Reviews

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. Ian's approach to the 'noble art' is the same as his approach to life; a down-to-earth, non-nonsense view supported by superior levels of intelligence and humility. Those of us who have been lucky enough to train under Ian have marveled 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. -- Terry Barnett, Top JKD, Panantukan and Eskrima instructor 'Ian Oliver, FHM's 'Fighting Dad', really knows his stuff!' - FHM magazine Also recommended by top martial artists Larry Hartsell, Bob Breen and Rick Faye.
