IntroductionIf you are looking for a way to get in great shape and get stronger while sculpting yourbody in the least amount of time, then Power Isometrics is for you. Why does thisexercise system work so well? Let me explain.Like many words, Isometrics is derived from the Greek. Iso meaning “equal” and metricmeaning “distance”. When we refer to isometric exercise we are talking about anexercise system in which, although force is applied to the muscles, the musclesthemselves never contract. Their muscular length remains the same. This is called anisometric contraction and it is the key to this entire course. Hereʼs how it works.Any muscle in your body is made up of thousands of muscle fibers of varying lengthsand abilities. Some are explosively quick, others posses great endurance, still othersare extremely powerful. Any time your body needs to move a muscle, your braincommands whatever muscle fibers it needs to start contracting.Here is the key point. Your body is very efficient and it only activates the bare minimumnumber of muscle fibers required. Imagine you pick up a paper cup. As it only takes afew muscle fibers to generate the necessary force to contract the muscle to pick up thecup, that is all that is used. If you go to pick up something heavier like, say, a jug oflemonade, your body will use more muscle fibers. Still, it will never use ALL of them if itdoesnʼt need to.This is the whole principle behind weightlifting. The reason you have to do 3 sets of 12repetitions when performing a biceps curl is that you are trying to tire out and work ALLof the muscle fibers. So, as you initially start curling, your mind activates only the bareminimum of muscle fibers required. However, as you keep going, those fibers tire andour brain has to activate others to keep going. This process of muscle fibers tiring andCopyright 2010 by David Nordmark.

being replaced in the task by others continues until (ideally) all of the muscle fibers havebeen worked. When you reach this point you may find it impossible to perform one morerep. This is called muscle failure in weightlifting and it means youʼve worked everymuscle fiber in your biceps.Now, instead of performing biceps curls with weights, what happens when you workyour muscles against each other? Imagine you place your hands together palm-to-palmin front of your chest and you start squeezing as hard as you can. Your brain is gettingthe message that it is trying to move your right arm leftward and your left arm rightward.In order to do this it needs to contract muscles in both arms. It starts to do this butbecause there is no movement, no contraction occurs. How does your brain respond? Itkeeps recruiting more and more muscle fibers together in an attempt to contract themuscles and move the arms. It has no idea that this is a futile exercise as the arms areacting against themselves! In a way with an isometric contraction you are tricking yourbrain into using ALL of the available muscle fibers at the same time. This is why it ispossible to exhaust ALL of the muscle fibers in 7 to 12 seconds. This is the secret of theisometric contraction and isometric exercises in general.Copyright 2010 by David Nordmark.

The Story of Alexander ZassThere are many stories I could tell that would demonstratethe amazing results possible when the isometric contractionis properly applied. However, I feel the best story concernsone Alexander Zass. A world famous strongman at thebeginning of the last century, he was known by his stagename “The Mighty Samson”. He is also considered bymany to be the father of isometric exercises. This is hisstory.Young Alexander was born in Poland but raised in Russia. When he was a boy hisgrandfather took him to the circus. Of all the sights he saw there, it was the circusstrongmen that impressed him the most. He vowed to become as strong as they wereand join the circus himself one day. He started training immediately, doing suchactivities as climbing trees and lifting barbells and dumbbells. It wasnʼt long before hewas strong enough to join a circus. Once there he learned even more from thestrongmen he worked with. He built his physique up and he was widely known for hisgreat strength.During World War I, however, Alexander Zass was captured and imprisoned by theAustrians. Confined to a cell and bound by shackles, Zass became despondent. Howcould he train when he could barely move? He feared that without exercise he wouldrapidly lose the incredible strength that he had worked so hard to acquire. Out of sheerfrustration he began straining against the shackles that bound him and the prison barsthat confined him. Without knowing it he began exercising using isometric principles.Much to his surprise he found that this method of training allowed him to becomestronger than ever before!How strong did he get? So strong that when the opportunity presented itself he wasable to bend and break the shackles that bound him BY HAND. Next he ripped out theCopyright 2010 by David Nordmark.

prison bars, bent one of them into a J hook for scaling the wall, and was able to makehis escape!After the War, Alexander Zass toured Europe performing amazing feats of strength asthe “Mighty Samson”. He was known for bending bars, breaking chains with his chest,lifting 500 pound girders with his teeth and carrying small horses. The only trainingmethod he used was isometrics - he never lifted weights. Later he published a trainingbook of isometric exercises that sold well throughout Europe. From reading the above isthere any doubt in your mind what can be achieved with isometrics? Whether you wantto get stronger, build an impressive physique, or both, following this program can getyou there.Copyright 2010 by David Nordmark.

