Video Review
Forearm toughness, dexterity, agility and strength all combined in one strength training exercise. Man, what a combination. You name the sport and it will help you out. Think about it. You play football. How often are you needing tougher, faster and stronger forearms? You wrestle. How often are you needing tougher, faster and stronger forearms? You box. How often are you needing tougher, faster and stronger forearms?
You will get all of that with the Shaolin Iron Ring Training and Sifu Anta shows you how to do it in clear, concise and easy to use methods that you can incorporate into what you are already doing. It is obvious that he has been teaching this stuff for years and teaching it with none of the weird mystical BS that you often see associated with martial arts. This is just solid training.

I had the pleasure of reviewing “Shaolin Physical Conditioning DVD and I’m ready to report that it is an excellent product. First let me begin by saying that Mr. Anta is exceptionally qualified to instruct this DVD. Not only is he a Master Level instructor of Kung Fu but he is also an ISSA certified Fitness Instructor, world renowned kettlebell instructor, and former competitive bodybuilder. Mr. Anta knows fitness and kung fu better than most people.
This video is a library of physical training techniques. The techniques presented in the video are not designed to produce aesthetic physiques. No, the nature of the material is pure functional and dynamic fitness. The exercises shown will definitely help you develop fighting strength, muscular endurance, agility, balance and speed.
Among the more interesting exercises on the DVD are the traditional ring workouts, as well as the forearm and grip training techniques. All things equal the stronger, more agile combatant will usually come out on top. This DVD will definitely help you become fighting fit.

Master Anta, I recently watched your new DVD, "Shaolin Physical
Conditioning", and found it excellent.
It provides a comprehensive overview of solid training principles, which
reminded me of my early days of martial arts training.
My first 10 years of training were in Uechi-Ryu Karate, which stressed a lot
of body/forearm conditioning.
I would highly recommend your new DVD to serious martial artists and
athletes as well.

Anta's Shaolin Physical Conditioning is a very informative and well presented fitness video. Anta teaches with precision and detail. I highly recommend this video to anyone that wants to get in shape whether you are a martial artist or not. This video has inspired me to do research on the history of Shaolin training.
