  2. Isometric exercise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isometric_exercise

    Isometric exercise. The 'plank' is a type of isometric hold which can intensively activate the body's core musculature. The 'side plank' is a variation designed to strengthen the oblique muscles. An isometric exercise is an exercise involving the static contraction of a muscle without any visible movement in the angle of the joint.

  3. Isometric projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isometric_projection

    Graphical projection. Isometric projection is a method for visually representing three-dimensional objects in two dimensions in technical and engineering drawings. It is an axonometric projection in which the three coordinate axes appear equally foreshortened and the angle between any two of them is 120 degrees.

    isometric may mean: Isometre, a rhythmic technique in music. Isometric exercise, a form of resistance exercise in which one's muscles are used in opposition with other muscle groups, to increase strength, for bodybuilding, physical fitness, or strength training. Isometric video game graphics, a near-isometric parallel projection used in ...

  5. Axonometric projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axonometric_projection

    In isometric projection, the most commonly used form of axonometric projection in engineering drawing, [4] the direction of viewing is such that the three axes of space appear equally foreshortened, and there is a common angle of 120° between them. As the distortion caused by foreshortening is uniform, the proportionality between lengths is ...

  7. Descriptive geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Descriptive_geometry

    Descriptive geometry is the branch of geometry which allows the representation of three-dimensional objects in two dimensions by using a specific set of procedures. The resulting techniques are important for engineering, architecture, design and in art. [1] The theoretical basis for descriptive geometry is provided by planar geometric projections.

  8. Calisthenics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calisthenics

    A full body calisthenics workout that works abdominal muscles, chest, arms, legs, and several parts of the back. The subject squats down and quickly moves their arms and legs into a push-up position. Sometimes, people do a push up (not mandatory) before they finish their rep by tucking the legs in and jumping up. Chin-ups and pull-ups.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiview_orthographic...

    v. t. e. In technical drawing and computer graphics, a multiview projection is a technique of illustration by which a standardized series of orthographic two-dimensional pictures are constructed to represent the form of a three-dimensional object. Up to six pictures of an object are produced (called primary views ), with each projection plane ...
