Physical Preparation
Outlasting your opponent in competition or learning to combat a bigger person under stress requires hard training. You must be physically fit, strong, and powerful. Supplemental strength training in addition to your martial arts training will help you develop the toughness you need to equalize or overcome the power of a bigger opponent. Strength also helps you win in competition and establishes your reputation as a formidable and competent student of the fighting arts. When you are physically unfit, your martial arts techniques become sloppy, slow, and powerless. You should therefore value physical strength and fitness as highly as you value good martial arts techniques. Your supplemental strength training should complement the martial art you are studying; you should never lose focus on the fact that you are training for a combat art and not just for getting into better shape. Formidable Fighter: The Complete Series, a compilation of all 14 books in this series, is available in both electronic and print format.
Hard Hitting, Strong Gripping
Aggressiveness is a strong character trait that is to be embraced as the core value of any respectable martial artist. It is not something to be avoided or ashamed of. Aggressiveness does not equate to cruelty or misuse of skill. Although it is possible for a smaller well-trained and intelligent person to prevail against a bigger and stronger opponent, or against a not-as-smart adversary, it is a tough uphill battle. A force that is strong and focused is difficult to defeat. Willpower and intent to avoid domination by others may therefore be the ultimate live-saving strategy. You will increase your ability to hit hard when you practice hard-hitting impact techniques against dead targets, such as mitts, bags, and boards. But a problem is that dead targets don't hit back. Timing, chaos, and ability to control fear and pain must therefore be practiced against a resisting partner who returns the offense. Whether training for competition, a general education on the fighting arts, or realistic combat at close range, to gain an edge, you must train with intent and intensity. Formidable Fighter: The Complete Series, a compilation of all 14 books in this series, is available in both electronic and print format.

Royal Treatment
The story of Jackie Robinson's prodigious talent, his courageous journey, and his influence on both the game of baseball and American society writ large has been told well and often. What hasn't been told is the full story of his first season in the minor leagues in Montreal. In 1946, before moving up to the Brooklyn Dodgers, Robinson spent a season thrilling home crowds in a Canadian city with Major League aspirations. He played for the AAA Montreal Royals of the International League, leading the team to victory in the Junior World Series.As it turned out, postwar Montreal was the ideal location for Brooklyn Dodgers General Manager Branch Rickey's "great experiment" to finally integrate America's pastime. Although both Rickey and Robinson have rightly been at the center stage of this story, it was the masses of cheering Montrealers who first showed the world that professional baseball was ready to bury race-based segregation. As Robinson told a Canadian Broadcasting Corporation reporter years later, "Had it not been for the fact that we broke in in Montreal, I doubt seriously if we would have made the grade so rapidly. The fans were just fantastic, and my wife and I had nothing but the greatest of memories."In Royal Treatment Sean J. McLaughlin explores Robinson's experience in Canada as a Minor Leaguer and the warm embrace he received from Montrealers well before he became one of baseball's household names. Bringing the early fan experience of Robinson directly to the foreground, Royal Treatment is an intimate look at a pivotal juncture in Robinson's career, and the overwhelmingly positive relationship he had with the community that supported his rise to fame. This baseball story centers Robinson within the context of the Black American expatriate experience in Montreal in the postwar era.

Gary Lineker
'Full of pace and style, just like its subject ... a vivid, nostalgic reminder of Lineker's greatness as a player' - Leo McKinstry 'Skilfully crafted - there is not much more you can ask from a biography' - Patrick Barclay 'Chris Evans has done the hard yards on Lineker's football career.. faithfully detailing the life of a hard-working footballer at the highest level' - Roger Alton, The TimesENGLAND CAPTAIN. WORLD CUP HERO. SERIAL GOALSCORER. MATCH OF THE DAY HOST. FOOTBALL ICON. As player and pundit, Gary Lineker has been a prominent figure in English football for more than 40 years. He scored 48 goals in 80 games for England - coming within a penalty of being the country's record goalscorer - and is the only player to have topped the goalscoring charts at three different clubs. He famously never received a red or yellow card, and hosted the BBC's Match of the Day for 25 years. This enlightening biography - the first for 30 years - follows Lineker's career, from the school report which said, 'He concentrates too much on football' to his phenomenal goalscoring record and development as a media personality. Through meticulous research and interviews with teammates and opponents, coaches, journalists and commentators, journalist Chris Evans reveals the inside stories and backroom anecdotes from his early days at Leicester City; the big-money moves to Everton and Tottenham Hotspur; and the highs and lows of spells at Barcelona and Nagoya Grampus Eight in Japan. Gary Lineker always played with a smile on his face and an assassin's touch in front of goal, while his charm and playful humour won over millions on TV. For readers of Geoff Hurst's Last Boy of '66 and World Football Records, this biography provides a fascinating insight into one of English football's most popular characters.
