Publisher's Summary

A Mind for the Fight provides you with the necessary tools to facilitate a critical evolution in your survival mindset. Retired Green Beret, renowned martial artist, and infamous street fighter Jim "Smokey" West offers a comprehensive guide to developing the mental game necessary to turn your defense into offense when a violent street assault finds you. Moreover, this audiobook presents the foundation, framework, and technical fight principles of American Extension Fighting, a philosophy of martial arts that takes a nonlinear, systems-focused approach toward a unified skill set for the 21st century. Gaps exist in everyone's skill set; AEF's goal is to fill those gaps and to do so with a guilt-free assessment of individual system variances and system failures, fostering continual improvement—improvement that will ensure you survive and thrive when confronted with chaotic, real-world violence. A Mind for the Fight offers you a road map to excellence in both combat sports and street survival, enabling you to work through fear, eradicate the threat, and come out on the other side.
