13/08/2021

Did my ILIT: Impromptu Loadless Isometric Training 3 times, before and after my workout & before my breakfast.

Which are;

1. LOWER LEG ISOTENSION Tense the calves and lower legs hard. (It can be tough to get the knack of this, at first; lifting the heels half an inch off the ground will help.) 1 set of 1-2 seconds

2. THIGH ISOTENSION While standing upright, tense the quadriceps and hamstrings hard. The legs can be either locked, or bent. (You can even perform this seated.) 1 set of 1-2 seconds

3. GLUTEAL ISOTENSION After the thigh tension, tense and squeeze the gluteal muscles together as hard as possible, without moving the hips or thighs. 1 set of 1-2 seconds

4. STOMACH ISOTENSION Smoothly exhale; once the air has left your lungs and the stomach is drawn in, then tense the abdominals hard. There is no need to bend forward. 1 set of 1-2 seconds

5. LATERAL TORSO ISOTENSION Pull the shoulders down in their sockets and tense the lats (under the armpits) hard. You do not need to spread your shoulders out for this drill. 1 set of 1-2 seconds

6. PEC ISOTENSION Pull the shoulders forward in their sockets and tense and squeeze the chest muscles hard. (You don’t need to move your arms much.) 1 set of 1-2 seconds

7. ARM ISOTENSION Holding the arms slightly bent or straight, tense the biceps and triceps hard. You also have the option of making a fist, and tensing your grip. 1 set of 1-2 seconds

My warm up is, with 1kg I do;

100 Zercher Squats

100 Deadlifts

100 Over Head Presses

I tried to have the set up of my Iso-Trainer to be simular to the Iso-Flo with just one buck to adjust the strap amd not sure if it works with the Iso-Trainer or I just need to be adjusted for it. Both Iso-Trainer & Iso-Flo are good both having pros and cons. Though not sure which one to suggest is better.

Dude, your consistency is just insane! Much love! Good luck and I hope you will never lose your motivation to work on yourself.

 

Feel sick today, so I'm not going to workout today hope I'll feel better tomorrow.

 

Sadly I did today as I feel sick. Just feeling awful and aching all over.

 

Have a good recovery!

 

I do wonder if I should of just exercised to keep up the streak. Thinking if it's better to muscle on or if it will cause more issues.

 

60 push ups: 30 in the morning, 30 at night
