Eccentric Quasi-Isometrics (EQI’S)

This technique forces you to hold the bottom—or the hardest part—of an exercise for an extended duration of time (usually 30 seconds to 2 minutes). In this case I did it for 3 minutes. Doing so restores your working muscles to their natural, resting length. It also builds stability and strength at extreme joint angles where you need it most. . . I especially like to use this more to help a client build awareness in certain ranges and as a rehab tool. Additionally a great way to build up your big lifts in the ranges that are troubling you. . . .