How to Use this CourseThe Power Isometrics course is divided into several different exercises by body part. Forexample, there are three exercises for your arms, seven for your back, etc. In general,each exercise has three different positions (A, B and C) for which it can be performed.The exceptions for this are: For some exercises, like the trapezius contraction, there is only one position. There are A,B and C positions for the chest exercise. However, there are 4 differentvariations for each position.There are two ways to work through this course:1. On Day 1, perform ALL of the exercises in Position A. Day 2, do all of the exercisesin Position B. Day 3 - you guessed it - perform all of the exercises in Position C.When you come to an exercise that has only one position perform it on each of thethree days. I recommend training for three days, then resting on the fourth. However,if you wish, you can exercise every day.2. You can divide up your workout by exercises. So on Day 1 you would perform allthree positions for the abs, neck and back. Day 2 perform all three positions for theshoulders, biceps/triceps and wrist forearms. Day 3 perform all three positions forthe chest and legs.Copyright 2010 by David Nordmark. All rights Reserved.www.animal-kingdom-workouts.comPage 10!
How to Perform these ExercisesWhen performing these exercises you must always focus on two things: 1) Your breathand how you are breathing, and 2) your mind - you must always focus on which muscleyou are working. Let me explain further:Your Breath - There are three distinct breathing phases for each isometric contraction.1. Breathe in through your nose for 3 to 4 seconds. As you do start to build tension inthe muscles you are working. When you have finished deeply inhaling the musclesyou are working should be at maximum tension.2. Once your muscles are at peak contraction you will want to perform a controlledexhale through your mouth for 7 to 12 seconds. This is done by making a“sssssssss” sound through your clenched teeth or lips. Done correctly you shouldsound like a snake or like a tire losing air. Throughout the exhale you will maintainmaximum tension in the isometric contraction you are performing.3. To release the tension slowly inhale again through your nose for 3 to 4 seconds. Asyou do so, relax your muscles slowly. Once you have reached 4 seconds yourmuscles should be relaxed completely.Your Mind - Most people find this surprising, but it is the truth. The power and strengthto contract your muscles with greater and greater intensity and efficiency does not existin your muscles, it exists in your mind. Your brain controls your muscles. Because of thisit is imperative that you think into your muscles and perform each contraction aspowerfully as possible with laser-like intensity. If you are performing an isometriccontraction on your biceps imagine in your mind the blood racing into the muscle.Visualize your biceps muscle growing larger, stronger and more defined as you do so.In order to achieve maximum results it is imperative that you do so.Copyright 2010 by David Nordmark.

