This book provides innovative conditioning programs for fighters and martial artists of all skill levels, both competitive and non-competitive. The programs focus largely on calisthenic workouts, but also incorporate drills to improve cardiovascular endurance, footwork, speed, and coordination. Backed by empirical research into kinesiology and tailored to the specific conditioning needs of the competitive fighter, the Fighter's Mind / Fighter's Body training system builds physical and mental skills that are essential to good fighting.
Being a self-defense instructor, MMA practitioner, and boxer, I would highly recommend this guide to any serious martial artist who wants to improve his game. |
Best training book I have seen!

WOW!
This book has it all, from fundamental training philosophies to advanced conditioning techniques!
The book is broken up into well established sections that really guide you. First from understanding and creating an effective training system tailored to your style and skills. With the later chapters advancing you through higher skilled level exercises as well encompassing all aspects of training such as exercise, mental conditioning, to rest, and nutrition.
I doubt you will find a book that has as many different training drills and exercises anywhere.
This one is a must for all serious Martial Artists.

| As an avid runner, I have incorporated several of the exercises decribed in this book in my daily training routine. I have noticed drastic results in my core strength. I highly recommend this book for anyone who is looking to try new exercises or looking to improve technique. |
