In Competitive Taekwondo, former world taekwondo champion Master Yong Sup Kil shares the techniques, tactics, strategies, and mental and physical conditioning that have elevated him to the highest level of this sport. A top competitor, official, and teacher, Master Kil has used the training techniques outlined in this book to coach elite athletes on U.S. national, junior national, and World University Games teams for more than a decade.

Victory in taekwondo is the result of strength, strategy, emotion, and skill. Competitive Taekwondo provides detailed instruction on each of these topics. With chapters covering kicking and blocking; stepping and footwork; competitive stances and postures; sparring tactics; and feints and timing, readers will learn to establish and execute fight plans that complement their strengths and exploit their opponents’ weaknesses.

Detailed descriptions and photo sequences convey effective techniques and tactics, while proven drills and sparring scenarios reinforce the key concepts for execution. Conditioning and sparring plans round out precompetition preparation. Competitive Taekwondo is the champion’s guide to taking down even the most formidable opponent.