To further illustrate this point I want to take a quote from a work entitled “Muscle Control”by Maxick in 1911. Maxick was a famous strongman and physical culturist at thebeginning of the previous century. These are his thoughts on the mind-body connection:How Mechanical Exercise May Hinder MuscleDevelopment“One day I was watching a journey-man filing metal. I fell to wondering vaguelywhy it was that his arm and deltoid development was so small in comparison withthat of the rest of his body, knowing, as I did, that the man had worked at thebench for years. Surely, according to accepted theory, it was just these parts whichshould be the more developed considering the nature of this work!I was so interested in this case that I began to take careful note of the otherworkmen; and my observations at length convinced me that mechanical exercisewill not increase bulk of strength beyond a certain degree.I found out later by experiment that mechanical exercise will only produce goodresults if interest is directed to the muscles being used. If the mind is directed onlyto work being performed, a certain point of muscular resistance is reached; butthere it stops. To secure full benefit from the exercise it is essential that the mindbe concentrated on the muscles, and not on the work performed.”The Case of the Stonemason“Instances by way of example may be given by the hundred. Take the case of thestonemason, who has to use a hammer or mallet for many hours daily, duringwhich thousands of blows are struck, and the shoulder and the arm have to bearthe weight, as well as use the mallet.Copyright 2010 by David Nordmark. All rights Reserved.www.animal-kingdom-workouts.comPage 12!
Now, according to the theories enunciated by many teachers of physical culture,the greater the number of repetitions performed of one exercise, the greater thedevelopment of the muscles employed. But here is a flat contradiction of thesetheories, for it will be observed that the majority of stonemasons do not evinceanything exceptional in the way of arm and shoulder muscle development.And the explanation? Perfectly simple! The stonemasonʼs mind is necessarilyconcentrated upon the work before him, and he pays little or no heed to hismuscles”Iʼve heard similar thoughts on the importance of the mind from modern bodybuilders aswell. Rachel Mclish, who was the first Ms. Olympia, stressed the importance of usingher mind and imagination to make her muscles larger and more defined. ArnoldSchwarzenegger advocated the same thing. If you want to get the most out ofperforming these isometric contractions, do not let your mind wander. Always focus onthe task at hand and what you are trying to accomplish.Copyright 2010 by David Nordmark. All rights Reserved.www.animal-kingdom-workouts.comPage 13!
If You Desire Larger MusclesIf you perform the isometric exercises as Iʼve outlined above you will get stronger andyour muscles will get more defined. However, if you really want to add serious size toyour frame you will need to do two things:1. Repeat every exercise, but for the second set, perform them longer and at lessintensity. So if you are performing the biceps curl you will perform it once for 7 to 12seconds at maximum intensity. The second time you perform it though you will wantto perform it at 35% intensity for 2 to 3 minutes. When you perform the isometriccontraction this way, breathe in through your nose and out through your mouth.Never hold your breath. Holding the contraction for longer and at this lower intensitywill allow the blood to rush into the muscle being worked and help it to get bigger.2. You must focus on your diet. It order to add size you must eat healthy food andconsume MORE in calories than you body needs. These extra calories will be usedby your body to build the muscle you need.

Some Final Points Before Beginning When Iʼm performing an isometric contraction, I like to combine the act of breathingand counting with my mental visualization. Letʼs say Iʼm performing an isometriccontraction with my biceps. As Iʼm breathing in for 3 to 4 seconds, I imagine thenumbers appearing before me over my biceps in big, colorful, balloon-like shapes. Atthe same time Iʼm imagining the blood flowing into my biceps, and the muscle growingand becoming more defined. This technique of seeing the numbers as well as yourmuscles really helps to concentrate the mind. When performing these exercises I like to go from one to the next with minimal rest.However, if you are really out of shape or havenʼt exercised for a while this is not thebest approach. In such cases it is wise to pause for a minute or two between eachexercise and take 5 to 10 full deep breaths through your nose. You should never feelfaint when performing these exercises. If you do feel faint, you will want to ease up,take some deep breaths and maybe even sit down for a moment.Copyright 2010 by David Nordmark.

Abdominal ExercisesFor aesthetics everyone wants a flat stomach and a six-pack abs look. However,thereʼs more to the abdominal than just looks. Strong abdominal muscles will notonly help you maintain youthfulness and vigor but will enhance the functionality ofevery gland and organ in your trunk. They also aid in digestion and elimination.Note that if you want the 6 pack abs look you will need to watch your body fat level.For men this usually means less than 10% body fat and for women less than 14%.Copyright 2010 by David Nordmark.

Isometric Stomach FlattenerThis exercise is incredibly effective at working your stomach muscles and trimming yourwaistline. The reason it is so effective is that it works both your external and internalmuscles. When you first try this exercise itʼs not uncommon to feel light-headed or dizzy.This feeling will pass with practice.1. Stand up tall and straight with your hands by your sides.2. Take a deep breath by breathing in through your nose for 3 to 4 seconds. Suck yourstomach in as you do so.3. Contract your abdominal muscles in as hard as you can for 7 to 12 seconds as youbreathe out through your mouth making a “ssssssss” sound. For this contraction,imagine that your abdominal muscles are like a towel that youʼre wringing out.4. While still keeping your stomach muscles sucked in, relax the tension as youbreathe in gently for 3 to 4 seconds.5. Repeat this process until you have completed 10 reps. Do NOT relax your stomachmuscles completely until you have completed all 10 reps.Copyright 2010 by David Nordmark. All rights Reserved.www.animal-kingdom-workouts.comPage 19!
