5 stars (Mr. Grossman has done it again!!!!!!!!!!) - Out of all the training manuals and books that we have to read as Marines, this book has more facts and "what to expect" in a combat environment than any of them I have read. Just this past Feb/March, I returned home from Fallujah, Iraq where I was with RCT-1. We killed 2500 terrorists and lost 115 Marines in the 7 months I was there. Knowing everything I learned from that experience, I could not give even half the information he has provided in this book. I have read all of Mr. Grossman's book and watched all of his tapes, I CANNOT say enough great things about them. They are packed with information and knowledge that ALL law enforcement, military, security personnel, and parents should read!!! Great Book!!!!! 5 stars (Warrior psychology) - As a military man who has seen combat and as a former police officer facing stress on the streets due to life and death situations, there is much we can do to mentally prepare ourselves. This book brings to light experiences in "combat-type stress" which can aide in understanding and give assistance to handle the fear/guilt/stress of having to deal with killing/survival actions. I recommend this book for any and all military personnel; And this book should be manditory reading in all police academies. This book points out the need for more study in this field. 5 stars (Live saver) - without this book, many Soldiers inculding myself would not recover from our experiences, Read it, really read it and it will explain things you otherwise would not understand, Thanks! ...

5 stars (Very Helpful) - This book gives many tips and examples on how to improve your fighting skills regardless of your level. I enjoyed reading it and would recommend it to anyone looking for this kind of information. 5 stars (A MAJOR amount of help!) - I was struggling before I read this book and wondering how I could improve certain techniques and strengthen certain muscles. Christensen gives each and every single detail on how you can improve yourself as a fighter. His advice is very good too! I found myself imroving immediately after only reading a few pages. Christensen gives you facts on whats good and bad as well as ways to train and exercises to do. This is a book you will not regret buying and has my full recommendation. 5 stars (Another great book from Loren) - Loren is a great writer which makes all the great information fun to read as well as actually use. Sure alot of it is no big secret but it's all here. Just doing a few of these drills and exercises will improve your skills immensely. Highly recommended as well as his Solo Training book. Loren has also written lots of great reviews of other martial arts books that are honest and imformative so by all means check em out. Good job Loren. THANKS!!! ...
