How does one skip rope, work the pads, or avoid nipple rash? If you think that boxing would be a fun way to get fit, this would probably be a useful book for you. The reader will gain insight into bagwork, padwork, and boxing drills--from beginner to advanced. However, it does offer useful tips in a concise form. The same is true of safety tips. I liked the approach of this book. While it shows one the age-old practices of fighters, it also describes more recent developments. Graphics include black and white photographs throughout a few diagrams. Most chapters have photographs, and they are generally sufficient to convey the necessary information without being overwhelming. While this is a book of the basics, I found it to be a beneficial read and I appreciated the way it was arranged and the way information was conveyed. Jul 09, Sparklybright rated it liked it. Good circuit ideas for workouts at home. Not very informative on the technical elements though. Too basic on the techniques. Oct 27, Tomson Titus rated it liked it.

Also to my good friend Savash Mustafa Doctor of Osteopathy for his kind assurance that the training regimes contained within are not life threatening. Grateful acknowledgements must also go to Emma Cahill, Pete Drinkell and my good friend and colleague Wayne Rowlands who made this book a reality instead of a possibility; and to Sally and Cheryl, whose constant moaning forced my hand. Respect and special thanks go out to Bob Breen, Terry Barnett, Gordon McAdam and Alex Turnbull, from all of whose motivational classes I borrowed so heavily, and still continue to do so. A word of warning It almost goes without saying that a book on boxing training will involve some vigorous and demanding physical effort. If you have any concerns about your health then I must stress the importance of getting clearance from your doctor If you Boxing Fitness: A Guide to Get Fighting Fit not participated in any training before, or not for some time, then start gradually, always taking the easier options and limiting the training times. You should, and my fervent hope is that you will, enjoy your exercise. Never forget that you have the rest of your life to get fit. IV Note from Terry Barnett A practical book on boxing fitness is long overdue in the martial arts world and Ian Oliver is eminently qualified to produce such a guide. Those of us who have been lucky enough to train under Ian have marvelled at his wealth of knowledge and his ability to express and share his experiences. He has the ability to make the complex seem simple and is constantly adding to his seemingly endless repertoire of drills. Those reading this book who know Ian will not be surprised at the quality of what is to follow. Those who have never met him should prepare themselves for a wonderful journey of discovery. This is a must have for every martial arts book collection. Here theory and practice fight it out on a nightly basis. Part poetry of movement, part brutality, the lure of boxing to modern man is very strong. Here one can test oneself in ritual conflict, and for many even light sparring can be a rite of passage. The training is wholesome and complete, building lean bodies and, most often, minds devoid of aggression and fear. I find it incredible that some sort of boxing, perhaps of a less destructive nature, isn't part of the sports curriculum in all schools.
