Remember to relax your breathing when holding the contraction and only do to your ability. For any hold involving leg lower, simply do not lower as much and perform lower push up on knees if needed.
Make these Isometric Exercises as challenging as you possibly can!
I hope you all feel amazing after this workout!!
