In isometric contraction how does the muscle stay the same length when the sarcomeres are shortening according to the sliding filament theory?

Dear freind!
there is not any filamnet sliding in isometric contraction and so there is no work...

What is muscle contraction without muscle shortening is what kind of contraction?
Isometric contraction
What is the type of contraction in which the muscle fibers produce increased tension but does not shorten?
An isometric contraction builds tension but there is no joint movement.
What is isometric movement?
Isotonic contraction results in shortening of the muscle, leading to movement. In Isometric contraction, as the name implies, there is no change in length of the muscle. Thus, it can't lead to any movement. However, Isometric contraction adds or removes power from a movement, thus facilitating or retarding it. This, facilitation and retardation itself gives us a feeling of movement, for example walking, even in the total absence of actual movement i.e. walking. This feeling of movement induced by isometric contraction is known as Isometric movement. We use isometric movements in thinking and dreaming.
what's an isometric contraction?
An isometric contraction is when the muscle does not shorten and no movement results.
What is the difference between isotonic and isometric contractions?
An Isotonic muscle contraction is a muscle contraction that makes your limbs move whereas an Isometric contraction is a muscle contraction where the limbs stay static
