Sports. Most sports can be characterized as forms of isotonic exercise. Cycling, swimming, basketball and racket sports all put your joints through various ranges of motion using gentle to moderate stress. Likewise, activities of daily living, such as walking, climbing stairs and gardening, involve isotonic movements including stretching, reaching or bending.
Isometric exercises, also known as static strength training, involve muscular actions in which the length of the muscle does not change and there is no visible movement at the joint (1). The term 'static contraction training' is sometimes used to describe isometrics.However, 'contraction' signifies a change in length (shortening) of the muscle belly, which does not occur during static strength training. The term 'static action' is preferred to static contraction.oth submaximal and maximal isometric muscle actions can increase isometric strength (2,3,4) and induce muscular hypertrophy (5,6). In practice, maximal isometric exercises are used for strength and conditioning and submaximal exercises are used for rehabilitation (1).
