the physiology and application of what he does with his elite athletes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: YOU WANT THE BEST MEDICINE FOR YOUR HEALTH, FITNESS AND EXERCISE OR SPORT, TRY THIS TODAY Isometric Exercise is a form of bodyweight training in which neither the joint angle nor the muscle length change. If you bring your palms in front of your body and press them together hard you are engaging in an isometric contraction. Resistance training is the key to decreasing body fat, increasing bone density and developing lean, healthy muscles. But in order to maximize your results with resistance training, it's important to mix things up; otherwise you will hit a plateau and stop making gains. To avoid this, you should incorporate a form of resistance training called isometrics, which allow you to really challenge your muscles and make gains, without any movement. In fact, you can perform isometrics pretty much anywhere, whether you're in the gym, sitting at your desk or driving home from work. Benefits of Isometrics There are many benefits to isometrics but one of the most important is that they don't require expensive equipment, gym memberships or large amounts of space in your home. In fact, many isometric exercises can be performed using only your body weight, such as planks and squats. Dangers of Isometric Training While isometric training is very effective, it can be dangerous if you don't train properly. If you suffer from any cardiovascular problems or have high blood pressure, then you will definitely want to consult your physician first before doing isometrics. Why? Because isometrics are static, which means we tend to hold our breath during the exercise. This causes an increase in systolic and diastolic blood pressure because of a reduction in venous return to the heart. To avoid this, you need to be sure that you always breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth during the entire muscle contraction rather than holding your breath. Everyone needs exercise whether you are lean, obese, an athlete or a lay person, man or woman. Permit me to say that exercise is the best medicine. yes!! i can say that again. There are so much benefits attached to exercising the body. Exercise help you to lose weight by burring fats or calories that are not needed in the body, it keep us fit for the day or to carry out the day's activities, it strengthens the body to perform strength activities. Exercise can be used to correct certain abnormalities and heal some kind of diseases, it improve muscle contraction. Exercise is the general cure to everything that has to do with the human health. Lastly i want you to know that before an exercise could be effective to the human body, it need to meet it frequency and duration. Any exercise that is not up to 30 minutes or more in duration is not rendered effective to the body like wise any exercise that is not done 3 times a week at least, it is also not effective for the human body. In a nutshell every exercise you do must be above 30 minutes and 3 days a week, the intensity depends on your strength. whether you are obese or not, Get a special of this book and learn everything you need to know about isometric exercises, some examples and it benefits.
