@@happymethehappyone8300there is so much myth attributed to a bigger than life person as Bruce Lee was, but we can’t throw reality out the window either. He was a martial artist, philosopher and disciplined man. But he also was a movie star and exhibitionist, so he did fake a lot of the demonstrations because business is business at the end of the day. 😂
@@BimmerBrosExplain why no “ actor “ since has inspired the majority of pro fighters from all walks, and styles? Its been four decades - if he was just an actor then they should all be able to do the same thing. 😂
His co stars in Enter the Dragon also talked about that they would see Bruce training with a kettlebell, doing high rep explosive kettlebell swings. Back then a kettlebell was hardly known about in the west.
Dude was training for speed and explosive power, which allowed him to do that kind of stuff Even now martial artists are training "fast", meaning fast reps and, preferably, a lot of them for endurance.
Endurance and explosive power are two completely opposite adaptions. Trying to do lots of "fast" reps with weights for endurance just makes you slower (versus other training modalities). Why? Because even a "fast" squat rep is slow as hell compared to an actual explosive movement. On top of that the only way to do many reps is to significantly lower the weight. So you're both adapting your body for a slow endurance movement and using low weight which doesn't cause your body to adapt for higher force output. Literally the worst of both worlds. Lower rep heavy weight and then doing sports specific training for your actual explosive movements is how any sports program worth a damn (and Olympic Weightlifters, who are kings of high power high explosive output) train.
@@User-gs1dk And still martial artists manage to use their power for extrended periods of time. Remember that there are different muscle fibers and you need to train them all, and you still can train them for endurance, even the ones responsible for fast, explosive movement. Not speaking of being able to progressively overload, allowing you to do fast reps even with heavier weights, which you can see some of the powerlifters do when they bench crazy amounts of weights for reps and do it fast. And my last sentence can be interpreted as training punches on a bag - you're doing a lot of reps of them and you're pushing yourself to punch fast and this exercise makes sense, because it's literally the punch you will be doing in a fight, with same technique and movement. And you can add weights to punches by using resistance bands or shadow box with weights in hands. I'm not speaking from my ass - I trained with a coach, in an actual martial arts gym, sparred with real people and I judge from my experience, which you might say is wrong and I would agree with you, because everyone's experiences are different.

If you look at the date, it was 1965... he passed in 1973, 8 years is a major difference for a man as disciplined and dedicated as him. 135 lbs when he started, close to 150 lbs when he developed into the martial artist that can side kick a 700 lb bag and actually move it.
Every time I near failure in my bench sets, that “No Chinese or Dogs Allowed” sign from Bruce Lee’s movie flashes in my mind. I remember what my grandpa went through around that era, and then I squeeze out more reps than I thought I originally could.

Emotional setup of person during the preparation and during the workout exercises itself is very important factor of having successful workout. Good emotions (counting also angry) can give additional energy to achieve better results and make more during the session or entire workout, and vice versa: stress or depression made the person down his hands.

He was strong enough due to technical knowledge of how punch and not just using his arm but his entire body, he pushes with his legs first and the fist is just the delivery method

