Book Description
Following in the tradition of the author’s mid-decade bestseller, Workouts from Boxing’s Greatest Champs, this sequel volume is set to KO all boxing/combat sport enthusiasts in 2010. Featuring interviews with a classic coterie of international boxing luminaries, this impressive anthology is superbly illustrated throughout with some of the best photos of them at work in the ring or training in the gym. Our celebrated present-day fighters and former champions range from the instantly recognisable ‘Iron Mike’ Tyson, Thomas ‘the Hitman’ Hearns and Roberto Duran to such respected British favourites as Danny Williams and Jim Watt. Running to a format which incorporates career synopses and mini-interviews for every fighter, the reader is introduced to the fitness and training regimes of some of the world’s most physically powerful men. Culled from the author’s original research, the greatest ever champion pugilists grant us a fly-on-the-wall look at ‘A Day in the Life’ and ‘A Typical Day at the Gym’. Not just a boxing fan’s album but a fitness guide for those looking for a seriously effective workout, Workouts . . . II grants the health & fitness-orientated reader vital knowledge from the Olympian gods of pugilism.
