Joints hurt during exercise? Try this!

If exercising hurts your joints, isometrics are an effective, simple way to train your body. The lack of movement allows you to use greater pain-free force than you normally would - building more strength and muscle!

Isometrics can build muscle, by the way. There's no reason they can't. The studies that show lack of hypertrophy usually have very low-intensity exercises that wouldn't build much muscle even if they were dynamic. OR they are done at such low volume that the metabolic stress required is not present.

I like combining isometrics with full range of motion at lower intensity. Sometimes MUCH lower intensity if needed!

However, some people are unable to do reasonably do full ROM even when heavily assisted. Start with what you can and work your way up!

Take your time. Patience matched with consistency can yield great long term results!