😂 and it's extremely annoying !! I could forgive kids being hyped into thinking this back in the 90s but wow, grown dudes believing this after years of UFC existing and the year being 2023 is a very sad state of affairs.
Additionally, even at one inch, the punch engaged his whole body. Watch his legs and back with that demonstration. He doesn't just punch with his chest, shoulder, and triceps. His legs move, his back moves. That is part of the source of the power behind it.
@@parabalaniSquatting, deadlifting, bench pressing, pull-ups, dips, and shoulder pressing works out pretty much every single muscle in the body. He thought that lifting heavy weight gives you thicker muscles so he would use lighter weight for speed and explosiveness. Come to find out it's the opposite thanks to science. Heavy weight training with single reps and rest days in between will make you not only bigger but even more explosive and athletic. This is the only way for natural lifters to get stronger for any sport, not lifting light weight for days on end. I won't go too hard on Bruce Lee because it was the 70's but the Russians knew about the secret to gaining strength very quickly before the Americans did. The Russians just wanted to capitalize by adding steroids into the mix so their athletes can recover faster from the extremely heavy compound movements.
According to his widow, Lee did not almost lose his match against Huong-Jak-Man, it was just a tedious fight because it took long for Lee to finish it. Some practitioners of Wing-Chun Kung-Fu say it’s because Lee’s training was incomplete.
i think it had to do with the fact that wong jack man was literally running away from Bruce. Wong eventually tripped himself lol. After the fight Bruce was exhausted and realized he needed to work on his cardio more.
Lees wife and friends claim he won other guy claims he won bla bla bla what we know for a fact is Lee refused to have a rematch in front of a crowd after he was accused of losing
After Bruce Lee's fight with Wong Jack Man he realised he needed to work on his cardio. That's why on the first page of his book TAO ☯️ OF JEET KUNE DO is a picture of him JUMPING ROPE! Anyone noticed that? Btw Bruce won that fight with Wong Jack Man.
@j_quan2594 ... If I'm not mistaken he did say that himself many times! Read his book TAO OF JEET KUNE DO to understand his philosophy on fighting better. FYI ... DANA WHITE AND JOE ROGAN BOTH SAID BRUCE LEE IS THE FATHER OF MODERN MMA!
Try it yourself. Attempt to hit something with 0 wind-up, 10 cm away. Then you would get why that is impressive….. or maybe you won’t, given how unobservant you seem to be
Exactly, pushed is the right word here. If all that momentum had come from say a flying metal ball the size of a fist, the guy would get rib fractures and a heart contusion
What I love about Bruce is He was way more advanced than those people in that time with believing in mixed martial arts and body calisthenics naturally
@@liounique1177 still doesn't make him "not very strong" tho You could say a silverback gorilla could clap Hafthor, still doesn't make Hafthor "not very strong"
@@yoeyyoey8937 Chuck Norris and Joe Lewis are 2 names that I remember who admitted to have been beaten in a sparring session. The other name I forgot but he's the Asian dude big and buff that was in one of the movies. Many more famous kickboxers I just can't think of right now but I could easily Google them
The opening seen in Enter the Dragon when he is sparring with one of his comrades you can see his legs were shredded and bulging with muscle fibers. 🔥🔥🔥 🐉
For anyone who wants another analogy about the late Bruce Lee's strength and abilities: he was able to do legit one-armed pushups....FOR REPS. I can barely hit ten with good form.
@@logical_lb3059 Lol, it's a simple historical fact that the film cameras at the time paired with low frame rates made certain movements hard to pick up on film. If I'm not mistaken, Bruce Lee preferred to film at a higher frame rate in order to better capture fast movements.
@@yoeyyoey8937yes but what if a 190 cm guy with wide body does the explosive training the same as Bruce lee does? Maybe then he could even beat Jon jones if he has explosive power
@@farhadaliadel8924 the guy would have to gain weight to be in the same class as Jones. And he would have to do strength training to get more power and athleticism. Not moving around light weights quickly, because that doesn’t really have any real benefits apart from being better than no training at all.
@@farhadaliadel8924 basically I’m saying that what Bruce Lee was doing was not really “explosive training” and wouldn’t be of much help to anyone trying to be a fighter (aside from again, it being better than no training at all)
Absolutely correct but Bruce lee fanboys are delusional. Lee was skinny cos he was addicted to various drugs that ended up killing him very early. If I'm going to live healthy I'm not going to follow a man who died in his 40s..
That actually makes lots of sense. An object that seemingly has no significant amount of weight or force can become lethal when it moves very quickly. He really put a lot of thought into what he wanted to do with himself
That’s how all modern fighters train. That’s why none of the UFC champions know their max bench, pure strength or hypertrophy training literally disadvantages them.
@@watersnortmoment3734 you absolutely right, you need the most strength for the least amount of mass as a fighter, as excess muscle is dead weight, limits your flexibility, and slows down strikes. A hard punch just pushes, whereas a fast punch does far more damage. Newtons second law of motion!
@@Mjbeswick yes when used to no real effective means. All that muscle mass will put them at a disadvantage and really not give them a greater means upon executing their strikes or martial arts skills
Get your facts correct. Bruce did not lose the fight to Wong Jack Man, he was surprised and frustrated how long the fight took and that he became fatigued so changed his style and conditions his body.
@@kingol4801idk why but the body building community (on instagram and shorts ofc) can't seem to understand that some people don't work out to get muscles
Nearly losing? Bruh Bruce comfortably beat the shit outta him, the only thing which made Bruce Lee concerned was his cardio and that wing chun wasn't diverse enough
@@yoeyyoey8937ive seen a tonne of post's from you regarding this topic. I wonder what is your list of accomplished accolades? If its big mouth syndrome id believe it!
@@billygoatgruff2900 I’ve competed in judo and I’m not great but I actually did it instead of beating up a couple of students and telling people how this makes me the greatest fighter of al time
Wrong! Speaking from experience!! Do pushups as quickly and explosively as you can. I used to do ten at a time, chest to the floor and explode to the top. Rest 6-7 minutes. Then do another ten. I went to 170 total reps at one point.
@@solomonstello Cool that you did that, that isn't the best way to grow strength though. You want full range of movement and when the muscles is most stretched to slow and at the bottom of a movement hold for a moment. Explosive movements lets you do more, it doesn't work at making your body stronger.
@@Gabi-bv9uxyou’re thinking from a bodybuilding perspective , yes this doesn’t train strength in the traditional sense but it does EXPLOSIVE power as in the rate of force which is a different kind of strength . I’m sure you’ve heard of plyometrics before and its what fighters train
I actually learned about this in High School gym class. It's the difference between an Accentric (explosive power) vs Eccentric (endurance) workout. You can focus on one depending on which kind of gains you're looking for.
If he had a good physiotherapist and more knowledgeable doctors he could have easily healed that, learned how to do good mornings properly and moved on.
@@austing7254 he did heal that. He put himself through rigorous physical therepy, his doctors told him he sustained ireparable damage and wouldnt be able to do the things he used to. Obviously that did not become the case.
@@Buttz2Buttz No, he got himself back to where he could train and do things but the pain never completely left. There's a lot better physiotherapists and also some better doctors nowadays that won't just say "you'll never be able to do this again". I'd bet that if it happened nowadays he could have made a much better recovery with the right help.
People make it seem like a big deal that Bruce Lee made that dude go back but look at how the guys standing. He is flat on his feet, swuared with Bruce, and a trained Martial Artist give a solid strike to his sternum. Thats not that hard.
People weren’t as well versed back then,that’s honestly one of the reasons why BL is still spoken about. Your explanation is an example of why people weren’t educated on fighting back then because it is well informed and nowadays more people are less prone to BS than back then
He just pushed the guy. Sure, he was good at using his weight. I won't say that there is no power behind it but its just a glorified shove. Look at how the guy is standing. If you stood like that a shove would also push far enough that you'll lose your balance. Its not magic. Look at the first guy. He'd had probably been okay if the chair wasnt there. And if he fell it would have been because he reacted too late to react to the push. The second guy aimed to go to the chair imo. He's all dressed up and he fell on that chair extremely smoothly. Genuinely, push someone standing straight as a cucumber on the chest and see how they move back. They might fall, they might not. But if theres a chair blocking their way theyll fall on the chair lol.
It's not that he is flat on his feet. It's that he is in what is referred to in martial arts as a broken stance. There is nowhere to shift your weight when pushed from that position. If Bruce had been standing to the side and hitting his arm he would have just shifted his weight slightly more to the rear leg and not moved. This is more slight of hand than martial arts.
@@wladynoszhighlights5989 It's there for the show to add the illusion of more explosive power than exists. The push just puts them off balance enough to have the guy fall onto the chair and for his weight and momentum to tip the chair back.
he could apparently do 400 one arm pushups in a row, Im not sure how true this is but I think it's incorrect to say he's weak based on this. though you could say it's a feat of endurance, i'd still say it's wrong to say he's weak. he was also able to do one arm pullups@@yoeyyoey8937

