In upcoming weeks, I will be doing
boxing book reviews for Doghouseboxing.com. Topics will include
boxing biographies and non boxing ones that have the sport as a
central storyline, boxing history, medicine, (at least) one historic
fight, and even a true crime book!! It is a pleasure to me to get you
the information needed by you in order to obtain these books with
confidence, knowing whether they are what you need or not.
The first book reviewed will be
The
Ultimate Guide To Weight Training for Boxing, Second Edition (ISBN
1-932549-46-3), published in 2006, by Price World Enterprises, all
copyrights held by Robert G. Price, CPFT.
While most of the just-above stated is
yadda-yadaa-yadda, it is necessary that I inform you of that, because
the book makers usually request that we do, and also because it would
make it easier for you to find the book, should it become a rarity.
Also, because this time I just wanna be nice and tell you about it.
The Ultimate Guide to Weight Training
for Boxing should be a common sight, not a rarity, in boxing corners
these days. It explores the myth that weights should not be used in
boxing and educates on how to integrate a weightlifting program into
your daily boxing workouts.
In that way, it is imperative to own a
copy of this book, for parents of young boxers and boxers to-be, for
boxers of all ages and for boxing trainers who are looking into new
training techniques.
The book has detailed narrative of each
of the exercises covered. It leaves no details out. Now, if what you
are looking for as a book about anecdotes, fight results and photos,
this is not it. But if you are a dedicated sportsperson, or if you
care about one in a parental or coaching way, then I highly recommend
it. There are instructions on how to exercise both for men and women,
and many detailed tables that deal with exercise, days you should do
them, repetitions, weight, etc, etc.
This is a well researched book by the
people who brought us the “Ultimate Guide” that includes how to
use weightlifting in Wrestling, Basketball, Baseball (without
Steroids!!), Hockey, Gymnastics, etc.
The book, like all others in the
series, is protected by a soft, colorful front and back cover. It
will definitely feel good in your hands, unlike some other books. The
lettering inside can bore you, but if you are serious about this, it
won’t. In fact, it will keep you exercising to your best potential.
Overall, a very good book!.
