An advanced training course for developing a strong striking hand to deliver powerful blows using the Iron Palm martial arts technique

A comprehensive guide for experienced practitioners of Chinese martial arts-including kung-fu, karate, and taekwondo-with over 200 instructive images

Iron Palm is a set of martial art conditioning skills-dating back to the Shaolin Temple of 5th-century China-whose purpose is to strengthen the hand while empowering the fighter to strike with force and precision. Training is focused and incremental, requiring the guidance of an experienced master.

Author, instructor, and 5-time US National Chinese martial arts Champion Phillip Starr provides the definitive guide to Iron Palm, meticulously outlining the 3 sequential steps of training-

. hardening limbs
.developing technique
.engaging Qigong for coordinating breath and mind

The end result is a more powerful and precise strike that can impact the target's viscera with no trace on the outer body. Lavishly illustrated with more than 200 images, this book is ideal for experienced martial arts practitioners.

Industry Reviews

"Any serious student of Chinese Martial Arts should engage in the practice of Iron Palm, a frequently neglected, widely misunderstood, and often mysticized practice. Sifu Phillip Starr's incredible lifetime commitment to Chinese martial arts combined with his rare knowledge and teaching ability has perfectly positioned him to write this book. I wholeheartedly recommend it!"
--Chris Lomas, Chinese martial arts teacher and 2019 Champion of Catch Wrestling World Championship Super Heavyweight

"Shifu Phillip Starr's no-nonsense approach of conversational language coupled with his experience of Iron Palm gives us a text that is informed, motivating, and accessible. Authentic Iron Palm is an excellent primer for the beginning student and a quality reference for the advanced practitioner."
--Damon Honeycutt, MFA, Chinese martial arts instructor and transdisciplinary performer