he never ever fought. stop it
2023 and people still believe he was a super man
😂 and it's extremely annoying !!
I could forgive kids being hyped into thinking this back in the 90s but wow, grown dudes believing this after years of UFC existing and the year being 2023 is a very sad state of affairs.
@@oldpostreviver2624agreed
because he is
You've never seen him doing ping pong with nunchakus have you 😂
Say that to the same person who lose to khabib😂😂😂😂😂
Additionally, even at one inch, the punch engaged his whole body. Watch his legs and back with that demonstration. He doesn't just punch with his chest, shoulder, and triceps. His legs move, his back moves. That is part of the source of the power behind it.
I tapped the like button as fast as possible to train my explosive taps.
Actually the guy who went "flying" is the one who needed to be trained 😅
This shows the weight training improves you in anyway "NEVER STOP LIFITING"
In his book he said he trained only some of the muscles because training other muscles makes your movements slower
@@parabalaniSquatting, deadlifting, bench pressing, pull-ups, dips, and shoulder pressing works out pretty much every single muscle in the body. He thought that lifting heavy weight gives you thicker muscles so he would use lighter weight for speed and explosiveness. Come to find out it's the opposite thanks to science. Heavy weight training with single reps and rest days in between will make you not only bigger but even more explosive and athletic. This is the only way for natural lifters to get stronger for any sport, not lifting light weight for days on end. I won't go too hard on Bruce Lee because it was the 70's but the Russians knew about the secret to gaining strength very quickly before the Americans did. The Russians just wanted to capitalize by adding steroids into the mix so their athletes can recover faster from the extremely heavy compound movements.
@@criticalcerebral I don't know how you're calling it rest days if you're a fighter because I was in the gym everyday except the weekend lol
I heard he won but realize his body was not conditioned
He said nearly lost meaning he was close to losing but still won

