Fitness Drills for Martial Artists
The Practical Training Manual for Coaches, Instructors, and Dedicated Fighters
Training in martial arts requires more than technique. Strength, mobility, reaction speed, explosiveness, and endurance determine how effectively strikes, kicks, throws, and evasive movements truly perform.
This book delivers a complete system of 69 field-tested drills, specifically designed for coaches, instructors, and ambitious martial artists.
Whether in solo practice, partner training, small groups, or full teams—each drill is clearly explained, immediately applicable, and highly scalable. Ideal for Ju-Jitsu, Kickboxing, MMA, Karate, Taekwondo, Kali/FMA, Grappling, and self-defense systems.
