Isometric
Definition:
(a.) Alt. of Isometrical
Example Sentences:

(2) It may, however, be useful to compare local wall dynamics in the more isometrically-contracting basal segment with those in the middle portion which brings about most of the emptying of the ventricle.
(3) The power spectrum of the EMG was analyzed during isometric contractions of the shoulder muscles.
