What else can I help you with?
Would a bicep curl be an exampleof an isometric exercise?
If it is a true and false question your answer is: False :)Only if done on an isokinetics machine otherwise it would be isotonic
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
Is concentric isotonic contraction is defined as tension developing in the muscle as it shorten?
That is correct, the muscle shortens as it contracts. E.g. A bicep curl, the bicep muscle as you lift the wight up is Isotonic contraction. :)
What muscles are worked during a cross body bicep curl exercise?
During a cross body bicep curl exercise, the biceps brachii muscle is primarily worked.
Is an empty handed curl a example of isometric exercise?
yes and no
What rhymes with girl and related to fitness?
Curl (bicep exercise).
Is curls up exercisestatic exercise or dynamic exercise?
A bicep curl would be considered a dynamic exercise.
What is the average weight in kilograms that individuals typically lift during a bicep curl exercise?
The average weight individuals typically lift during a bicep curl exercise is around 10 to 15 kilograms.
What is an example of a isotonic exercise?
An example of an isotonic exercise is a bicep curl, where a person lifts a weight by flexing their elbow, causing the muscle to shorten and lengthen throughout the movement. This type of exercise involves a constant load and allows for muscle contraction against resistance, which helps build strength and endurance. Other examples include squats and bench presses.
What is an example of an isotonic contraction?
An Isotonic contraction is when a muscle becomes longer or shorter to produce force and therefore an example is a bicep curl. During the downward phase your muscle (bicep) lengthens and during the upward phase your muscle (bicep) shortens.
How does it feel to perform a bicep curl exercise and experience the contraction in your forearm muscles?
Performing a bicep curl exercise can feel like a tightening or squeezing sensation in your bicep muscle. When you experience the contraction in your forearm muscles, it may feel like a strong, tense sensation as those muscles work to support the movement.
What is an example of a concentric exercise and how does it benefit the muscles?
An example of a concentric exercise is a bicep curl, where you lift a weight towards your shoulder. This exercise benefits the muscles by primarily targeting the bicep muscle, helping to strengthen and tone it.
