While performing isotonic exercise, the muscle length is shortened with constant tension or weight. On the other hand, while ...

Other exercise programs (isometric and isotonic exercises) have the potential to decrease pain while continuing sport activities [Kongsgaard, 2010; Naugle 2012]. The aim of this study was to compare ...

Here, the muscles are contracting isometrically to hold this gymnast in the crucifix position and are not changing length. When the isometric contractions end, isotonic contraction will occur.

The purpose of this study was to compare an acute bout of either isometric or isotonic muscle contractions on patellar tendon pain and function and maximal voluntary isometric leg extension torque.

Here, the muscles are contracting isometrically to hold this gymnast in the crucifix position and are not changing length. When the isometric contractions end, isotonic contraction will occur.
