The Isometric Bible is the definitive, science-backed guide to the fastest and most efficient strength-building method ever discovered. Clear, practical, and genuinely usable, this landmark book unlocks the true power of isometric training for everyone-from complete beginners to seasoned athletes seeking smarter results.
Modern research now confirms what dedicated practitioners have known for decades: isometrics can build muscle and strength faster and more effectively than traditional training, without the wear and tear that often accompanies conventional workouts. Yet despite its proven effectiveness, isometric exercise has long been misunderstood-even within the fitness industry. The Isometric Bible cuts through the noise and explains exactly how it works, why it works, and how to use it properly.
Learn how to train your entire body in just minutes a day, anywhere life takes you. On a plane, in a car, at home, or discreetly at work-no gym and no special equipment required. The book also shows how to create powerful workouts using everyday items such as broom handles, towels, walking poles, or rope. Crystal-clear, arrow-guided photographs of co-author and US Bikini Fitness contestant Helen Ren e demonstrate each exercise step by step, making correct technique easy and intuitive.
Written by Brian Sterling-Vete, internationally respected exercise scientist and elite strength coach-ranked among America's top ten fitness coaches in 2015-this book draws on decades of real-world expertise. Brian has coached national and world champions, including two-time world martial arts champion Stuart Hurst and four-time World's Strongest Man J n P ll Sigmarsson of Iceland.
Comprehensive yet accessible, practical yet deeply scientific, The Isometric Bible is the ultimate companion for anyone who wants to gain serious strength safely, efficiently, and anywhere-and to finally understand the method that delivers more results with less time.
Isometric exercise can be performed either with or without equipment. However, to make it easier, more fun, and more effective, we suggest 2 x Iso-Bows available on Amazon, and/or IIEDs (Improvised Isometric Exercise Devices) such as a climber's sling and daisy chain, a strong climbing rope, and a towel. An interesting and crucial footnote is that 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 Ren e Wuorio, worked closely with the NHS Research and Innovation Team to create a practical and effective system suitable for virtually anyone in any job.
