The games were visually presented isometrically Diablo-style, and combat was turn-based. From Wordnik.com. [5 brilliant games you’ll never get to play] Reference
Let us stimulate a muscle and allow its tension to develop isometrically until it has reached a maximum. From Wordnik.com. [Archibald V. Hill - Nobel Lecture] Reference
Another set of drawings focus on words and letters such as SLUMBER LORD and GRACIOUS HOST that become Teplin's eccentric, isometrically spaced rooms. From Wordnik.com. [Boing Boing] Reference
Xavier Rynne replies: It would be facile to accept Professor Delzell's suggestion that the 1937 date for "Non abbiamo bisogno" was a typo since one and seven are so isometrically close. From Wordnik.com. [Luther Loves Lucy] Reference
This "twitch-reflex", recorded isometrically by the myograph, exhibits a tension proportional to the number of motor units engaged, in other words to the size of the single centrifugal impulse volley. From Wordnik.com. [Sir Charles Sherrington - Nobel Lecture] Reference
This and similar examples can be bypassed by the additional reasonable requirement that the relevant extensions to consider are maximal, i.e., cannot be further extended in the sense of being isometrically embeddable as a proper subset of a larger spacetime. From Wordnik.com. [Time Machines] Reference
The snow half covered us, its blue-white crystals absorbing the crimson as it seeped from my shoulder, its colour spreading and diluting, blood-red, rose-red, paling to rust beside his face as he lay motionless, resisting my force isometrically as I brought pressure against his hold. From Wordnik.com. [The Sinkiang Executive]
Also, the exercises I mentioned work the lower back isometrically, giving it more stability. From Wordnik.com. [digg.com: Stories / Popular] Reference
This is fine for plan view, but when I cut a section or view it isometrically it displays round which is not acceptable. From Wordnik.com. [All Discussion Groups: Message List - root] Reference
Could it just be isometrically exercising, say, your chest muscles by pressing your palms together hard and holding it for a whaile?. From Wordnik.com. [Seth's blog] Reference
Snapshots previously obtained from isometrically activated vertebrate striated muscle revealed a wide range of attachment angles in projections. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
We have shown multiple myosin head structures in isometrically contracting muscle consistent with both weak binding and force producing cross-bridges. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
In isometrically contracting muscle, not only are there many strongly bound heads, but there is an external load to prevent the fibers from shortening. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
I'll sip my bubbly water, isometrically tone my calves and hope like heck that I can make my youngest daughter good and nervous before it's her turn to learn how to drive. From Wordnik.com. [The Union - All Categories] Reference
We know from electromyographic research that healthy back muscles can generate more than 75 percent of their maximum contraction force isometrically - this means without any movement of the spine. From Wordnik.com. [CITIZEN-TIMES.com - News] Reference
We used multivariate data analysis to group repeat segments in electron tomograms of isometrically contracting insect flight muscle, mechanically monitored, rapidly frozen, freeze substituted, and thin sectioned. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
Our results show that two-headed cross-bridges exist in isometrically contracting muscle even without stretch which shows directly that this mechanism for adapting to stretch is mechanically feasible in active IFM. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
Figure 5, gave a mean angle of 93°±20° for the strong binding cross-bridges, nearly perpendicular to the filament axis and in good agreement with values that were found to fit the meridional X-ray reflection from isometrically contracting vertebrate muscle fibers. From Wordnik.com. [PLoS ONE Alerts: New Articles] Reference
When doing a front lever (which mechanically is what your doing to paste your feet onto a steep wall) your core contracts isometrically to keep your spine stable / stiff while your Latissimus Dorsi, Long head of triceps, Pector group and Trapezius all act to lever your body from the shouder girdle (glenohumeral and scapulothoracic joints).
