Everyone knows that once you really start pushing the envelope on your current abilities, you need those subtle yet all important tools to move from average to elite performance. They can seem insignificant to the untrained observer, but are better than gold to those who have the faculties to incorporate them.


Pavel delivers as always.

I've spent the last couple of years desperately trying to recover the speed I've been losing by inches.

Before I'd even finished watching this DVD, it became clear what I'd really lost.

Years ago, I used to 'snap' strikes in. As I've become a more serious fighter, I've succumbed to trying to 'drive' them in (karateka can read this as misunderstanding what it really means to train "with kime").

It's ironic that the fact that I'm trying so much harder is what has been slowing me down all along.

I credit Pavel for explaining this so clearly & demonstrating drills that deliver rapid results.

If you're a serious competitor looking for that extra edge, you *must* add these drills to your routine.

Thank you, Pavel, for another excellent product.

OSU!!

I purchased Fast and Loose to hopefully improve mine and my client?s athletic performance. I was not disappointed. But it was at work that the techniques I learned in the DVD really shined. After about 6 hours of lifting half barrels my back and shoulders would just seize up. But not any more. The exercises and loosening up drills have made a world of difference. I now have several of my coworkers doing the drill. If you work for a living you need this.

I spend over two hours a day in the car and have been feeling my body become more and more tight. I have found it difficult to stay loose and as a result have been experiencing daily back pain. After following along with Pavel's Fast and Loose DVD for the first time, in less than 30 minutes, I felt better than I had in almost 10 years. The DVD is very basic, but the results were INSTANTANEOUS. I am more flexible than I have been in a long time and my back pain is history. If you're looking for a quick routine to help you stay loose and feel better, I would recommend this DVD to you.

I give this DVD a low rating because it did not meet my requirements. I am looking for an exercise DVD that I can use to follow along alone for a session. This DVD will give you ideas for exercises--but you then will have to put them into your own program, because the DVD shows each exercise first with a partner, and then in a form that you can do yourself. As a result, you end up watching the partners exercise for 50% of the the DVD. Also the movements are too jerky without a warmup (I'm 65 years old). I would recommend some of the other Pavel DVD's if one is looking for a stand-alone exercise routine.

Want to know what I say about this video?

Observe! Enjoy! And go away! Im stretching!

For Mutant Flexibility, look no further than this video.

This DVD delivers exactly what was promised. After completing it I do truly feel "Fast and Loose".

these techniques are very basic and simple making them perfict for remembering and using everyday at any time after just doing a few for 2 3 mins to loosen up after lifing boxes n heavy furnerture in 110 degree weather all morning the body feels better then it did the whole day an i can do another days work after just moments of simple mixed up routines

and lemmy say as a martial arts studie im always looking for ways to increase my speed in an instant and more faster way...though i would have prefured a bit more explination and aplication for the harder striking techniuqe i must say it relaxes the arm far then i could before throwing any punch and the effects of speed and impact have doubled and the recoil minimized....

however i found there is no relaxation techniuqe that works well for the feet i would love for my feet to feel as energized an refreshed as the rest of my body.... yet the tension still plaiges them..thats why im giving up a 9 instead of 10

Unfortunately I was diappointed with this DVD. This is a
re-packaging of old material with a few new tips thrown in.

Although I did pick up a pointer or two they were
not worth the price I paid for this product.

You can't win them all...

i really do like the concept of the way to relax muscles the way the dvd does show. i have a very long experience with different rehab activites such as dynamic strethcing, self myofascial release, applying wet ice. stretch and spray. etc.


the key is thou to finding the exact excersize with the exact technique that works the exact problem muscle or muscles you may have. that is not so easy and does require some experimentation. perhaps.

im a giving the product an 8 cause there is no such thing as perfect and all reviewers that did well nothing is perfect. there is always room to improve. actually the minute you think you know everything look again youve missed something.

further reasons for the 8 are while some of the stuff in the dvd is really great i wish there had been more excersizes included and the dvd was longer. im especially looking for excersizes to loosen the stabilizer muscles of the hip to which i could not really find in the dvd. the dvd is mostly for upper body i just wish there had been more lower body.

this is a good dvd for loosing up your muscles but its far to short and for that reason is not good value for money.

I purshased Fast and Loose from the recommendation of Dr Stuart Mc Gill,if i can use just one thing it is worth every cent and Fast and Loose provided that also bringing my awarness back to what's important for health and performance.

The emphasis is on exercises to loosen your muscles and train the feeling of being loose.

There could be more exercises for speed. Pavel does a nice job translating looseness into speed and power with the round house kick.

If the DVD included something about punching, or other striking, it would be much more complete. Loose alone is not enough to be fast, and that is where this DVD is lacking.

Thought that the dvd would have offered more. This would be good for someone that has zero athletic experiences. Much of what is shown can be picked up around wrestling matches and other martial arts. The presentation is good but the material is not ground breaking.

He is a great manster, technique are easy and powerful
