Don't try to defend yourself using this book. You will get creamed. This book is strictly for fitness kickboxing which is okay. Don't use this book to create your own style unless it is a fitness kickboxing style. I don't think that many of these exercises translate well to a competition class. These exercises are best left in the aerobics room for the most part.

I am a kickboxing instructor, teaching a class on heavy bags and working on developing a style of my own. I have found O'Donnell's book to be an invaluable source of information to me. His clear, concise descriptions of stances and punching and kicking techniques cover all the basics. I'm always looking for creative kickboxing combinations, and he has a number of them in the book. In addition, his section in the back on Resistance Training Exercises has helped me tremendously in creating new ways to challenge the people I'm instructing. I would highly recommend this book to anyone interested in teaching a challenging kickboxing class - either cardio or contact style.

I got this book for my 17 year old son who is training by himself in the garage. He loved it!! It has everything he was looking for.
And I got the book before the due date, I was very pleased.
