Isometric exercises

KelBlundell

Hi all
As I posted before I've sprained my ankle and am suffering exercise withdrawal!

A number of people have suggested isometric exercises.

I'd be grateful if you could recommend isometric videos/guides to help me get started!

When I hurt my knee, I explored everything upper-body:

- Swimming
- Kayaking (rented from a placed that helped me into and out of the kayak)
- Upper-body and core circuit training at the gym and at home with bands
---> Check Popsugar Fitness on YouTube for some good videos

Best of luck!

Ensure you let your ankle heal before you put too much strain on it.
Focus on upper body for the time being.
Pullovers, tricep kickback, bicep curls, sit-ups, crunches.

I'd throw in that unlike gravity-dependent bells, resistance bands are indifferent to gravity and push/pull direction and many of the movements that are normally shown standing can be improvised for a full range of movement at various resistance levels and tempos, seated or even lying down. Bands are relatively inexpensive and worth looking into.
