THE FATHER OF MODERN ISOMETRICS

Image
ALEXANDER ZASS Invented what is today the Isometric exercise https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexander_Zass Alexander Zass was also known under the stage name of The Amazing Samson. Zass was born in Vilna, Poland in 1888, but lived most of his early years in Russia and after 1924 in Britain. He lifted a 500 pound girder with his teeth, carried a small horse, caught a woman fired from a cannon and allowed professional boxers to hit him in the stomach, but his greatest talents were in bending steel bars and breaking chains which were the center piece of his music hall exhibitions. Like many other strongmen of his era Zass was initially motivated to develop his strength when he attended a circus and saw the feats done by the circus strongman.

WHY ISOMETRICS?

That was until I went through double hip replacements and realized that my powerlifting days were over! I read books on Tai Chi, Yoga, resistance band training, the Total Gym, Calisthenics, you name it I read up on how I could workout, stay strong and keep my weight down!

WHAT ARE ISOMETRICS?

Image
WHAT ARE ISOMETRICS?  An isometric exercise involves the static contraction of a muscle without any visible movement in the angle of the joint... The term "isometric" combines the Greek words "isos" (equal) and "metria" (measuring). With isometric exercises, the length of the muscle and the angle of the joint do not change, though contraction strength may vary. This is in contrast to isotonic contractions, in which the contraction strength does not change, though the muscle length and joint angle do.
