And because very few of you have been using them (or using them optimally) everyone who applies the knowledge in this book will get rapid and impressive gains. I have been using isometrics for over 20 years; yet when I read The Ultimate Isometrics Manual I had to read with a note book and pen (yep, I’m old school) because I learned so much new information. It’s a gold mine of practical and theoretical info presented in a clear and fun to read manner.”—Christian Thibaudeau, Strength & Conditioning coach, author, international speaker “The OG of the Old School has done it again! Paul ‘Coach’ Wade, the world's foremost authority on equipment free (or equipment light) training has compiled the most comprehensive, detailed and well-researched literature on isometric training that this planet has ever seen. In classic ‘Coach’ form, Mr. Wade breaks down the science, history, warm-ups, programs and progressions into a single, definitive work of pure power and genius. Whether you're a bodybuilder, street workout aficionado, powerlifter or average Joe, you will find something amazing within these pages. Highly recommended!”—Danny Kavadlo, co-author of Get Strong "I never really thought that "not moving" a muscle while loading it would result in an appreciable amount of strength, hypertrophy or athleticism, but after beginning to implementing high force and maximum tension isometric exercises into my own routine, I've been astounded at what isometrics can accomplish for full body results. I can't recommend The Ultimate Isometrics Manual highly enough for decoding exactly how to use isometrics to enhance your own routine, transform your body and blast your strength through the roof!"—Ben Greenfield, author of Boundless “Resistance to fatigue and stress is a key biological principle of adaptation to hardship, which is essential to the survival of all species. The Ultimate Isometric Manual taps into this principle with the mission to maximize strength along with other benefits of exercise on the body, offering a workout manual that can be used by anyone at any time without the need for a gym space or related equipment. This book fills a void in today’s fitness world which generally lacks true principles.”—Ori Hofmekler, author of The Warrior Diet
