Sports medicine and sports science are relatively new and rapidly
developing fields of knowledge. During the past 2 decades, a
significant body of scientific knowledge has been published in
these areas. However, there is a demand for practical ref- ences
which address sports medicine and science in the context of
different sports. This demand is higher in some sports including
combat sports, which are highly physically and mentally demanding,
and cause challenging issues such as risk of blood-borne
infections, weight reduction, head injuries, stress management, and
safety for women and children. This book has been developed to meet
the needs of the practitioners who work with combat sports athletes
in order to improve their health and performance. Combat sports
include four Olympic sports (boxing, wrestling, judo, and t-
kwondo) and other popular sports such as karate, kick boxing, and
Wushu. These sports are popular in most countries of the world,
both at competitive and rec- ational levels. Combat sports are
practiced by people of different ages for a variety of reasons such
as to gain fitness and health benefits and to learn self-defense.
