gingersi will become famous soon enough



i got the bruce lee books a while ago- the ones mentioned above.

didn't think much to them really.

i did get a book lately called COMPLETE KICKBOXING

i must say very good- goes into many aspect of martial arts (it is essentially thai boxing)

some good tips on working angles and the proper use and execution of the low (cut) kick.

what i especially like is that it adheres to the KISS principle of martial arts - we all know that the simple techniques executed with good timing and power are far superiot to the flashy jumping spinning stuff!!!!- as far as effectiveness in combat anyway.

dont get me wrong- the more flambouyant kicks are fun
