 Like Combat Conditioning with a gymnastic twist December 15, 2008
Todd Jones
If you are a fan of bodyweight training, you should check out this book. For those of you familiar with Combat Conditioning, you will find a lot of similarities. It's basically like Combat Conditioning with a very gymnastic twist to it, which makes it all that much more challenging and interesting. A lot of handstand type movements and supporting your bodyweight on your hands.

A very good book to learn the basics of capoira movements. It is great for general fitness for anyone of any age and fitness levels.
Something different to the usual jogging, weights, cycling, etc.
