TYPES IN ONE

OVERCOMING ISOMETRICS
“Trying to move an immovable object with the maximum effort. CONCENTRIC force at its highest level.”
One of the most powerful and efficient training methods to improve maximum strength, power and neuromuscular proficiency without any kind of stress on joints. This type of isometrics is mostly underrated in Fitness and Sport Performance industries because of the absence of a versatile and functional product in the market… until now! ZeroRM® ISO-Rack Strap is specifically designed to give for the first time a functional, comfortable, versatile and portable support to overcoming isometrics training.
THE “COMMON” HOLDING ISOMETRICS
“To hold a load and aim to resist ECCENTRIC forces, maintaining a stabilized static position with the entire body.”
The most common kind of static contraction training. A great tool to generate both myofibrillar or sarcoplasmic hypertrophy, as well as being useful for rehabilitation processes. With ZeroRM Strap you can give a support to this type of isometric contraction imparting medium-high force intention(non-maximum), or even realize hybrid isometric exercises combining Overcoming and Holding stimulus in one single set.
DYNAMIC ISOMETRICS
“A prolonged stop is maintained at a specific angle with some joints while a dynamic movement is produced by others joints.”
Dynamic Isometrics are a great and intense form of training in which the intention is to stabilize one part of the body while moving, in a smooth or explosive way, another part, with or without the use of additional loads. With ZERO RM tools you can perform a wide spectrum of exercises based on this powerful kind of isometric approach.

TRAINING
BENEFITS
MAXIMUM STRENGTH WITHOUT WEIGHTS
Thanks to the “stop effect” generated using your own bodyweight, you can have the hardest strength training ever without needing any heavy weight tool around. With ZERO RM you can perform maximum force versus an immovable resistance and this is the highest strength stimulus you can experience.
MUSCLE GROWTH
You can impact muscle growth adaptation directly by performing isometrics exercises on long TUTs (Time Under Tension). You can also work indirectly on hypertrophy, by optimizing your traditional weight sessions with a pre-workout isometric activation or increasing your maximum strength with specific overcoming isometric sessions.
STRESS-FREE FOR JOINTS
Isometrics exercises, regardless of the intensity you choose to work with, are THE safe and analgesic way to build Strength. A great tool to compensate or limit the stress on joints if you are used to severals traditional lifting weekly sessions or if you usually train and compete in a specific sport which is highly demanding for joints and tendons.
CORE AND HIP STABILITY
During isometric exercises you will be able to constantly check and fix your core and hip positioning and stability to optimize your objectively force production on them.
This will improve not only your isometrics exercises itself, overcoming and yielding, but it will also transfer improvement on traditional dynamic exercises.
The better you engage the core and stabilize the hip, the stronger and more powerful you are producing force in a functional and integrated way.
INSTANT FEEDBACK
Overcoming isometric exercises will give you instant feedback on your neuromuscular activation, your core function and your general posture awareness, during and also after your training session. This can lead to a better training performance and, as every relevant training, to a consequent direct impact on your day mood.
NEUROMUSCULAR EFFICIENCY
Neuromuscular efficiency is defined as the ability of the nervous system to properly recruit the correct muscles to produce/reduce force as well as dynamically stabilize the body’s structure in all planes of motion. High load lifts (together with ballistic plyometric exercises) are recognized as the best tools to improve neuromuscular efficiency, so Overcoming Isometrics fully fit in this category due to the maximum force production you can generate with.
ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE
Every athlete has his own specific physical conditioning needs and specific Sport dynamics to constantly improve in order to be better. ZeroRM Isometric exercises support strength and power development, maximizing the concentric action of muscles, with a direct impact on potential speed development. Furthermore, it’s a great tool to work specifically and optimize “frames” of all relevant dynamics that the Athlete is used to performing during his games or matches.
i.e. To work isometrically a motion point of patterns as a Boxing cross punch, a Tennis backhand or a JiuJitsu guard.
ALTERNATIVE CARDIOVASCULAR TRAINING
Even though during overcoming isometrics exercises (and isometrics exercises in general) you are not performing a mechanical and dynamic work, muscles of the body work together so hard for a certain time, driving to a high metabolic activity that results in a demanding cardio-respiratory workout as well as muscular.
MAXIMUM MUSCULAR FIBERS AND MOTOR UNITS RECRUITMENT
Maybe you have already lifted heavy loads during your training journey, but have you ever focused with the intention of moving something immovable? When your force demand gets to a maximum level you can biologically lead to a maximum recruitment of motor units, in terms of number and size, with a consequent better mind-muscle connection and maximum muscle fibers recruitment.
ZERO EGO. MAXIMUM EFFORT.
When you work on maximum effort Overcoming Isometrics, you are NOT able to move that resistance. It is definitely stronger then you, that’s it. Nevertheless, you ‘fight’ with pure power, strength and overcoming intent, “trying” to move it, still on that position and joint angle. You focus without conditioning(or obsession) for the final outcome, which normally cause compensations or injuries during maximal or sub-maximal traditional lifts.
Training isometrics with ZERO RM is that moment in which your EGO is neutral and silent but your EFFORT and INTENTION are MAXIMUM. As a consequence, it makes you both stronger and humbler facing challenges.

BENEFITS
CORRECTIVE EXERCISES AND POSTURE IMPROVEMENT*
Corrective exercises aim to fix muscle imbalances, neuromuscular skeletal dysfunction or movement compensations to improve the overall quality of our biomechanics during training sessions and everyday life. With ZeroRM you can focus on static posture improvements as well as dynamic biomechanics improvements by corrective exercises based on prolonged isometric contractions in a low-medium intensity approach that will allow you to work analytically on your needs.
* DISCLAIMER: ZeroRM tools are NOT medical devices but just tools to make the “Isometric Training” methods accessible and comfortable in order to enjoy their benefits and outcomes. Any corrective process or treatment must ALWAYS be coordinated and supervised by a qualified professional.
REHABILITATION SUPPORT*
When it comes to rehabilitation process, isometric training is one most used tool used by professionals to stimulate strength restoring on their patients, without stressing joints. Furthermore, isometrics are great to gradually reinforce tendons and give them back readiness on mechanical movement. ZERO RM is a totally rehab-friendly tool, versatile and complete to support customized strength and mobility restoring programs.

MOBILITY, STRETCHING AND DECOMPRESSION TOOL
Joint mobility and stretching are key points for a holistic and sustainable training journey. ZERO RM can support your mobility and stretch, thanks to the multiple loops you can use to better guide and extend your movements ranges and transitions. It can also help on opening and decompressing joints by a smooth and prolonged pulling force from the extremities.
LOW-MEDIUM INTENSITY SAFE STRENGTH TRAINING
Let’s say it! Even if Strength it’s the most important physical conditioning quality we can train and improve as humans during our life to stay in great health, we can’t always go 100% with it. Whether it is due to an injury, a momentary joint weakness, a limiting disease or old age, to go safe and moderate with strength work is an important requirement. Even if it’s primarily designed and conceived for maximum force stimulus, ZERO RM is actually the best tool to have strength training in a safe and soft approach when needed.
