5.0 out of 5 stars 3rd in series, 25 Feb 2004

By A Customer

For anyone like me who was a tad confused about where this fits in amongst Pat's other books, this is book three. Combat Kick Boxing is book two (about self defence in street situations) whereas A Framework for Success is book one (beginner/intermediate). A great book for someone who knows how to punch and kick but now needs to learn how to read a fight, assess their opponent or launch a nasty knockout combination. Contains knowledge gained through years of experience.

5.0 out of 5 stars Well worth the Money, 30 Dec 2003

By	P. Griffin (UK) - See all my reviews

Definitely a book to work with/through. I found his approach fresh and inspirational. The book is split into the following sections: "Advanced Kick Boxing Techniques", "Tactics and Ringcraft", "The Game Plan", "Deconstructing the Champion" and "The Structure for Success". I have studied Martial Arts for many years, and am therefore VERY picky when it comes to buying a new book. But I can recommend this one. He has achieved an excellent balance between both text and photographs. In the early technical sections, (which cover over half of the book), he describes fully how he would employ these techniques, against what type of opponent and the physical / psychological effect that it should cause. All written in a clear and concise manner. The action photographs in themselves not only demonstrate these techniques, but offer other insights as well. The later sections also prove to be an invaluable read. His classification of 5 "Fighting Types" and the strengths and weaknesses of those styles is excellent. All the techniques and insights contained within this book have been presented in a manner that encourages you to look at your current level of skill in an honest manner, and how you can progress to become a more rounded fighter. I was so impressed with this book that I am going to now have a look at his previous books. Well worth the money.

5.0 out of 5 stars an essential read , 31 May 2007

By	Andy Olsen (Newcastle) - See all my reviews

I could leave it at the title, but that wouldn't do the book justice. So instead I'll outline why it's an essential read, and why I read it from cover to cover in the space of two days. The book could only have been written by an expert, and his credentials speaks volumes. He is a British and American team coach, and chief instructor at two related martial arts.
I started kickboxing about 15 months ago, and bought the first book in the series "kickboxing: a framework for success", as a background. I have used it as a reference, and have been to identify faults thanks to the book (although to be fair, I have a superb instructor as well, which helps!). I feel it helped me grately make the transition from boxing to this art, something I worried I would have trouble doing. The book did indeed give me the framework, and this meant I could trust the author to help me take it further. And trust me, he has been able to do this.
The focus of the follow up shifts to more combinations, which begin as a counter to well known and basic moves from the opponent. I can't wait to try these out at my next sparring session. His chapter on gameplans is superb. Again, I look forward to putting these into practise against fighters who employ various styles.
More than this, I am well aware that I can consult the book in the future, and it will give me pointers and possible remedies to any difficulties I will encounter as I go to a higher level in both belts and competitions.
It really is as simple as: if you want to be a better practioner of the sport and art, you will buy this book.
