  How To Learn Mixed Martial Arts...

  For those of you who have experience in grappling and striking, but do not know quite how to put it all together, this book may be for you. From the beginning to the end, "An Introduction to MMA" verbally and visually illustrates how to combine common techniques from boxing, kickboxing, and grappling into a single art - mixed martial arts. The text focuses on basic to intermediate striking combos, striking to takedown combos, and even grappling combos (submission chaining), not to mention addressing a few other areas as well. Boxing combos lead into takedowns, which lead into submissions or ground and pound, sometimes both, as you work through this text. 
  Aimed at helping you put together techniques you already know, "An Introduction to MMA" does not spend a lot of time reviewing the basics from each art, but instead focuses on what techniques from each art flow together. Therefore, if you have a basic knowledge of boxing, kickboxing, or both, and a bit of grappling under your belt, this manual may be able to help you take your skills to the next level, or at least improve what you do know. Either way, you are in for an informative and entertaining read. 
  HowExpert publishes quick 'how to' guides on all topics from A to Z by everyday experts.

  Fish Tales - Devotional Angles...

  Fish Tales – Devotional Angles for Anglers is a fun-loving, almost fantasical, yet entirely true collection of stories about a father and his son’s fishing adventures in the son’s growing up years. Presented with a very entertaining, devotional “spin,” these stories will make you laugh, maybe cry, and even feel a slight degree of trepidation and suspense as you “make it back to shore safely!” 
  You will humor the fact that this book is not a “how-to” be a great fisherman! In fact, it could be a “how-NOT-to” guide to fishing fame! But it is ‘breaming’ (pun intended) with hilarious and hazardous fish stories that will tickle your funny bone! OR make you “nervous as a house cat in a room full of rocking chairs” when you get caught in severe storms and lose complete control of the boat motor! 
  Most notably, you will hear the truth of Scripture as the Word of God speaks to your heart about important, everyday life lessons! The Bible is filled with fishing stories, not least among them, the invitation to become “fishers of men!” This book will hone your skills for sharing your love of Christ with others! 
  “Wayne’s witty way of telling fish tales is masterful and amusing! His ‘tales’ have enlightened me to the fact that fish are under God’s constant and direct leading, reminding me so much of my own personal experiences. Digging for red wiggler worms or netting minnows and crayfish for bait are familiar to rural North Carolina fishing. These tales describe a successful day not by the number of fish in the cooler but by the heartfelt memories of time spent with family and friends. 
  Thank you, Wayne, for these stories! I pray they will be as much a blessing to others as they are to me! I celebrate with you Christ’s invitation to, ‘Follow me and I will make you FISHERS OF MEN’” (Mt. 4:19). – Joseph Stephen Balazsi II, Long-Time friend and Vice President of Carolina Fishers of Men Inshore Trail

  Racing to the Finish - My Story

  Racecar driver Earnhardt was at the top of his game—until a minor crash resulted in a concussion that would eventually end his 18-year career. In his only authorized book, Dale shares the inside track on his life and work, reflects on NASCAR, the loss of his dad, and his future as a broadcaster, businessperson, and family man. 
  It was a seemingly minor crash at Michigan International Speedway in June 2016 that ended the day early for NASCAR star Dale Earnhardt Jr. What he didn’t know was that it would also end his driving for the year. He’d dealt with concussions before, but no two are the same. Recovery can be brutal, and lengthy. 
  When Dale retired from professional stock car racing in 2017, he walked away from his career as a healthy man. But for years, he had worried that the worsening effects of multiple racing-related concussions would end not only his time on the track but his ability to live a full and happy life. 
  Torn between a race-at-all-costs culture and the fear that something was terribly wrong, Earnhardt tried to pretend that everything was fine, but the private notes about his escalating symptoms that he kept on his phone reveal a vicious cycle: suffering injuries on Sunday, struggling through the week, then recovering in time to race again the following weekend. In this candid reflection, Earnhardt opens up for the first time about:The physical and emotional struggles he faced as he fought to close out his career on his own termsHis frustration with the slow recovery from multiple racing-related concussionsHis admiration for the woman who stood by him through it allHis determination to share his own experience so that others don’t have to suffer in silence 
  Steering his way to the final checkered flag of his storied career proved to be the most challenging race and most rewarding finish of his life.
