Men, we have raised the platform and laid the canvas, so to say, to take a shot at the fighting spirit that defines most men – whether instinctive or learned, men, are, generally known to live up to the ‘fight it out’ expression.
Our cover story explores the broad concept of ‘fight’ on a martial arts platform. It is a tribute to the spirit of fight that men, seemingly, nurture all their lives, dropping their guard in confrontational situations. Featuring experts and champions from the field of kickboxing, the cover story throws the spotlight on men who are inspired by fights, albeit in a ring.
They may have been spurred by health and fitness to take up martial arts, but it is the adrenaline pumping experience in the ring and the mental development through disciplined practice that has won them over to this sport.
Men are not categorically confrontational, but in the biological scheme of things, the male primal instinct to fight it out is distinctly evinced in mixed martial arts competitions, which are described as adrenaline-pumping experiences that target both the mind and the body.
This issue of FACES is for men who make life and living exciting. It is packed with stories and feature articles that will explore the world of men: from automobiles and gadgets to fashion and modern elements of lifestyle. In keeping with the interests of young and trendy men, our pages capture what best appeals to masculine needs, including the metrosexual urge for personal care and grooming.
