AikiBib | May 29, 2022 | Judo: How to become a champion is the first ook on this world-wide sport in which Britain's stars explain, n interviews, how they have won gold and glowry in international compeitions.
Britain has suddenly become one of the most formidable forces in judo-the country which even the mighty Japanese, inventors of the sport, now fear. Here are the views of the men who all made this scintillating success a reality. Men like Brian Jacks, the Olympic middleweight bronze medallist and 1973 European champion, Dave Starbrook, the light-heavyweight silver-medallist in Munich, Angleo Parisi, bronze medallist at the Olympics when only 20, and heavy Keith Remfry, the man who beat the All-Japan Champion, have each given the author their own special training tips for both beginners and advanced pupils.
They freely discuss the moves which will be invaluable for contests at any level of this rapidly expanding sport. The secrets of their throws, grappling techniques, ground-work and contest tactics are all revealed in this well illustrated book. It also contains a section on weight-training which so many of the modern champions use in their drive for victory.

AikiBib | May 29, 2022 | Published prior to the Beijing Olympics, it highlights the modern Olympics from 1896 through 2004. It provides some of the highlights from each, and brief stories from each. Interesting enough, but at times it made me think of someone reading from the Olympics section of the uiness Book of Records.
