I got my copy of your book yesterday and sacraficed a precious hour of sleep to read through the first five chapters. I like it!
I think you do a great job covering the basic bio-machanics in a
way that anybody can understand, but that is still usefull to someone
who has been around around WMA for a while. I think it's your use of a
very conversational tone and down to earth terms that makes the reader
think "actively" about the topic.
- Your comments about flexing your gluts to adjust posture are dead on, and I never even thought about it until I read your desciption.
- Your comments about keeping your knees flexed
and by straightening or bending further at the joint to change
measure/distance without movign your feet is great.
- The way that you weave elements of tactical factors into
posture, without getting off topic is great. (Honestly, while I was
reading about leaving targets exposed by posture choices I kept
thinking about how I lost the ISMAC knife bout to you by not slipping
my leg - three tims in a row - so stupid!)
