Rating on fighters fact book November 6, 2000 7 out of 9 found this review helpful
So far I've read 2 chapters and already find a use for this book! It gives you the information on how effective the techniques are and then gives you instruction on how to execute the techniques. Definately a book worth it's money!
Very Comprehensive! September 19, 2000 24 out of 25 found this review helpful
I have been in martial arts a short 8 years. Even prior to that time, I had collected a number of training and self defense books. This one is easily the best for training! Although the focus is on more realistic self defense applications, the treatment is broad and addresses fitness and sport applications as well! The writting style is both knowledgeable and humble. The author shows humor about his experience and does not come off as a "know-it-all", as many martial arts writers do.I read 2/3 of the book the first night!
HIGHLY Recommended. July 23, 2000 14 out of 14 found this review helpful
This book is a very thorough, very practical approach to self defense. It contains ideas that I would have never thought of on my own. Not only does the author include all of his years of experience as an instructor and a cop, but he adds drills and concepts from many other experienced instructors. It is a thick book that covers many subjects from different angles. As with Christensen's other books, the ideas and applications in this book are kept on a simple level and are extremely practical. For anyone who is serious about self defense and martial arts, this book is a must-have.

I've collected martial arts books for several years and I've found this to be one of the best if not the best. Unlike other martial arts writers whose books in which you may find a couple things of value, Loren Christensen always gives you your moneys worth. Fighter's Fact Book is huge - like the subtitle says, it's got over 400 techniques and drills in it. Even those things I have seen before, Christensen has a way of making them seen fresh and unique, so that you learn something new. There was lots of new material, too, things I've never seen or thought of, especially street survival fighting.
