"By uniting the physical-free-hand exercises, resistance cords, weights, and isometrics-combined with easy-to-apply mental devices, your hand techniques can be faster than you ever thought possible," says veteran martial artist Loren W. Christensen.
In FAST HANDS, Loren shows you the easy-to-apply science for developing ultimate hand speed, destroying many old training techniques that conflict with modern findings.
You will also learn speed "tricks" that helped Loren survive 29 years in law enforcement, including serving as a military policeman in Saigon, Vietnam, and a beat cop for 25 years in Portland, Oregon.
Resistance Training for Knife Speed: In this bonus chapter, learn how to turn your knife techniques into a blur using the same proven methods that can double your hand speed.
A martial arts veteran since 1965, Loren has earned a 1st-dan black belt in the Filipino fighting art of arnis, a 2nd-degree black belt in Aiki jujitsu, and, on October 23, 2018, the American Karate Black Belt Association in Texas, awarded him a 10th-dan black belt in karate. Loren was inducted into the Master's Hall of Fame in 2011 in Anaheim, California.CONTENTS
