In Olympic Judo: Throwing Techniques, Neil Adams and Cyril Carter examine ten of the most popular and effective throwing techniques used in competition at World and Olympic level. Neil Adams, twice Olympic Silver Medallist and 1981 World Champion, demonstrates how each technique can be adapted to produce variations to fit the different circumstances that can arise both in practice and competition. The variations range from the devastating and spectacular 'ippon' throws of TAI-OTOSHI and UCHIMATA to the now more popular sacrifice technique TOMOE-NAGE.
Neil Adams and Cyril Carter then examine the vital aspects of combining techniques in order to fool opponents, thus providing successful formulae for both club and top-level recreational and competitive judo.
Also included, and of especial interest to the novice and less experienced competitor, are a glossary of judo terms and the British Judo Association promotion syllabi.
Neil Adams' technical excellence, together with his knowledge and experience of world-class judo, in combination with the objective, critical perspective of his coach Cyril Carter has produced a book of unique value to all those who study and practise judo.
