Book Reviews of Krav Maga: An Essential Guide to the Renowned Method--for Fitness and Self-Defense

Book Review: Excellent starting point for those interested in Krav Maga
Summary: 5 Stars

I was new to Krav Maga when I decided to buy David's first book, and I have to say that it provided a very strong foundation in Krav Maga theory and practice. For those seeking an introduction to the core essentials of Krav Maga, as only the IKMA can deliver, as well as some vital history, then this book is a must have. It will have you on your way to being more prepared and more confident in the event of a violent attack. For me, this book has been a catalyst in discovering a part of myself and setting me on my way to a life connected to Krav Maga.

Summary of Krav Maga: An Essential Guide to the Renowned Method--for Fitness and Self-Defense

Master the moves of krav maga--the international self-defense and fitness sensation

Increasingly popular around the world, krav maga is the renowned hand-to-hand defense system designed by the Israeli military forces. Swift, powerful, and simple, it is an effective method for fending off any kind of attacker--and it is also an amazing workout.

Regardless of size, strength, and fitness level, anyone can master the essentials of krav maga--and reap the rewards of increased safety, confidence, and conditioning. With moves you can learn in as little as five minutes, or train and practice for long-term success, Krav Maga will show you how to:

*Protect your body's vulnerable targets
*Use an opponent's momentum to fuel your counterattack
*Escape all kinds of grips and holds
*Combine training punches, kicks, and other moves into a powerful conditioning workout---to lose weight, increase core strength, and improve muscle tone
*Use specially designed drills and a 12-week training program to become a kravist---a smart and prepared fighter

Written by one of America's foremost krav maga experts, this exciting new guide opens the door to an empowering and important set of skills that you or anyone can master.
