Results Using Isometrics As A Foundation

 My weight has always had a habit of fluctuating like a lot of people, so consistent weight loss and/or fat loss wasn't always easy. That is until Isometrics started becoming more of a priority. For about a year now I've kept my weight between 260-265, still had good agility, endurance and plenty of strength along with decent conditioning. I still do Animal Moves and use other implements to stay in shape but what has given me more of a fat burning edge and putting on definition has been Isometrics on a consistent basis.

Off and on for a decade and a half I would go through these phases of training and was always fascinated with Isometrics and practiced from hand balancing, hanging, push-up holds on my fists, wall pushes, wall sits, using a strap, bodyweight, holding weight in a horse stance and muscle control. With the consistency as of late especially within a month, not only have I lost weight but starting see more consistent muscular definition, the way I move and my stamina. 

These have been my results as of now......

Like I said, normally I've kept up my weight between 260-265, these current photos are at a BW of 257.4, under 260 for the first time in a long time. Because of mainly Isometrics, I've accomplished a weight loss and fat loss I didn't expect to have. My eating habits haven't really changed and only eat when I'm hungry. Other than playing around with my workouts, my biggest recreation is either going on hikes or going for walks around the neighborhood. If I could keep this up, maybe it's possible to be under 250. Who knows?

Isometrics are a key component to aiding in fat loss especially with certain intensities. When it comes to a huge fat loss and weight loss with the results of Isometrics is Steve Justa. I don't know how much he weighs these days after doing his Isometric DVDs 6 years ago but back then he was around 206-210 I believe and looking like a beast with strength many would kill to have. Isometrics don't make you just looking good, they can give you strength from angles other methods can't touch. They can help aid in preventing injuries, strengthen the bone structure and even rehab certain areas of the body. 

I use the Isometric Power Belt from Bronze Bow Publishing as my ultimate tool for Isometrics but that might not be in your budget, so if you're looking to save a few bucks maybe the WorldFit Iso Trainer may be more suited for you if that's your interest. If you're really looking to save money, just use your bodyweight and use the environment around you, you can still get in stupid shape and build incredible strength. Karl Gotch had a saying that said "always work your muscles from every possible angle", Isometrics applies to this in very high regards. 

However you do Isometrics, make them a priority and see how far you can go and who knows, with consistency and decent eating habits, you can get shredded and possibly look like Hugh Jackman from The Wolverine (I said possibly, not guaranteed).
