Isometrisches Krafttraining

Isometric training is an ancient method that has unjustly fallen into obscurity, which can improve strength and muscular endurance. It involves static training, meaning training without movement. The unique aspect of isometric training is that it requires no special equipment. In addition to the resistance provided by one's own body, walls, tables, or door frames can also be used for training. A sequence of just a few minutes of exercises is sufficient to strengthen the muscles. This allows for training anytime and anywhere, and it is also gentle on the joints, as isometric exercises only place minimal strain on them.

The book is aimed at all athletes who want to improve their strength or muscular endurance, as well as those who have little time but still want to maintain their fitness level. The isometric method is very time-efficient and has proven effective over many years, not only with martial arts legend Bruce Lee!

In addition to a clear explanation of the method with its various roots and applications in Kung Fu, yoga, and strength training, readers will find numerous exercises for every muscle group, illustrated and filled with valuable tips. The exercises are diverse, ranging from very simple ones that even those who dislike sports can do to strengthen themselves, to very challenging ones that are particularly interesting for calisthenics enthusiasts. Training plans for various sports or even for the office perfectly round out the book.
