The Doorway to Strength: Turn a Door into a Strength-Building Multigym. - Paperback
by Helen Renee Wuorio (Author), Brian Sterling-Vete (Author)
The Doorway to Strength reveals how something as ordinary as a door, doorway, or doorframe can be transformed into a remarkably effective multi-gym, using the versatile Iso-Bow exerciser and the proven power of isometric exercise.
This practical and inspiring book combines a clear, easy-to-understand section on exercise science with a rich ideas resource packed full of some of the most effective isometric exercises you can perform using this simple improvised set-up. From the popular door leg press to powerful shoulder push movements and many more, the exercises are designed to work every major muscle group safely and efficiently.
Each movement is clearly demonstrated with directional arrows showing exactly how and where to apply force, removing guesswork and ensuring maximum results from every contraction. Whether you are training at home, short on space, or looking for a smarter alternative to traditional gym equipment, this system delivers impressive strength gains with minimal fuss.
Ingenious, accessible, and grounded in real exercise science, The Doorway to Strength proves that serious strength training can begin with nothing more than a door-and the knowledge of how to use it properly.
Required Extra Equipment: 2 x Iso-Bows (preferably 4), a solid door, and a door wedge. An interesting and crucial footnote is that the National Health Service (NHS) Innovation Team in Greater Manchester, England, has successfully trialled and deployed the Workout at Work system for employees. The authors, Brian Sterling-Vete and Helen Renée Wuorio, worked closely with the NHS Research and Innovation Team to create a practical and effective system suitable for virtually anyone in any job.Author Biography