There will never be another Bruce Lee ☯️🐉💐
According to his widow, Lee did not almost lose his match against Huong-Jak-Man, it was just a tedious fight because it took long for Lee to finish it. Some practitioners of Wing-Chun Kung-Fu say it’s because Lee’s training was incomplete.
i think it had to do with the fact that wong jack man was literally running away from Bruce. Wong eventually tripped himself lol. After the fight Bruce was exhausted and realized he needed to work on his cardio more.
Lees wife and friends claim he won other guy claims he won bla bla bla what we know for a fact is Lee refused to have a rematch in front of a crowd after he was accused of losing
After Bruce Lee's fight with Wong Jack Man he realised he needed to work on his cardio. That's why on the first page of his book TAO ☯️ OF JEET KUNE DO is a picture of him JUMPING ROPE! Anyone noticed that? Btw Bruce won that fight with Wong Jack Man.
Yea because she definitely gonna say "it was close but bruce won" ofc shes gonna say that
@j_quan2594 ... If I'm not mistaken he did say that himself many times! Read his book TAO OF JEET KUNE DO to understand his philosophy on fighting better. FYI ... DANA WHITE AND JOE ROGAN BOTH SAID BRUCE LEE IS THE FATHER OF MODERN MMA!
"245 lb." Man: *standing with feet side by side*
*gets pushed off-balance*
Onlookers: 🤯
Try it yourself. Attempt to hit something with 0 wind-up, 10 cm away. Then you would get why that is impressive….. or maybe you won’t, given how unobservant you seem to be
Exactly, pushed is the right word here. If all that momentum had come from say a flying metal ball the size of a fist, the guy would get rib fractures and a heart contusion

You try
True
I hope you guys continue this program! This is so helpful and timely topic that needs to be addressed and you are doing a great job! God bless 🙏🏾
What I love about Bruce is He was way more advanced than those people in that time with believing in mixed martial arts and body calisthenics naturally

its a push, not a punch. yall gullible
The opening seen in Enter the Dragon when he is sparring with one of his comrades you can see his legs were shredded and bulging with muscle fibers. 🔥🔥🔥 🐉
For anyone who wants another analogy about the late Bruce Lee's strength and abilities: he was able to do legit one-armed pushups....FOR REPS. I can barely hit ten with good form.
this is just sad
Bro one arm push ups are easy if he did one arm handstand push ups that would be impressive
Bro yall dumb or something, his 2 finger pushups record is stil one of the greatest and he even did a one finger push up.
Bro not one arm but 2 finger pushups clean 200 sets in continues creates a world record😅.
😂. I was doing those at 16yrs old.
Bruce Lee was so fast it was said he needed to slow down his punches in movies so the cameras can still see them
Thats fake and gay
Cap
@@logical_lb3059 Lol, it's a simple historical fact that the film cameras at the time paired with low frame rates made certain movements hard to pick up on film. If I'm not mistaken, Bruce Lee preferred to film at a higher frame rate in order to better capture fast movements.
😂😂😂😂
Bruce Lee? The strongest man of all times,simple!!!
Just factually wrong and incorrect.
One of the few ppl that I looked up to. R.I.P
Also his mind was a whole different level he meditated for long periods of time as well very focused mind set

