“Isometric” is the Latin word literally meaning “equal measurement.” As this relates to exercise, isometric exercise is the type of muscle contraction in which the muscle is tensed and working, but not actively shortening or lengthening (with no joint movement).
Comparatively, concentric contractions are the type of contractions in which a muscle, or muscle group, is shortening (such as the abdominal muscles during a sit up) and eccentric contractions are the type of contractions in which a muscle, or muscle group, is lengthening (such as in the relaxation of the sit up motion).
Now You Can Finally Track Your Progress! Why the ISOCHAIN Represents a Quantum Leap In Isometric Training Efficiency!

While all forms of exercise provide benefits, isometric exercise is unique in the benefits it provides. Isometric exercise is also ideal for people who suffer from chronic joint pain.
With all previous isometric training devices it’s been impossible to track your progress which means:
1. There’s no way to know how much force you are generating. This is a massive stumbling block because Progressive Training is the Holy Grail of all strength methods. And without this data you cannot establish progress. This not only makes programming problematic but it essentially kills training motivation. You are training blind and have literally no idea what you’re doing, or capable of doing, in terms of work load.
2. There’s zero loading reflex. Normally the nervous system puts protective blocks on your force output. It only allows maximum force to be expressed when there is a legitimate load to be dealt with. Example: pushing against a tree versus holding a tree from crushing you as it blows over.
These two issues have previously proven insurmountable – until now! Because the ISOCHAIN solves them both.
Benefits of utilizing the IsoChain:
*Super Economical:One piece of equipment meets most of your physical training needs with nothing extra to purchase.
*Super Convenient:Fixed device requiring no plate changes or additional weights. Minimal storage requirements. Perfect for at-home training.
*Saves Your Joints from Wear, Tear and Injury:Because your limbs stay in a fixed position and don’t move under tension, injured or vulnerable joints can be trained hard with no grinding, therefore with less or no pain or damage.
*Enhanced Recovery:Because of the lack of concentric or eccentric motion, high-tension isometrics causes less damage to muscle fibers; it results in less soreness and techniques can be performed with greater frequency than conventional methods.
FIVE TRAINING MODES
Although the device comprises the latest in force-registering tech, the design team made a deliberate effort to make it super simple to use.
The ISOCHAIN is easy to use and versatile enough to train in any way you want: for general conditioning, peak strength, hypertrophy, endurance, or all of the above.
TRAINING MODES — 5 quick and easy ways to train with this tool, depending upon your strength and fitness goals:
*Feedback Mode: This is the default mode of the device. When the ISOCHAIN is on, the digital LED console on the handle tells you exactly how much force you are lifting, as weight, in real time. (Choose between kilos or pounds)
*Timed Mode: Extensive research indicates that the ideal isometric "rep" lasts just six seconds. There’s no need to look at a clock or watch to achieve this perfect rep, however. Just select Timed Mode, enter a target weight on the handle’s console, and start your drill. As soon as you reach or exceed your target weight, the buzzer sounds, with a higher pitch each second—a prolonged signal tells you when your 6 secs is up. The audible signal allows you to not even need to look at the display!
*Load Mode: Don’t want to be limited to 6 secs? Want to customize your workout, and work your holds for more, or less time? Just select Load Mode, enter your target weight on the console and begin your drill. As soon as you reach or exceed this weight, the buzzer in the handle will sound, and won’t stop until you drop below that level. Simple.
*Max Mode: What if you’ve finished your drill, and you’re wondering what the highest weight you reached was? What was your PR today? No problem. Just push the Max Mode button and your peak force for the previous drill is displayed on the console. Coaches will tell you that it’s almost impossible to know the true maximum force levels an athlete can summon using a barbell, but you can easily discover this on an ISOCHAIN, with frontline digital accuracy: zero guesswork required.
Average Mode: Want to know the average force level attained during any given drill? Just push the Average Mode button, and the CPU does the math for you. This is particularly useful if athletes are training for muscular stamina and want to record their progress in longer drills: want to know your average force output during 1 minute? 5 minutes? 10? No problem!
