Rating: 5 stars
Summary: great book, great exercises
Review: this is a pretty cool book for those who even just want to use it for stretching exercises. i was struck by how accessible and easy it is to do these moves. also, they are very similar to some yoga moves i have learned in the past. a great buy for those who want to work out at home.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: a hard body for 6.95
Review: Well, you will need to do some aerobic exercise too, but I am always bathed in sweat when I finish these exercises. Even in my mediocre condition, I had noticeable results after three months of training. The shoulder exerises in particular were amazing...my trapezius muscles were quite visible. As other reviewers have stated here, the emphasis is on definition. My forearms were pronounced, and I had ripped triceps. Strength was also improved - an aikido sensei asked me to bend his arm at the elbow during a demonstration, and his comment was " That's good - you're very strong ". Of course I couldn't bend his arm, but looking at this man you would realize he was not doing it on a physical strength basis ( Chi, chi, chi ). This small book gave me better results than any other strength training I have had, at a fraction of the cost. Even the muscle that crosses the shin was popping out! Sifu Wong also has VHS tapes out under the same title. I recommend it to anyone. Minor complaint - some of the exercises were somewhat confusing based on the text and photos.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great book for strength and speed training
Review: Wong's methodology is similar to that of Charles Atlas. This book, however, does not involve someone getting sand kicked in his face. And the techniques are based on dynamic instead of static resistance. Highly recommended.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Get strong in the movements you want to be strong in
Review: You aren't going to look like Arnold S. using this workout, but you will save your joints and improve your power in the specific movements you want to be strong in.

You want a more powerful backfist? Reverse punch? Sweep block? Use dynamic strength exercises to hit the exact muscles involved in these movements.

Not only will you improve your power, but you will gain a greater understanding of your body and karate movements. And don't forget discipline. If you do these hard and for multiple reps and sets, you will develop a strong mental attitude, too.
