The term "Dynamic Isometrics" has been applied to this action: Take hold of a strap with both hands close together in front of you and perform an isometric, applying pressure in opposite directions. While maintaining pressure, slide your hands away from each other for a short distance, stop and perform another isometric. Continue on this way, until you have reached a final location with both hands for a final isometric.
The term "Iso-Motion" has been applied to this action: Compress or pull apart a yielding isometric device to a particular position. While maintaining pressure to hold the device at that position, move your arms in the same various directions.
So, do either of you accept these terms as apt names for these two isometric techniques?

Well then could you come up with terms that would closely describe the dynamics of each technique?

teehee? That's what you'd name Dynamic Isometrics?
Or is this what you would name it - "the belt exercises can be a really effective method of exercise though"?

But what if a strap or a rope is used instead of a belt? And, "Belt Exercises"? A number of exercises aside from isometrics can be done with a belt.

I wasn't answering your question about what to call it. I was replying in response to the actual video that I replied to on Youtube. Well, I'm asking you if you know of a word that means "Taking hold of a strap or any other thin, long, flexible implement, with both hands close together in front of you and performing an isometric, applying pressure in opposite directions. While maintaining pressure, sliding your hands away from each other for a short distance, stopping and performing another isometric. Continuing on this way, until you have reached a final location with both hands for a final isometric."

When I first seen that Primal Punch video months ago I was thinking, "Why the heck does he keep looking behind him, ". I was waiting for something to happen to the guy. Bruce, the first video I would say that is either isometric stops or it's super slow motion exercise. It's like when people say dynamic tension. Tension is tension, it's not magical and nothing dynamic about it. Some exercises there is no reason to put a name to them. I don't see anything wrong with Bullworkers, I've tried one in the past. But I don't get the motion stuff he's doing with it. He's not keeping constant tension the whole time.

Jack, the whole point of this thread is that Bruv and mikey have been nit-picking names given to those two isometric protocols to death. I mean continuously. It's as though if anyone here uses the same names, we're suddenly in league with JP. And since they are so adamant about this, I just want to know if either of them can come up with alternative names that would aptly describe those exercises.
Personally, I don't care what they're named. And if the two known Internet guys who have put together numerous videos have elected to name what they're demonstrating the names that they have, then that's just fine with me. As long as everybody's on board (here and Fitness people across the Internet who are familiar with John Hughes and What's-his-Name) and everyone knows what I'm talking about when I talk about Iso-Motion and Dynamic Isometrics, then I'm just fine with those terms.
What's his name, anyway? Every time I try to catch it, it sounds like, "Brown fudge, here."
Well, the idea is to maintain the constant tension. It would be pretty hard to keep it exact while moving around. You don't get the motion stuff? It's essentially self-resistance with yielding isometrics thrown in.

Dynamic Isometrics are my favorite form of exercise. Truly a mode of exercise whose time has come.

Dynamic Isometrics are my favorite form of exercise. Truly a mode of exercise whose time has come. I have found that Dynamic Isometrics have enabled me to find my inner strength and to be able to cope with the tumultuous and fast changing times we live in.
