Answer 1

The correct answer is- isometric exercise

Step-by-step explanation:

Isometric exercise also called static strength training which requires contraction of a particular muscle group. In isometric exercise, the joints do not move and the length of the muscle does not change noticeably.

Squat and lateral arm hold are the example of isometric exercise. Isometric exercise improves the strength of a particular muscle or group muscle for example squat helps in building leg muscles.
