A global isometry, isometric isomorphism or congruence mapping is a bijective isometry. Like any other bijection, a global isometry has a function inverse. The inverse of a global isometry is also a global isometry. Two metric spaces X and Y are called isometric if there is a bijective isometry from X to Y.

Bullworker is a product and fitness company that specializes in isometric exercise, that is the static contraction of a muscle without any visible movement.The original portable home fitness device was invented by Gert F. Kölbel in 1962.
In mathematics, the Gelfand representation in functional analysis (named after I. M. Gelfand) is either of two things: a way of representing commutative Banach algebras as algebras of continuous functions; the fact that for commutative C*-algebras, this representation is an isometric isomorphism.
In the area of mathematics known as functional analysis, James' space is an important example in the theory of Banach spaces and commonly serves as useful counterexample to general statements concerning the structure of general Banach spaces.
In mathematical functional analysis a partial isometry is a linear map between Hilbert spaces such that it is an isometry on the orthogonal complement of its kernel. The orthogonal complement of its kernel is called the initial subspace and its range is called the final subspace. Partial isometries appear in the polar decomposition.
The three main types of isometric exercise are isometric presses, pulls, and holds. They may be included in a strength training regime in order to improve the body's ability to apply power from a static position or, in the case of isometric holds, improve the body's ability to maintain a position for a period of time.
Functional Strength Training is a fitness approach designed to enhance the body's ability to perform everyday movements with ease and efficiency. Unlike traditional strength training that isolates specific muscle groups, functional training focuses on exercises that mimic real-life activities, such as lifting , squatting , and climbing .
