ESP RAW 103: Smart Feet; Smart Fighter
  
(There are only 5 more days to pick up this RAW volume for the discount price).
  
Striking coaches, whether they be boxing, kick-boxing, or Muay Thai trainers have a dictum: Smart feet, smart fighter. Some trainers go so far as to say you can tell the caliber of the fighter by watching the first 30 seconds of a match from the waist down. Such observations as: "Does the fighter cross their feet when stepping" "Do they bounce mistaking emulations of rope-skipping for footwork?".  "Is the rear heel up at all times? He's punch/kick-loaded at all times." "Does he move from flat-footed to raised heels? That heel tells you what's gonna be fired and when."
  
ESP RAW 103 provides you with a template to educate your feet. This DVD...
  • Starts at the ground floor and re-builds your stance from the heels up. (Placing your hips too far to 50% drastically slims your options).
  • We then introduce The Footwork Tango, a 24-Step Drill that...
  • Educates the 14-Primary Parts of striking Footwork.
  • You can use The Footwork Tango as a whole to build mobility but it's how we suggest pulling it apart piecemeal that will build the Smarter Fighter.
  • Once the Footwork Tango is mastered we offer suggestions on how to take any striking drill (offensive or defensive) and shoot it through the various drill parts to truly build educated offensive and defensive mobility.
  • For a long time we've been looking for a way to push the primacy of good footwork while not having it become a chore to do "before you get to the fun stuff."
  • This drilling method which makes coordinated footwork a part of every session (both striking & on-the-feet grappling) solves that neglected hole in a fighter's education.

ESP RAW 103: Smart Feet; Smart Fighter can be had this month for only $32 (S & H included) at the end of the month the price goes to $42 Domestic/$52 International.

Strike Combinations book
MMA MASTERY: Strike Combinations
 
We've just received word that we'll receive our crate of the newest book in the MMA Mastery series next week; it will be shipping to stores the second week of June. This volume is 240 pages & 1000+ photos. 

Briefly, this volume covers...
  • The Primacy of Punches in Bunches
  • The Neuroscience behind the Effectiveness of Combinations.
  • The Power of Constructing in Three's
  • The fight metrics behind the Power of Three's
  • The Biomechanics of Striking Power
  • Streamlined Integrated Footwork
  • The Wisdom of "Miss" Training
  • The Rise of the MMA Jab

 

We then offer high-percentage Striking Combination Menus (180 of them to be exact) culled from 500 analyzed top-level MMA matches and break them into Number of Strikes per Combination and/or Featured Tool (Punches, Elbows, Knees, & Kicks) so that you can easily zero-in on your specific drill needs. We then offer a section on High-Percentage combinations to Mask Shooting and then we move into how to add spice to striking training by...

  • Chunking Combinations
  • Firing all combinations through the Six Drills & the Six Attitudes.
  • And we conclude with a section on how to "Game the Gear" to make even solo striking training competitive.

DOWN & OUT DVD
  

Our next commercial DVD release will be Volume 1 in Down & Out Mixed Drilling which features flow drills that combine MMA striking, shooting, clinchwork, ground and pound, and submissions into one cohesive whole. These DVDs will be available commercially sometime this summer but, I have one (and only one) author's copy of this title (no box art) that we're letting go on a first come-first serve basis for $50 S&H included. To snag it, simply be the first to respond and it's yours.

 

Have a great weekend!
