Day 21 - ISO Strength Chisel
Some notes – All moves are 10 reps, followed by a 10 second isometric (ISO) hold. AND you repeat everything twice.... so a total of three sets for every move! This becomes VERY challenging! She does allow for time to stretch before she moves on to the next move.
Sumo Squat – Toes pointed out. Use weights and keep your back straight. Down & up 10 times, then HOLD! Repeat twice. I used 15 pound dumbbells.
Push Up – Simple move, hard to do! :) 10 pushups, followed by holding for 10 seconds in the down position. Repeat twice. I had to do each hold on my knees for all three sets. By the third set, I could not even do the 10 push ups on my feet, had to go down to my knees! This is an improvement from Day 21 in which I performed all of it on my knees!
Split Squat – One foot on the bench and you drop down 10 times on each side, followed by an isometric hold. Repeat twice. This one REALLY burns by the time that you are done! I used 15 pound dumbbells.
Pull Up – Again, simple move, but hard to do! 10 Pull ups, followed by a HOLD at the top for 10 seconds. Repeat twice. I used a resistance band attached to the door. My husband uses the pull up bar.
Step Up Side Hold – In this move, you step up onto the bench with one foot 10 times from the SIDE. Then, you HOLD for 10 seconds with your leg in front of you. Repeat twice. Autumn really likes to keep hammering on those legs!! This one really BURNS! I am holding a 10 pound dumbbell.
One Arm Row – Straightforward, a one arm row with weights. The isometric HOLD is at the top for 10 seconds. Repeat twice. I used an 8 pound dumbbell.
Sit up C- Curve – Situps with a light weight held at your chest. Make sure you keep your chest up. The isometric hold is for 10 seconds in the down position. Repeat twice. I used a 10 pound dumbbell.
Lateral Raise – Light weights for this one! A lateral raise with an isometric hold at the top of the move. Repeat twice. Shoulders really feel the burn! I used 3 pound weights.
ISO Strength Chisel Review:
This is a really TOUGH workout. Even my husband thinks that this one is really tough! The isometric hold is what really makes this difficult. These ISO moves really work!! I felt the burn long after the workout (and this one always makes me pretty sore!) Although drinking Recovery Formula really helps with this! Before Hammer and Chisel, I have never really been one to use this supplement... but I am definitely a believer in this product with this program!!
