Summary: No surprises here.
Comment: Roughly half of this book simply puts excessive text to the most basic of knowledge.. Pictures were possibly drawn by Master Long himself; far more skilled in Martial Arts than Illustrative Arts. The secret to the Striking area toughening process consists of throwing strikes at a training block. It is likely that you will feel like you could have written this up in a few hours.

Summary: Detailed anatomy only for a few kinds of breaks,conditioning
Comment: The book gives a detailed anatomy explanation, but it only discusses a few kinds of breaks. No speed breaks are dicussed. Focusses on only one way to condition striking surfaces. Fair, worth it for the anatomy lessons allone, with focus on avoiding common errors. How to avoid certain nerves and wrong points of contact for sidekick.
