This 250+ page book has been approved by TWiEA - The World Isometric Exercise Association (www.TWiEA.com). Currently, the entire range of books written by Brian Sterling-Vete and Helen Renee Wuorio about the Bullworker, isometrics, and other related forms of exercise are the only books to have received this approval together with TWiEA's 5-Star Rating. NOTE: Authors and exercise specialists, Brian Sterling-Vete and Helen Renee Wuorio have worked closely with the NHS Innovation Team at the Greater Manchester Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust on two isometric exercise trials during 2020. The trials were an outstanding success and they are now moving into a third trial phase before looking towards an expansion of the use of isometric exercises into the entire NHS across the UK, and having TWiEA conduct isometric exercise instructor training programmes for key NHS staff. The NHS (National Health Service) is one of the largest health services in the world with over 1.2 million people are employed in the UK by the NHS alone. The Commonwealth Fund, a US think tank, compared health services in 11 countries across the world, including the US, Canada, Australia, France and Germany, and the NHS emerged as the world's number 1 for the second time. We are proud to be working ever more closely with the world's leading healthcare provider to expand the regular performance of isometric exercises for the health and benefit of everyone. Isometric exercise has been a part of almost every system of the martial arts ever devised. Even before isometrics were studied scientifically and modern science-based training techniques were devised they have been taught and practised in one form or another for thousands of years. It was the great Bruce Lee and his love of isometric exercise who ensured that this system would forevermore be famously linked to all types of martial arts training. This book contains a valuable resource of practical isometric exercises designed to build serious strength, muscle and martial arts 'firepower' needed by all types of martial artists. More importantly, isometric exercise builds solid, hard, practical muscle and not the bodybuilder type of bulk that would seriously restrict a martial artist. There are arrows clearly showing the direction in which the force should be applied. One of the authors is recognised as being one of the leading authorities on isometric exercise, isometric exercise science and as a practitioner of several different styles of martial arts for almost 50-years. Among his many awards and accolades, he is a WKA 8th Degree Black Belt and a recipient of a WKA Lifetime Achievement Award. This gives him a unique and extremely valuable insight into science-based strength training and conditioning for the martial arts.Product Identifiers
