Extreme Joint Locking and Breaking isn't about sport fighting, flashy moves, or how to become a better person through the mental and physical discipline of a martial art. It presents realistic grappling techniques designed to control and restrain through the application of pain to the joints of the body. Its purpose is to provide today's modern warrior - the self-defence oriented martial artist, combat soldier, or law enforcement officer - with easy-to-apply techniques that first restrain and then, if taken to their maximum potential, inflict severe physical injury, including torn ligaments and tendons, broken bones, and even paralysis or death in extreme cases. The system outlined here is for surviving extreme circumstances when all other means have been exhausted.

Loren Christensen knows that these joint locks and breaks work from his three decades as a police officer and martial artist. To supplement his first-hand knowledge, he asked his law enforcement and martial artist friends from around the world to gather specific grappling tactics they know from experience to be devastatingly effective, and their favourites are also included.

The result is a highly efficient yet legally defensible package of proven moves using the fingers, elbow, shoulders, neck, back, knees, ankles, and toes to force an unwilling subject into compliance or to incapacitate a would-be attacker. Step-by-step photos show specific target points and up-close details of how to maximize each joint-punishing technique.
