The Amazing Bullworker Story
Gert F. Kobel, Inventor of the Bullworker
If you are interested in Body Building you may have used a chest expander, resistance bands or exercise bands at one time or another.
While you can use the Tensolator, Bullworker like a chest expander, resistance bands or exercise bands, you can also contract the Bullworker.
It is this contraction that makes the Bullworker such an incredible Body Builder and is the reason why the Bullworker has revolutionized the bodybuilding and martial arts industry.
The Bullworker was invented by Gert F. Kolbel. The principle on which they are based is known as Isometric Contraction
The Bullworker over the years has been used by Famous Personalities, such as:
- Arnold Schwarzenegger
- Mohamed Ali
- Bruce Lee
- David Prowse
Isometric Contraction
A contraction in which a muscle exerts force but does not change in length. Isometric contractions are common in activities such as yoga, Pilates and stretching.
Isometric Contraction - Muscle Actively Held at a Fixed Length
A third type of muscle contraction, isometric contraction, is one in which the muscle is activated, but instead of being allowed to lengthen or shorten, it is held at a constant length.
An example of an isometric contraction would be carrying an object in front of you. The weight of the object would be pulling downward, but your hands and arms would be opposing the motion with equal force going upwards. Since your arms are neither raising or lowering, your biceps will be isometrically contracting. Sourced Muscle Physiology
Using Bullworker you can train your body throughout to produce a superb muscular system. Perhaps the most astonishing thing about the Bullworker System is that most of the exercises only last 6-8 seconds : and these exercise don't merely strengthen the muscles : they also strengthen internal organs.
Use 70% of your strength in compressing or Using Isometric Contraction, the mentioned exercise type of the Bullworker on the Bullworker Introduction page, you are able to exercise 300 of the human bodies 500 basic muscles.
Some traditional methods of body building require a considerable amount of effort, using heavy weights and putting in hours of tiring work.
There is no certainty at all that you will get satisfactory results as they are basically every time wasting methods of building muscles. Furthermore your success using these methods depends very greatly upon the amount of will-power you exert.
With the Bullworker the element of chance is greatly reduced.
How the Bullworker develops the three basic types of body
The Abdominal (a compacted rounded shape, few muscles, and a heavy bone structure). With this type of body the Bullworker removes the fatty tissues and increases the muscle substance.
Each week more and more inches are reduced around the stomach, and at the same time the chest measurements expand. Arms and legs gain power. The circulation works more easily. The upper part of the body, instead of being round, becomes V-shaped. And overall endurance is increased..
The Thoracic type (slim with light bone structure, scarcely any muscles, inclined to have a bad carriage). Bullworker exercises increase the muscles and change the shape of the body towards the athletic.
A flat chest becomes deeper, more powerful. Arms and legs grow strong in a way rarely known in this type of body. The carriage, or way you walk, is improved, the result of strengthening back muscles. In addition the circulation is improved and the upper part of the body becomes V-shaped. Endurance with this type of body is also increased.
The Athletic type (slim with a good muscular system). In cases like these you can expect the maximum possible amount of success with Bullworker. Individual groups of muscles can be greatly improved and there can be great strengthening or organic power.
The difference between size of chest and slimness of waist should become even greater. The chest will thrust out noticeably above the line of the stomach. Arms and legs will become more muscular and powerful, the back will become V-shaped, and endurance and resilience will be increased quite remarkably.
The remarkable thing about Isometric Contraction the Bullworker produces is how easy it is. It is extraordinary to think that a once-a-day exercise, lasting only 7 seconds, per muscle group, is enough to stimulate the growth of the muscular system.
The truth of the matter is that whether you exercise for 15 seconds, one minute, or ten minutes per muscle group the growth will probably not be greater than for an exercise lasting 7 seconds!
