    EP 014: Isophit & Isophit MSK

    Pros:
    basic strength benefits, strong muscles, stronger ligaments, strong tendons, increase rom, more efficient mitochondria, absolute max strength TUT, restraints, decrease inflammation/BP, joint pain mitigation, safe challenges (safer than traditional lifting)
    Cons:
    hypertrophy, size, no eccentric contraction (less inflammation)
    Uniqueness:
    Combo joint actions, multiple planes, motor patterns, order of operation, exercises that can do on other machines/devices
    Recommendation:
    try 3-4x sessions, 10sec. cp, 20-45sec. glycolysis, 20s strength, 30-40s tendon/ligaments, 45s-2min. endurance

    Benefits:
    force matching - level/ability/strength adjusted (sub-consciousness), combos, restraints
