STATIC/ISOMETRIC MOVEMENT

Static or isometric movement refers to a type of

muscular contraction where the muscle fibers generate
tension, but there is no visible change in the length of
the muscle or joint angle. Isometric exercises involve
holding a muscle contraction for a certain amount of
time without any movement, such as holding a plank
position or pressing against a wall. These exercises can
be used to improve strength and stability in specific
muscle groups, as well as to rehabilitate certain injuries.
