I got True Strength Yang on March 2009 and have done the regimen ever since. As a hardcore skeptic I guarantee that True Strength Yang delivers you everything it promises! I do Sanshou, Kali and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu I and can tell you from such a person’s viewpoint how punches and kicks don’t hurt nearly as much as they used to and the pain goes away VERY fast- be it uppercuts or kicks to the midsection. Defending against leg kicks is less painful due to toughening of my thigh muscles and shins. When someone traps my forearm with his shin while grappling on the mat it barely stings and when I’m going to get armbarred inside my opponent’s guard it won’t cause too much pain on my thigh as he presses on it with his foot. You can get ALL of this and much, much more without having to wreck your precious body with debilitating, nerve-killing exercises like banana tree-kicking and grappling on gravel. It’s kind of funny how my training partners might ask me "are you okay?" after I’ve had a critical hit and I can just shrug it off.
As I carried on with the regimen, I noticed how the slaps started to sound more and more like thuds. I thought I was imagining things, but it really did sound more like a thud! Also, the stinging feeling has dulled out a lot and won’t linger as long. With the "Base" training on the second DVD I can now shift my weigth a lot more fluidly on the mat. The whole regimen is extremely easy to do and won’t take much time, I’ve got amazing results with about 10 minutes few times a week.
In my opinion, the material presented on this DVD is laid out very well and the sequences are easy to follow. Stephan Berwick has made follow-along workouts, too. You just have to be consistent and take your time.
True Strength Yang is something extremely unique and little known, even so much that I would compare it to the impact Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu made on people in the first UFC. This review has been written by a martial artist, but I’m sure you can find something for yourself from the regimen if you are not someone like me- go ahead and ask the author, Stephan Berwick for details. Order True Strength Yang NOW. It will be far more than good for you. If you disagree with me, you are wrong. While you are at it, persuade other people to try it out, too!
