Originally written as a guide for private students, Forging the Fighter outlines the most effective fighting techniques and principles that every martial artist should know. The book covers topics that include correct fighting posture, footwork, hand techniques, kicking skills, the art of elbow boxing, close range fighting, joint manipulation, ground fighting techniques, self-defense strategies, and training principles. The book also provides a blueprint that can be used to reverse engineer the movements of traditional martial arts forms and extract their true deadly fighting secrets. Forging the Fighter will provide you with the solid foundation needed to develop your own effective fighting skills.
Regardless of what style of martial arts that you study, there are techniques that are effective in a real fight and techniques that are not. Every system of combat has both strong and weak points and ultimately you must find what works for you. My purpose in writing this book is to document the most effective fighting techniques that I have learned in over forty years of training in the martial arts.
It is vital to understand that techniques alone do not win a fight. Other factors such as speed, endurance, strength, reflexes, and mental preparation can often be more important than mere technique. When all things are equal however, the superior technician has a great advantage. The key is to take the most practical skills and drill them until they become second nature. You should be able to execute these moves without thought. If you must think about executing a specific technique, it’s already too late.
This book will cover basic postures, footwork, striking, kicking, grappling skills, strategy, and more. I hope it will become a useful resource of information for people who are interested in practical martial arts skills. If possible, you should seek out a qualified instructor to guide you along your journey. You should also have an open mind and not get caught up in arguments over specific styles and which system is better. Although this manual contains techniques from arts such as, boxing, karate, jiujitsu, arnis, Tang Soo Do, kung-fu, and Judo, I will avoid mentioning styles as much as possible. I prefer to focus on the techniques and not their origin. I hope you enjoy!
