Video 382 | Essential Back and Shoulder Isometrics (45 Minutes) with Lauren Eirk
Back • 30-Nov-2022
Positional isometric strength training can build strength, improve muscle contractions, lower risk of injury, reduce inflammation, increase bone density, burn fat, and help with mobility.
In this workout, we will use bodyweight, the floor, and a ThreraBand to create resistance for the back and shoulder muscles that are used to hold joints in specific positions. The goal is to improve their ability to contract. Enjoy progressive isometric positions at a variety of joint angles to improve overal joint integrity.
This routine can be done anywhere, anytime. It can reduce fatigue after exercise, as a prevention from injury, and to help manage your muscle strength. This can also be used as a warm-up or as a workout in itself. Isometrics are the precursor to adding any load and challenge to our body.
