Isometric Leading-Edge Technology
Advantages of using isometrics over barbells
Isometrics are:
SAFE
- There are no weights to come crashing down on you; I personally know
of a professional weightlifter who had a 300 lb barbell come crashing down on his spine, damaging his lower
back for life.
- No spotter is needed to prevent (1) from happening; and the spotter
may not be fast enough or strong enough to prevent an accident.
- No need to worry about damaging floors from falling weights.
QUIET
- Isometric exercises are quiet, and do not disturb neighbors.
- Because isometric exercises are quiet, you can perform them anytime,
even in the middle of the night. They are ideal for someone who does shift work, or in a hospital environment.
TIME-SAVING
- No time is spent changing plates.
- No time is spent adding up the total plate weight.
- No need for lengthy workouts, because static contraction is
the most intense form of exercise, and therefore the most efficient.
SELF-CONTAINED
- My chain exerciser machine is completely self-contained, like
Nautilus and Bowflex machines, yet is it PORTABLE.
Unlike most other self-contained machines, ChainExerciser is not
limited to the usual 265 lbs (120 kg). Just think how insignificant 265 lbs is for leg work. This is important for serious
trainers who want to maximize strength and bulk. ChainExerciser can handle up to 2000 lbs of force!
Easy to switch from pounds to kilograms; you would need to perform
a manual calculation using a single barbell set or have two different barbell sets.
No need to store bulky plates.
