Great book, if you are a beginner and you are learning to kick.Readers who know the Hatmaker style of writing and his book "system" wont be dissapointed

When I notice Mark Hatmaker had another NHB book out I had to read the review and I almost passed on buying this gem but I took a chance due to the fact that I have read his savage strikes, and his clinching book. Needless to say you will NOT be disappointed if you enjoy his other endeavors. Let me preface that this book is true to its title and is a kicking bible for MMA and street strikes. Mr Hatmaker is very clear in the intro that he has a bias in unarmed combat disciplines and its not toward the flashy kicks of the Eastern arts. I personally am not an "Martial Artist". I'm a fairly educated minimally trained City Cop who depends on this type of material to put down guys who experiment with street pharmaceuticals, are dangerous mentals, or the worst just plain cold blooded murderers. I can't afford the ten years of artistic training with my feet and Mr Hatmaker does not waste your time but goes straight to the goods giving what statistically will save your butt and he does so with some weighted agreement.Someone with only a year of training in boxing and wrestling could easily defeat a martial artist of twenty years experience. -Bruce LeeIn my humble opinion I think this is a fine piece of work and if you read the full NHB title without any preconceived ideas you will walk away happy.

Leg destruction is a lost art especially with these new MMA fighters coming out. Only a handful will only respect on how to attack a person's legs; kicking and kick defense. If you're looking against defense from knees, you might need to find another book. But overall, this is a good self defense book. Trust and believe no one does not want to get kicked in the shins with boots, repeatedly and then, get punched right after. Or a fast, and heavy kick to the groin, with only using your shin will drop man or woman (ahem...). It's a good book to have in the martial arts library.

Amazon has helped me get fit again and I'm loving these books, much thanks to Amazon.
