Publisher's Synopsis
After years of sedentary living de Angeles moved to a new home and began a martial art at the age of forty. Not long after, her instructor told her she didn't have the strength to kick a fly so de Angeles began training with free weights at her local gym. When she first typed up this manual it was for friends. A copy of it sat on the counter of the gym and was used as a guide by so many people-particularly woman-that it pretty well fell to pieces. Now de Angeles wants to share its unique philosophy and the training regime that proved itself.
