About the Product
Judo is known as the gentle martial art, but when two judokas square
off, the action is fast and furious. Yet the art and sport forms of
judo both require great control and swiftness. Indeed, a key to
greatness in the sport is the ability to use an opponent’s own strength
against him rather than trying to subdue or combat it.
Competitive Judo is your guide to developing the technical
skills, tactical maneuvers, and proper mind-set to achieve ultimate
success in the sport. Master the use of various grips such as the
sleeve lapel and double lapel, as well as popular throws such as the
leg grab (te waza). The book also details how to set up throw attacks
for inducing opposite reaction in the opponent, use stepping patterns,
execute combination techniques, and utilize blocks and stumbles. In
setting up groundwork techniques, various transitions, combination
ground techniques, and reversals are also covered in depth.
Long-time elite competitor and coach Ron Angus covers every facet of
being a winning judoka, from scouting your opponent to building
strength and speed to recovering. Apply his advice on training and
competing, and then experience the excitement of scoring ippon in your
next shiai.
