20 Isometric Exercises Anyone Can Do (With No Equipment) 

Thanks for the list! 📝

@@manu1007 You're welcome & don't forget to share

Thank you 😊

Thanks!

Thanks for the list! So, I'm not sure if this was ever intended to be a sequence of moves... but I tried to reorganize it into a 26 minute workout. I had some fun trying to rearrange them to be more doable in succession (trying to alternate more between upper/lower and harder/easier moves). But I'd love to know your thoughts. #1 Wall sit #2 Straight-arm plank #3 Sumo squat #4 Floor-assisted L-Sit #5 Glute bridge #6 Static lunge #7 One arm plank #8 Hamstring curl #9 Active beast #10 Forearm plank #11 Side plank #12 Superman hold (break before a super hard move) #13 Biceps plank #14 Straight bridge #15 Wall T-hold #16 Hollow body #17 Leaning straight-arm plank (break again before another super hard move) # 18 Bent arm pike #19 Calf raise #20 Chest to Wall handstand I set an interval timer for 26 one-minute work intervals and 12 second rests between exercises. 24 working minutes allows you to complete all exercises. But I take extra rest time before bicep plank and bent arm pike. Those things are crazy :)

Thanks for the info. I am going through a similar phase now

Wow, that's cool, I'm gonna try that.

Wow-- As someone who struggles with my own mental health issues, this makes SO much sense. There are days I struggle to get going at all and I am definitely going to take your advice and try to use some of these exercises to help!! Thanks you

@@sauerkraut8881 set an alarm for 50-55 minutes, every time it rings go for a 5-10 minute brisk walk. Try it for a few days, feels so good once you get into it.

Same here 🙂

Wow, Paul

Thanks. Very helpful.

Podés hacerlo en español?

Paul Schweissbrenner thank you

Thanks Paul

❤❤❤

I like the annoying music 🎵

Yay no Taylor swift music 💯

Prasanna J well said mate

Then why don't you try yoga

@@adityarokade7086 Maybe he means strengthening exercises. Yoga is flexibility and mobility.

@@davidpesti4450 there are some yoga poses that are badass isometric, please check it u will like it 😄

Prasanna J sir, lots of don't even think this way thanks.... Actor martial art performer Sanjay waghule india.

Isometrics are also good for joints but typicaly for joints you need to "max out" using weights or cables.

I do as well

Look up Dr. Lee Merrit. She has a theory that MS is actually a parasite which can be detoxified out of your body using a pharmaceutical which was made famous by our former President and this is why they they started covering it up... he was calling out something known to cure many health problems and Big Pharma would lose BILLIONS if you knew what it can do.

Yeah, If I were to try some of these, like against the wall, pretty sure I'd find myself sliding down onto the floor😅

Take a look at Dr.Terry Wahls for a cure for MS. She cured herself.

Ten, just how much of an Old-timer are you???

Wow, that's good to know! With so much information at so many levels its hard to know what's really beneficial vs injury. Thanks for sharing,

Yogis have been doing isometrics for thousands of years. They're an essential part of any yoga routine with a strength component.

@@derekofive9676 68. I was around 10 when the Green Hornet came out.

To say isometrics make no sense at all is like saying handstands front levers dead hangs and full L-sit all don't make sense but people all of over the world reap the benefits from it

@@malikbramble2474 go home and check your eyes idiota

I disagree. My isometric workouts end in screams of anguish and shrieks of pain. Sometimes, I swear I can hear my muscles cry in agony, and hurling insults at my brain for deciding to do them. Just saying...

@Stretch n Strong Yes, breathing and farting in check.

Yes, they're great "no excuse" exercises that you can truly do anytime, anywhere. Apartment living, while on vacation, while kids are asleep, while watching TV or listening to an audiobook, and at any age, though you may need to work up to and modify them a bit if very out of shape or older adult.

Same at my end... 😁

it was not a punishment, it was thoughtful to teach you discipline, body awareness, focus and strength in the spare time you got :)

@@monnoo8221 that's an interesting way to say punishment

@@monsieurLDN did not intend to find a wordy envelop.... it was teaching and punishment... weights of those depending on the perspective

@@monsieurLDNdiscipline isn’t how you punish a kid, it’s how you raise a kid. Discipline is how adults prioritize values over comfort and dopamine seeking, which lead us to an early and unhappy grave. Discipline is positive practice, not a punishment. Parents raising kids like it’s punishment is why society is disintegrating, and everyone is depressed.

