Testimonials
As I read the pages of this book I could see that I had let life get in the way of my health. Pauls story and those he interviewed inspired me to set the alarm half an hour earlier and get up and get moving. Im feeling much better physically but also mentally just by doing a bit of exercise in the morning!
Nik Vorrias
When Paul told me about this book I was very keen to have a read. I too have been doing Taekwon- -Do for quite some time now, 23+ years, and have always been quite fit, well, up until reading this book anyway, but it has made me realise there was room for improvement. This book has inspired me to increase the amount of training and adjust what techniques I use. By following what is in this book I have been able to find more time without it affecting what I need to get done, I feel so much healthier and stronger. Its a great feeling when you are amongst people sometimes half my age that are nowhere near the level of fitness that I am.
John Abdallah
Ive seen many fitness regimes over the years but as a Martial Artist its sometimes difficult in knowing whats right for me. This book provides a great deal of insight into what a Martial Artist needs to do to help them last longer on the floor. The sections of the book dealing with strength and stretching have been a great help to me in helping maintain my conditioning to keep training injury free.
Shawn Sutton
I have played Senior AFL Football for 11 years and have been put through some hard fitness programs over the years. I felt as though I had reached the peak of my fitness until I started this program. When using this program, I found that my fitness level and strength was able to reach another level!
Scott Hamill
