What are the categories of strengthening and endurance?
Isometric, isotonic, and isokinetic exercises.
What do isometric isotonic and isokinetic exercises have in common?
they have nothing in common
How is isokinetic exercise done?
Isokinetic exercise utilizes machines that control the speed of contraction within the range of motion. Isokinetic exercise attempts to combine the best features of both isometrics and weight training.
Are the categories of strengthening and endurance activities?
Isometric, isotonic, and isokinetic exercises.
What are the categories of strengthening and endurance activities?
Isometric, isotonic, and isokinetic exercises.
Is running an isokinetic exercise?
No a push up uses fixed resistance (normally body weight or more if weights are added) which is isotonic not isokinetic
Is rowing a boat a Isokinetic exercise?
No it is not you can choose to row at any speed hence it is isotonic in nature
What types of exercises are there?
Isotonic and Isometric exercise are the two types of the exercises. In Isotonic exercise you do not use the load or weight. You can use the antagonist muscle contractions in Isotonic muscle exercises. In isometric exercises you use the weight or load to develop the muscles. You know the term, metric tone. So in Isometric exercise you lift the weight.
What is Isotonic Exercise in a SIMPLE description?
Isotonic exercise (or muscle contraction) is when the muscle contracts and shortens giving movement (ie a bicep curl, lifting and lowering weight) Nearly all the training you do is Isotonic the opposite is Isometric, where the muscle contracts but des not shorten, giving no movement. Eg, Weightlifting, Lifting the weight up and down is isotonic Holding the weight still above the head is isometric
What does isokinetic mean?
Exercise with possible varying resistance and a fixed maximum speed. In exercise terms it is a motion during which the speed is set and the resistance is variable. If the person does not achieve the pre set speed the exercise is classed as isotonic
What is isotonic excercise?
drinking lucozade
Is the hang clean isotonic or isokinetic?
hang clean depends on the intensity of the work. The hang clean is isotonic not isokinetic because it can be done at varying speeds and the resistance is always pre determined (normall body weight or less if done on a machine)
