Editor's Notes and Comments:
Brief Book Summary:
Isometrics Power Revolution is the most comprehensive and effective Isometrics fitness and training system ever devised, created to powerfully strengthen and sculpt every muscle in the entire body--without the risk of joint and spine injury or muscle tears that come with weightlifting.
The power of Isometrics training lies in being taught how to perform it correctly. Veteran strength and conditioning coach John e. Peterson shows you precisely how to use Isometrics to reshape your physique and add strength beyond your imagination--without ever moving a muscle!
Says Peterson: 'I'll show you how the most effective Isometric training techniques and exercises that will help you develop lean, perfectly sculpted muscles, shed unwanted and unhealthy weight, and achieve that unmistakable youthful glow without ever having to go to a gym, lift weights, or invest in expensive equipment.'
In Isometric Power Revolution, you'll have fingertip acess to:
* A complete and comprehensive training program of the best Isometric exercises designed to strengthen and sculpt every muscle group in your body.
* Hundreds of clear, detailed photos showing every facet of every Isometric exercise-most of which can be performed anytime, anyplace.
* An amazing 'History of Isometrics' that convincingly demonstrates why Isometric Contraction is the most scientifically validated approach to strength training and body sculpting.

A well put together book. His writing style is open and engaging. The section on breathing and blood pressure makes a huge difference to the value of isometrics. The exercises are clearly detailed and simple to follow. I have followed the routine and was impressed with the change in my muscle definition within a fortnight. The power breathing has reduced my waist by an inch. If you're interested in isometrics I highly recommend this book.

An excellent book,full of practical advice and backed up with science.
Can be used on its own,or better still...as an adjunct to a twice weekly weight-training routine to further improve results.
Not the answer to ALL fitness programmes...isometrics are of value mainly to weight-lifters and body-builders,rather than runners,cyclists or more "aerobic" - centred athletes.
But if you ARE a strength athlete...then this is the book for you!

IPR is one heck of a book. It's brimming with inspirational stories and insights that will help turn you into your own Colossus of Rhodes or other ancient strong man type person. Remember the old Carlton Atlas ads from the old days? The ones that appeared in all those women's magazines? Remember how some over muscled goon would always pick on some skinny little guy who just wanted to talk to the girls. A skinny guy who was definitely not a "theater major"(DAD!!) but might have been into language arts and the A/V department? Well, THAT guy picked on ME! Well this book is like the course offered in those magazines, except Carlton never taught actual Isometrics.He taught something called Dynamic Tension. But this stuff is just as good. Seriously, I can work out at my desk at my job at the Dungeons and Dragons Historical Society(No Orcs:))and nobody knows it unless I start wheezing and grunting, which only happens when I am using 100% effort, Usually though if I am going to hit the Iso's that hard, I prefer to do it in the men's room where that kind of wheezing and grunting is pretty common thanks to our low-fiber, hi-Twinkie and Pork Rind diet. But I learned that you can even turn THAT into a true Isometric exercise if you remember to build tension slowly and breath normally and for no more than 7-12 seconds. So I'm very strong down there. And I owe it all to this marvelous book.
Except now I'm so powerful that I hurt people just by shaking their hands or hugging them. My dear mother, what with her osteoporosis, is afraid of me hugging her now. Instead I have to hug a surrogate, a 5 foot tall stuffed Sylvester the Cat that my dad won for her at the State Fair back in 1961. I will say it hurts my emotions and that cat doesn't smell as good as Mother either. Also I keep pulling door knobs off doors. WHY DON"T WE HAVE ROBOT SLIDING DOORS LIKE ON ALL THE STAR TREKS YET!!?WHY!?WHY!?

John does an excellent job of explaiining how to do isometrics, and gives a good workout. I would recommend any reader to go to his forum as well http://www.transformetrics.com there is a forum there where this material is discussed, and he also has pictures of some of the exercises done
