How to Effectively and Easily Use Isometrics to
Build Strength, Burn Fat, Get Faster and More

Isometrics get a bad rap. Many people think they aren’t worth doing but they are WRONG.

They’re also not the end-all be-all of training. But they do work when properly applied and they work very well.

Think about a squat or deadlift. These are partially isometric exercises. More muscle is firing in your abdominals and back isometrically to support your structure, then in the muscles that are actually moving you up and down. The same holds true with one arm presses and just about every exercise under the sun.

So those that say isometrics are worthless don’t even understand what’s going on in most exercises.

That’s just one example. The truth is there are many different kinds of isometrics and the kind you use will depend on your goals.

What do Steve Justa, Alexander Zass, The Mighty Atom, Dennis Rogers, The Great Gama, John Brookfield, Paul Anderson and Myself All Have in Common?

We’re All Big Believers in Isometrics and Have the Strength to Back it Up.

And the truth is that’s a very small list of who has successfully used isometrics in the past and today. That is because they WORK.

I’ve probably spent more time then just about anyone else alive experimenting with all forms of isometrics.

For the first time I unveiled all that I’ve learned and discovered at the recent second ever Super Human Training Workshop.

Apply Isometrics to Any Lift or Exercise You’re Doing,

You’ll become faster. You can watch example after example on the DVD’s of that occurring with presses, snatches, and sled pushes.

You’ll find how you can work outside the normal range and plug up the holes in your training.

Here’s what some of the people that were there live said about this Isometrics training:

“I learned the many uses of Isometrics and a plethora of ways to use them. My favorite iso lesson was using them in conjuction with kettlebells and how to improve/break through sticking points and making weak points stronger.” – Ryan Pitts

“I learned how using isometrics can skyrocket my strength & help me to develop strength that will carry me into my old age. I can also apply these techniques to work around injury.” – Laurel Blackburn

“The isometrics portion was awesome. After doing the wall sit isometrics w/ the isometric pulls under Bud’s tutelage I pressed the Beast almost effortlessly.” – Eric Guttmann

“I got a 24kg press (with slight support from the other hand).” – Melody Scheonfeld

“Great ideas for strengthening my max KB press and getting thru sticking points. My goal of 28kg press seems much more possible.” – Adrienne Harvey

“The isometrics segment gave me plenty of “ammunition” to add to my Strength-Worx class, which utilizes strategies from Bud and from Louie Simmons” – Frank Dimeo

“I have trained with Isometrics before in the past obviously & knew only 3 variations from what Bud was teaching over there, but he blew me away with the info he shared because he opened my eyes to completely NEW & UNTOUCHED levels of possibilities in Isometric Training! Which I’ve been incorporating into my own training since I got back & have seen some CRAZY & PHENOMENAL results from already!” – Matti Marzel

I just got through watching Bud Jeffries EXTREME POWER with Isometrics and must say I’m impressed. The man knows his stuff when it comes to Strength, Weight loss and Conditioning. Bud explains where he stands on the use of Isometrics, where they have their place, how they can be used to build more power in certain positions of an exercise, how they can help build muscular endurance as well as a variety of ways to use incorporate them in to your training. Bud explains everything in a very simple and easy format that anyone can follow. It is my opinion that anyone interested in taking their training to another level should order this 3 disc set. It has something to offer everyone from the beginner to the advanced trainee like myself. So go “Old-School” and try this out, you won’t be dissapointed. – Mike “The Machine” Bruce
