Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Isometric exercise involves applying force to an immovable object, such as pushing against a wall or holding a yoga pose, without any movement of the joints. Isokinetic exercise involves exerting force through a full range of motion at a fixed speed, while isotonic exercise involves using resistance to move a joint through a full range of motion. Dynamic exercise involves movement and typically involves a combination of isotonic and isometric contractions. Therefore, the best choice for this question is A)isometric.
