Editor’s Note: An isometric exercise is a form of exercise that strengthens a muscle without changing its length. This exercise is great for weight loss and can also be performed in a short amount of time. You can take one minute every day to exercise the muscles on the whole body including the chest muscles, back muscles, abdominal muscles, and thigh muscles.

Isometric Exercise

For those who are unwilling to attend sports clubs or gyms, and those who have bought fitness equipment but failed to continue using it, we recommend “isometric exercise training,” a simple yet efficient exercise that can strengthen muscles.

Isometric exercise training was derived from the training theory established by German physiologists in the 1970s. The term “isometric” combines “iso,” which means “equal,” and “metric,” which means “length.” Therefore, isometric exercise is also known as “equal-length muscle contraction exercise.”

Dr. Yumi Ishihara was the physician of a former prime minister of Japan. Born in 1948, Dr. Ishihara specialized in hematology in the Caucasus (Republic of Georgia), a region known for the longevity of its inhabitants. He also researched the latest natural remedies in Switzerland. He is currently the director of the Ishihara Clinic. He is recognized as the most easily comprehensible medical commentator.
