| There's a lot of talk in martial arts about "closing the gap". Although this can mean a number of things, in relation to this book it's all about placing yourself at the correct distance from your opponent to execute your technique of choice. Whether this technique is a right cross, a roundhouse kick or a short range punch.
Short range explosive power can sometimes be seen as something of a Valhalla. The majority of your boxing or martial arts training will undoubtedly have been about creating power, and generally this power is achieved over a distance of 2-3 feet or more, so how then can you create ANY power over a distance of 6 inches or less?
"Bruce Lee's 1 and 3 Inch Power Punch" takes you through this power creation process in a step by step manner - take care though, because if you don't practise the technique in the manner in which it is taught, you'll a) Fail to achieve any real power from it or b) You'll break your wrist!
In summary, it's all about relaxation, visualisation, breath and weight control - Confused? You need to read the book!
