A static hold is a sort of isometric muscular contraction that involves holding a posture for an extended period of time without moving. This is when a muscle contracts but does not move.
When we go to the gym, we are bombarded with various weightlifting routines that use a variety of strategies to work out. And, of course, most of these workouts require you to move which makes sense. How can you break down and grow muscle if you don't move your muscles?
Static holds, often known as isometric exercises, are the solution. This training strategy has a proven track record of producing results and pushing muscles in novel and beneficial ways. Add in the barbell, which allows for the usage of big weights, and you've got a one-way ticket to a godlike body.
There are several training regimens to select from when it comes to carving out massive, intimidating slabs of muscle. However, static holds are unlikely to be in your arsenal.
When done correctly, increasing muscular tension without moving your limbs is one of the secrets to unlocking some goddamn holy swolism that'll have you going up a t-shirt size or three in no time.
Pulling or pushing against immovable objects, or even resisting weights at precise joint angles, is an effective strategy to build size and strength.
When you lift weights, your muscle fibers must contract in order for you to move.
Whether it's a deadlift, squat, or tricep extension, movement occurs when your muscle fibers contract and 'pull' against one other.
Your brain initiates the contraction, which then sends electrical impulses through your neural system, over multiple neuron paths, and finally arrives to the muscle as a chemical signal.
This then smacks your fibers in the face and tells those muthaf*ckers to get out of bed and work.
Muscle contraction is the end effect.
But how exactly?
Within each muscle, two protein filaments wrap around each other like strands of thread to form a rope. They are found throughout the muscle in compartments known as sarcomeres.
Your muscle is made up of sarcomeres that are stacked side by side, above and below each other.
When the signal to contract arrives to the muscle, the two filaments pull against each other. This shortens each sarcomere one at a time, causing the whole muscle to contract.
