So to me, that's the secret sauce, if you're a trainer listening, is because you know the benefits, is learning to integrate it into your regular training. Yes. Because at the end of the day, you have to appease the client, too. At the end of the day, your client has to show back up. You've got to be able to help them. And I don't care if isometrics are the best.

Because in a perfect world, if you think about it, based off the way the research points, it would make sense that almost all programs when someone's getting back into the gym or getting, or getting started for the first time should look very isometric based to begin up. It's the safest brings on the most gains rest, less likely probably to, uh, to overreach too.

I mean, you could still overreach doing it.

But, I mean, this is probably why a lot of the bros continue to work out with your training partner where you had the overcoming isometrics where you give them 315 on the bench press even though he can't hold it. And they just, you know, grinding away on it because they probably saw results. Yeah. They probably saw games.

Didn't you say that someone had to do that? Oh, yeah. I mean, that was both squatting and bench pressing. This is early. I'm like 21, 22, maybe 22 at the latest. And I was training with some old school dudes that were much older than me that took me under their wing. And I just was following their routine. And I remember he's like getting me to squat.

And I'm just like, at that point, bro, I could like squat a plate. That's it. You know what I'm saying? He's like, put 315 on. I'm like, I've never seen two plates, dog. He's like, oh, you'll be fine. Don't worry, I got you. You know what I'm saying? And they get behind me. And same thing for the bench press. Like at that time, it was- And he just had you hold the weights.
