Get rock-hard muscles using a device you can carry around in a small backpack. Imagine that
instead of just sitting on a beach or a park bench doing nothing, you can build muscle, and in time, impress your friends
with the amazing power you can acquire.
The technique, called static contraction, is
This 800 lb (363 kg) capacity chain exerciser is a must for people who cannot afford expensive
home gyms or may not have the room for one.
Did you know that physical therapists make use of isometrics for testing muscle strength?
And for rehabilitation, isometrics are used to strengthen tendons and muscles. This type of exercise is suitable even for
elderly people, and it only takes a few seconds per repetition.
I generally do three "sets" of a specific exercise each day:
-
For the first set, I exert 1/2-maximum effort
-
For the second set, I exert 3/4-maximum effort
-
For the final set, I go all out at maximum effort
In the past, I once visited a gym three times a week, and yes, I made some gains. I did
the traditional three sets per exercise, and usually spent an hour or two at the gym each visit. I can now tell you that after
just one month of isometric exercises, that I have made more progress than I did after six months at a conventional gym. I
am able to perform exercises for just 10 minutes at the end of each work day, just before I have dinner, and wow, what results!
My wife started working out a couple of weeks after me, and now she is 49% stronger. She pushed an
incredible 132 lbs using the tricep extension. That's more than I could do when I first started, and I was already strong.
You're probably thinking that she is a "big bruiser", but no, she only weighs 128 lbs and stands 5' 4".
I am pushing over 1100 lbs at present, so I need to do one leg at a time.
Compare my machine to those put out by 1repgym (www.1repgym.com) and by explosive fitness (www.explosivefitness.com) on the Competition page. My
unit is portable and easily stored in a closet, unlike my competitors. For most athletes, 800 lbs. is sufficient. And
yes, the price is significantly less—ChainExerciser is only 1/3 the price!.