My BP is always high I am definitely going to try this video!

​. I read your comment stating you suffer from high BP. I am 72 and had the same issue. I got the idea of taking L-citruline powder in a 3g dose from another person, my age, who also suffered the same malady. It took about four days to take effect. Now my BP is between 116/68 and 119/78. A far cry from the high 140s and 150s I was running. It is something your body makes but as we age we start losing it. I buy it at Bulk Supplements and it runs under 20 dollars plus S/H for a month supply(250g). I just ordered my second month supply. Hope this helps you.

😅😅😅😅 yep!

your true ability is your headache.

Same, specially the last one 🤣🤣

He didn’t say everyone , he said anyone . Very different .

😂🤣😂🤣😂

Yes, agreed. So many of these positions are asanas.

@johnbishop9000 they are also asanas in yin, vinyasa, Pilates and qigong. Variety is the spice of life I enjoy all of them daily. Keeps me balanced, supple and agile at 64 years young :)

Hatha Yoga is a bastardised version of a system called Primitive Gymnastics invented in Denmark and Sweden.

Yup. This is a mix of yoga and Qigong 😊

Thanks for sharing! It's confirmation on what I've been thinking for a long time.

Yes, they are all yoga moves! 😂

Do you find you are gaining/ building muscle or toning up?

Just stretching my calves on the windowsill

Wow! That is a very low and almost unheard of resting HR! Even lower than top cyclists! How did you achieve that -- do you do any cardio, HIIT, Pranayama, heart-strengthening exercises?

​@@0anant0 I did that by creating my own exercise routine when I was diagnosed with Osteo Arthritis, requiring a total hip replacement (just received that 2.5 weeks ago). In my 3rd year of this condition, I continued with cardio, HIIT, and workout on the Olympic rings. Cardio 3 times per week late afternoon - 3,000 skips in sets of 200, interspersed with pushups (200-300 total), crunches (200 total), and planks (5 minute total - no more than 30 seconds each set interval). In the morning 3 times per week, very slow jog around a three hundred metre oval, stopping every 150m to do 10-20 push ups, 10 laps = 3km easy and anywhere between 200-400 push ups (proper push ups). When I added the morning routine my heart rate went from 32 to 28 in 4 weeks. I had to stop jogging in the 4th year, and replaced this with doing 2,000 punches on the boxing bag in sets of 200, interspersed with 10x100 lots of skipping (total 2,000) and included curls and uprigh rows, crunches for intensity. I worked the Olympic rings 2-3 times per week doing knee lifts as far as possible, arms downward, reverse pulls - legs extended on ground, and upside down pull ups. Just worked around the hip, as I was no longer able to run (400m - 7km), row, or cycle, due to inability of hip flexing. I also did some reverse dips in my spare time. I love this video because I have let my isometrics go a bit, so these are a great reminder for me to re-engage in isometrics, as I work through my rehabilitation presently. Of course, eat sensibly, and try and sleep at least 6.5-7 hours per night (I know, should be more). As a Christian, I also pray lots and read the Bible, which has a personal health, as well as spiritual benefit, e.g. "Do not be wise in your own eyes. Fear the Lord and depart from evil. It will be health to your body and strength to your bones." (Proverbs Chapter 3, Verse 7, 8) When we apply God's word to our lives, our body is strengthened, as well as our Spirit (His Spirit in us, when we received Christ as Lord and Saviour) - the literal meaning of this word body, is navel, signifying the good digestion. Additionally we should enjoy marrow to our bones - or a healthy immune system as the marrow is the producer of blood cells - which is especially topical and relevant during COVID, and flu season - Hope this helps you.

@@firstbornjordan Thanks for a detailed reply and a lot of good advice! I will try to incorporate what you have said in my routines, esp strict form for push-ups. I am currently recovering from tendinitis in my right elbow and it gives me a chance to re-think my workout routine. Thanks again for such valuable info!

@@0anant0 Absolutely a pleasure - I still have much to learn myself - never stop learning.

yeah sure, that why professional athlets never uses the gym rigth?

just need that brazzers logo in the corner

@@CarlosGonzalez-ll6xx most people, for their goals, don't need a gym. The select few that actually do would never keep a gym financially sustainable.

@@jackdawcaw4514 dude i fucking typed athletes, i dont asked nothing bout common people
