Mind Over Muscle: Writings From The Founder Of Judo

if you love judo and its philosophy it is a must

A Brilliant book. I have studied judo for 3 years, mostly from a fitness point of view, something alternative to the gym that also got me meeting people.Over the last few months, i felt that something was missing from my Judo, after various discussion with my fellow Judoka i became interested in where Judo really came from, its ideals and Philosophy. This is a brilliant book, that has provided me with a wonderful insight into how and why Judo was developed. what Jigoro Kano wanted judo to be.The only negative, is sometimes the translation can be a trifle confusing. But none the less a brilliant read. I've leant it to a friend who is also thoroughly enjoying reading it. But i want it back so i can read it again!! I have a feeling you could read it several times and learn something different everytime.Worth every penny.

This is a book for those who want to know the reasons behind what you're doing when training in Judo. It explains why and what the thinking is behind the sport, by its founder! Already on the second read through

A very good read for anyone wanting to understand Judo a little better.

This is a fantastic book for the Judoka who is interested in the beginings of Judo. This book shows the fundamental teachings of Judo and why Jigoro Kano started the art. I thoroughly enjoyed it and I hope you do to
