Book Reviews of Speed Training : How to Develop Your Maximum Speed for Martial Arts

Book Review: Lots of info, good exercises, but kinda boring
Summary: 4 Stars

This book has a lot of information which helps to understand the basics to becoming fast and how to develop more speed. The drills are nice and the pictures help better explain the exercises. My only criticism of the book is I found it kinda boring. I don't know why, I found myself having a hard time reading large portions of it at a time. The author uses a lot of analogies which normally can be good but I found most of them to be a little corny. For example: "The truth is, if a bodybuilder really consumed that many grams of protein for any length of time, his kidneys would go off like a whoopee cushion under a fat lady's butt". All in all the information in the book is helpful and opens you up to a different way to think about your speed, I just didn't enjoy it as much as I thought I would. I give it 4 stars based on content but if I were to rate it by personal feelings I would give it a 2.
