The sport of Full Contact Kickboxing demands the highest degree of technical skill, physical conditioning and intellectual discipline. Athletes must rely on their technical expertise by throwing all kicks above the waist and winning the bout purely with kickboxing techniques. A structured training programme is therefore essential. Full Contact Kickboxing is a comprehensive guide to all aspects of kickboxing training. Combining the expertise of an experienced coach and kickboxing champion, it provides the motivation and techniques needed to make better choices in and out of the ring, and to become a disciplined and successful competitor. Featuring over 380 photographs, this valuable training guide will help readers to swiftly progress and gain a competitive edge. It will be of great interest to all those interested in kickboxing principles, from amateurs to professionals, from boxers to martial artists.
Shingo Fukushima, respected Kickboxing Historian from Japan, reflects on the book as: "... by far the best instructional book on the subject. The book would be a tremendous help for both the complete novice and seasoned pros alike. It just covers everything from the history to the fundamental techniques, training drills and how to design your own training schedule. What the book sets apart it from the classics from the yesteryear is the use of the high-definition photographs." -- Shingo Fukushima
Curtis Bush, 5x World Champion and internationally renowned all-time great of the sport, simply calls our publication: "The best book on Full Contact Kickboxing!" -- Curtis Bush
A book like this will help any Instructor or student to change, modify or improve (or add new) training methods, as it doesn’t just cover the fighting aspect, but also the training. The book is laid out nicely, covers a great deal and whether you practice Kickboxing or not, it will enhance your Taekwon-do, as well as offer Taekwon-do (and of course Kickboxing) Instructors, new idea’s and routines for their Dojang or gym. -- Stuart Anslow, Totally Taekwondo Magazine * Totally Taekwondo Magazine *
