Isometrics are awesome because you can force contractions at any range of motion. Instead of adding speed and movement when a muscle isn't firing, hold still and force it to fire. This is like laying the foundation for future movement.

when you cant feel it, hold it
Since my daily work resembles mobility and strength, it is imperative I actually FEEL the target muscles working. I.e. this is not a 3 rep max squat where I need to move as much weight as far as possible. Im building control, stability, strength, and muscle - in that order. This morning I wanted to bail from two movements i couldn't feel and suspected my legs locking up from the effort before I ran across a great idea. If you cant work it, hold it.
