Media Reviews
Tom Seabournes' The Martial Arts Athlete is a wealth of information on training the body: weight training, stretching, isometrics, and nutrition - as well as the mind: meditation, visualization, and developing a positive attitude essential to competition. I recommend it not only for martial artists and athletes but for everyone interested in self-improvement. -- Frank Zane, M.A., Mr. Olympia (1977, 1978, 1979), Mr. Universe (1968, 1970, 1972), Mr. World (1969), Mr. America (1968)
