Book Reviews of Complete Conditioning for Martial Arts (Complete Conditioning for Sports Series)

Book Review: A must read for rapid progress and injury prevention
Summary: 5 Stars

It is not enough to go to class 3 times a week and expect your body to perform at a high level when you need it to. The masters of old trained every day, and with the exercises in this book, you can too, and get even better results.

Read this and you will have the basic, scientific principles of athletic training at your fingertips. You will learn about the basic components of fitness (flexibility, muscular strength, muscular endurance, muscular power, muscle balance, speed, agility, aerobic and anerobic capacity), and how various systems emphasize different aspects of fitness.

Especially important--the joint stabilization exercises. You won't find very many instructors teaching these. I wish I knew these, as I dislocated my shoulder a few times doing judo and kung fu. They will improve your muscle balance and prevent dislocations. I've incorporated them into my workout routine.
