About this title

Synopsis

Isometric exercise is an integral part of almost every martial arts system. Even before isometrics were studied scientifically, named, and modern science-based training techniques were devised, they have been taught and practised in one form or another for thousands of years.

The great Bruce Lee's love of isometric exercise ensured that this system would forever 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 'firepower' all martial artists need.

More importantly, isometric exercise builds solid, hard, practical muscle, not the bodybuilder type of bulk that would seriously restrict the speed and flexibility a martial artist needs.

In the exercise resource section, arrows clearly show the direction in which the force should be applied.

Brian Sterling-Vete is recognised as one of the leading authorities on isometric exercise science and has practised several martial arts styles for over 50 years.

Among his many awards, Brian is a WKA 8th Degree Black Belt and recipient of a WKA Lifetime Achievement Award.

This combination of martial arts and exercise science knowledge gives him unique, extremely valuable insight into advanced science-based strength training and conditioning needed for every martial art.

As a valuable footnote, the National Health Service (NHS) Innovation Team in Greater Manchester, England, has successfully trialled and deployed the Workout at Work system for employees.

The authors, Brian Sterling-Vete and Helen Renée Wuorio, worked closely with the NHS Research and Innovation Team to create a practical and effective system suitable for virtually anyone in any job.
