Isometrics are the secret to totally transforming your body! Okay, I’ll tone down my enthusiasm for a bit and explain. Isometrics is a series of static (or at an advanced level “dynamic”) contractions that stimulate the development of lean muscle tissue. This means you burn more calories, blow-torch fat, build a firm, athletic physique and develop incredible strength.

I cover this in detail in my complete 7 Week Training Guide – 7 Seconds to A Perfect Body, The Scientifically Proven Method for Transforming Your Body in Just Seconds! Over 250 pages and filled with more than 100 photos it will transform your body from your face down to your toes, sculpting your physique and letting you develop astonishing strength with just seconds of exercise.

With Isometrics you can use the body’s own resistance or you can use external tools such as towels, door frames, weights and more. Bruce Lee even went as far as to build his own specialised machines!

In the photo on the left you can see the results of this as Bruce Lee contracts the Latsisimus Dorsi - a large pair of muscles on the back. This scene from Way of the Dragon clearly shows Bruce's incredible physical development.

Depending on the particular exercise, you contract the various muscles involved and hold them at a specific level of tension for a short period of time, often as little as 7 SECONDS!) Coupled with this are special breathing routines. These articles will explain in a clear concise manner exactly what to do and how it can help you transform you body and your health;
