Enhance your skills when you have no training partners! October 22, 2006
Of all the martial-arts writers, Mr. Christensen is one of the foremost sources on purely practical training for REAL COMBAT. He is a former Army military policeman (a Veitnam veteran), and a veteran of civilian law-enforcemnet. In many of his books he includes real-life accounts of violent encounters which he has experienced, utilized to illustrate a point in his discussion.
This book is a collection of various drills, excercises, and the like to enhance your fighting skills when you have no training partner. The training you conduct alone is as important as that which you do with your classmates. As a previous instructor in Marine Corps close-combat, I found the drills described inside to be universal for anyone involved in some manner of martial-arts, whether it be tactical or sport oriented. READ THE OTHER BOOKS BY MR. CHRISTENSEN TOO!

I have always enjoyes Loren W. Christensen's writings and this book does provide much information. I do however believe that, though this is a wonderful source of information, if you compound this with his book, "Solo Training" you will gain a much greater understanding of his methods.

As a student of karate for 7 years and a Personal Trainer with 15 years of weight training and bodybuilding experience, I was disappointed with the very rudimentary information offered on all of the subjects within this book. One would be much better off locating other books covering such topics as mental training, weight training and general martial arts conditioning than going with "The Way Alone"
Excellent! A helpful and informative read. June 22, 1999

This book discusses a wide variety of original drills and excercises to help martial artists suplement their dojo training. I would recommend this to anyone who is serious about martial arts.
