Luke Richardson on his third week of Yielding Isometrics, which means pausing at a specific height on the eccentric (downward) portion of the lift.
These are a great protocol to run in a 3 week block, if you try them focus on form over weight, but don't be afraid to push them and holding 5-2 seconds. Isometrics increase strength 15° above and below the specific joint angle, and can increase strength upto 15% in this area.
Broken down, that means it's a great exercise to break through sticking points on lifts as making your weakest area stronger will improve the whole lift.
