TJJ...T-Shirt Jiu Jitsu


Book Description

When you see the power and effectiveness of the TJJ you will be amazed and a interesting thing might happen. You will ask yourself ‘how come I never learned this stuff before’ and that quickly will become ‘wait, I already know that technique’ and evolve into ‘I already know that, in fact I probably always did’ and finally ‘I thought of that first’. Well you didn’t know it, your didn’t think of it first and you never learned it until I just taught you. But in only a few months after reading this book and watching the video the word will indeed start to spread across the globe and millions of BJJ and Martial Arts Students will indeed think they already knew it and forget who ‘invented’ it all. I do ask that you try to remember that the greatest ideas and inventions are always the ‘simplest and most effective’ and when people see them, they always say ‘why didn’t’ someone think of that before’, and that is what is going to happen with TJJ. It is so effective, easy to learn and easy to teach, everyone will think they actually knew it before or thought of it themselves and many of you will in fact develop new and even better techniques. All I ask is that somewhere in the back of your mind you file the thought. Grandmaster Ted Gambordella developed TJJ…T-Shirt Jiu Jitsu and tell your students. And when you see the Gamboria…the most effective control technique in TJJ please call it the Gamboria…not something else. Thank You for learning TJJ from its originator. Grandmaster Ted Gambordella

Muscular Power and Beauty


Book Description

A remarkable early book on bodybuilding and male physique, Muscular Power and Beauty was originally published in 1906. Bernarr Macfadden (1868 - 1955) was an exponent of classic Apollo and Hercules body ideals, and his book gives exercises for many different muscle groups to achieve this. Remarkably, many of the photos of MacFadden are nude (although not full frontal or full rear views) side views, and this must have been considered a fairly risque publication for its time. Many closeup photos of arms, chest, legs, etc. show the exercises and the development that MacFadden achieved.
