Attain the essential core strength that will result in rock-hard abs without doing endless crunches! Scott Cole, the fitness celebrity made famous on the Abs of Steel video, presents his revolutionary program to develop and maintain a sculpted midsection.
This workout can be done at home, and no expensive equipment is necessary! Rather than focus on endless repetitions of painful crunches, this program uses your entire body to condition your core. Athletic Abs combines principles found in sport training, martial arts, gymnastics, and yoga to isolate and develop the four abdominal regions. Not only will these exercises result in a chiseled look, they'll also increase your overall strength, flexibility, and balance. Plus, a special section combining nutrition and interval training will help you burn fat and showcase your abs. 
In addition to starring in the bestselling Abs of Steel, Scott Cole has been named one of IDEA's top five fitness trainers in the world. He has been featured as a fitness expert on ABC, NBC, and HGTV and has written for USA Today, Men's Fitness, Shape, GQ, and Fit, among many others. He is currently one of the most sought-after fitness professionals in the world. Together, Scott Cole and cowriter Tom Seaborne, an elite cyclist and third-dan black belt, have over 45 years of experience helping thousands achieve their physical peak.
Whether you are looking to enhance your general fitness or improve your sports performance, the Athletic Abs workout will ensure that you achieve a powerful core of chiseled, rock-hard abs!

Taekwondo is a Korean martial art practiced all over the world. Its popularity stems from many reasons. Virtually everyone who is involved with this art agrees that it is an outstanding way to improve physical fitness, mental focus, and self-discipline. Children who study taekwondo often exhibit greater motivation and increased self-esteem. Besides these benefits, participants can train for competition and learn effective self-defense techniques.
The authors have chosen 38 of taekwondo's most effective breakfalls, stances, strikes, kicks, blocks, and steps. Each of these, singly and in combination, is described and illustrated with clear language and photos. The book serves well as a companion to formal instruction or as a stand-alone text.
In Taekwondo Techniques &amp; Tactics you'll learn:
- the proper way to stretch, - how conditioning will improve your performance, and - foolproof strategies for defeating your opponent in the ring. 
Novices will have no trouble recognizing how to perform techniques. The chapters on the origins, traditions, and language of taekwondo provide a good introduction to the art, including advice on getting started and choosing an instructor. Experienced students will appreciate the level of detail and the tips for improving their techniques. They'll also appreciate the chapters on tactics, conditioning, and preparing for competition.
Sidebars on self-defense point out adaptations for effective street defense, whenever these differ from competition techniques or tactics. Advice on competition and tactics is especially strong since both authors were champion competitors. Seabourne is a two-time Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) and Pan-American champion and a silver medalist in the World Taekwondo Championships. Park is an undefeated former Korean national champion who moved to America to coach the U.S. National Team.
