Guest guest Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 Ronn: Glad you liked it. I might also do a worksheet on the Exercises from Ye Olde Englishe Isokinator Pocket Exerciser Manual. ly, despite Cliff Ks remonstrations, I didn't see anything wrong with the Iso-K PE exercise manual and Bert MuscleDesign's Youtubes seem to be based on it. So go figure. Let the marketplace decide as they say. Namaste, TG > > The worksheet is great, Tony -- you did a fantastic job, and I really want to thank you for it!

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 Tony, As far as I understand, Cliff was not criticizing the exercises in the manual, but the explanations of the training. Actually, I was very confused about their use of the term " exercise " and " sets " . On page 13 in the manual, they distinguish between Fitness, Athletic and Rapid Training. Under " Athletic Training " they recommend: " Increase the number of repetitions from 2 sets to 10 sets of exercises " . This is really nonsense, because you should never do 10 sets of any exercise, this would cause overtraining. 7 exercises, each done in 1 or maximum 3 sets of up to 10 repetitions in each set is all you need. Also the advice " Complete each exercise in just 4 seconds " (same page, under " Fitness Training) is misleading, if you think that you should hold the " powerblock " for only 4 seconds, then release it, and then build it up again for the next exercise of 4 seconds. What they probably mean: each REPETITION should take about 4 seconds, but do up to 10 repetitions in one set and keep the powerblock over the entire set, until you can't do another (11th) repetition. You are right, Bertie uses some of the alternative exercises shown in this manual, but he does them in the correct way and he does them as alternatives, not as additional exercises.

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 Jens: Thank you for your comments. I think you've demonstrated how important it is to have a clear and precise comunication. The importance of language is so critical in conveying the proper usage of the Isokinator. Even with a manual supposedly written by an English speaker, there are some murky and confusing areas. That's why I think it would be so AWESOME to have DVDs or YouTubes showing the proper Use, Form, and Posture when using the Iso-K. IMHO, a good Youtube is worth a million words. I love to see Gert and/or Cliff ought make a set of " home made " Youtubes demonstrating the Basic 7 Iso-K exercises. They should really take a good hard look at ' Youtubes and his SAH 90 Day DVD. I'm quite happy to stick with the original 7 basic Iso-K exercises for the time being. However if anyone wants me to, I'd be happy to make an " Alternative " Iso-K worksheet based on whichever exercises are deemed best by a " selection committe " comprised of your good self, Bert MuscleDesign, and perhaps one or two other Iso-K " experts " .
