Yielding vs. Overcoming Isometrics
These both have great utility for athletes.
1️⃣ Overcoming isometrics:
Really beneficial for ramping up to a maximal contraction in a certain position.
This can help you build strength at a specific joint angle for example to improve jump performance.
2️⃣ Yielding isometrics:
Involve holding against a load that’s trying to pull you. Ex: Plank, split squat, calf raise hold, etc.
I’ve used these with a lot of runner’s to improve gait mechanics.
In my current program, I’m doing split squat overcoming isometrics.
