Effects of short-term isotonic & isometric training on cardiovascular & pulmonary function . A randomised control trial of short-term exercises on specific cardiovascular and respiratory parameters was undertaken in normal male college students . The effects of isotonic training ( 5BX programme ) and isometric training ( a programme of isometric exercises working all major groups of muscles ) were compared with a control group with no specific workout . Both isotonic and isometric training resulted in significant cardiovascular improvement but seemed inadequate to improve vital capacity and flow rates . Isotonic training in addition , improved ventilatory efficiency . It is concluded that such isotonic or isometric training of thrice a week for ten weeks , requiring no equipment , less time and space can be promoted to improve physical fitness .
