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
