Overcoming isometrics-
an exercise performed against an immovable object
💥Can be performed at lower thresholds to improve pain free capacities and maximal thresholds to increase neural drive, force production, and increase tissue capacity
💥Often performed as a superset with a strength or power exercise to take advantage of post activation potentiation of the nervous system
💥Can be used to increase strength at a sticking point of a lift around specific joint angles
💥Performed at shorter durations (1-10 seconds) based on intended goal