@@yoeyyoey8937yes but what if a 190 cm guy with wide body does the explosive training the same as Bruce lee does? Maybe then he could even beat Jon jones if he has explosive power
@@farhadaliadel8924 the guy would have to gain weight to be in the same class as Jones. And he would have to do strength training to get more power and athleticism. Not moving around light weights quickly, because that doesn’t really have any real benefits apart from being better than no training at all.
@@farhadaliadel8924 basically I’m saying that what Bruce Lee was doing was not really “explosive training” and wouldn’t be of much help to anyone trying to be a fighter (aside from again, it being better than no training at all)
What he achieved and accomplished in his lifetime others could only dream of doing not even in a hundred years..
Whoa!!! Eaze-up there, lambchop!
He didn't send that dude backwards the dude sold that punch
Absolutely correct but Bruce lee fanboys are delusional. Lee was skinny cos he was addicted to various drugs that ended up killing him very early. If I'm going to live healthy I'm not going to follow a man who died in his 40s..
Force is equal to mass x acceleration
King of martial arts/Even in the afterlife!
Where's the 245lbs man that went flying?
You didn't see him cuz the speed was much higher 😂
That actually makes lots of sense. An object that seemingly has no significant amount of weight or force can become lethal when it moves very quickly.
He really put a lot of thought into what he wanted to do with himself
That’s how all modern fighters train. That’s why none of the UFC champions know their max bench, pure strength or hypertrophy training literally disadvantages them.
@@watersnortmoment3734 you absolutely right, you need the most strength for the least amount of mass as a fighter, as excess muscle is dead weight, limits your flexibility, and slows down strikes. A hard punch just pushes, whereas a fast punch does far more damage. Newtons second law of motion!
@@Mjbeswick yes when used to no real effective means. All that muscle mass will put them at a disadvantage and really not give them a greater means upon executing their strikes or martial arts skills

*what a genius.
Get your facts correct. Bruce did not lose the fight to Wong Jack Man, he was surprised and frustrated how long the fight took and that he became fatigued so changed his style and conditions his body.
If you watch closely, can see the guys launching themselves back. They still have a leg down on the ground and after that they accelerate.
ask someone strong to push you in that manner and you will find out
Ngl being so skinny to the point you look like you have a life threatening sickness but having explosive strenght is just the most badass thing

Walking with a friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.
My parents: Don’t do those push-ups so fast, it won’t do any good for you.
They are correct. This video is nonesense.
Wrong! Speaking from experience!!
Do pushups as quickly and explosively as you can. I used to do ten at a time, chest to the floor and explode to the top. Rest 6-7 minutes.
Then do another ten. I went to 170 total reps at one point.
@@solomonstello Cool that you did that, that isn't the best way to grow strength though. You want full range of movement and when the muscles is most stretched to slow and at the bottom of a movement hold for a moment. Explosive movements lets you do more, it doesn't work at making your body stronger.
@@solomonstelloBro tell me everything you did my guy is plz, I need these information
@@Gabi-bv9uxyou’re thinking from a bodybuilding perspective , yes this doesn’t train strength in the traditional sense but it does EXPLOSIVE power as in the rate of force which is a different kind of strength . I’m sure you’ve heard of plyometrics before and its what fighters train
If Bruce was alive he'd be the leader of the Expandables.
Is that the porn version of the Expendables? 😂
I actually learned about this in High School gym class. It's the difference between an Accentric (explosive power) vs Eccentric (endurance) workout. You can focus on one depending on which kind of gains you're looking for.

You also left out the “good mornings with 95 lbs” that also destroyed his back
and eventually killed him. (complications from pain meds)
If he had a good physiotherapist and more knowledgeable doctors he could have easily healed that, learned how to do good mornings properly and moved on.
people do heavy good mornings all the time, is that really what fucked his back up?
@@austing7254 he did heal that. He put himself through rigorous physical therepy, his doctors told him he sustained ireparable damage and wouldnt be able to do the things he used to. Obviously that did not become the case.
@@Buttz2Buttz No, he got himself back to where he could train and do things but the pain never completely left. There's a lot better physiotherapists and also some better doctors nowadays that won't just say "you'll never be able to do this again". I'd bet that if it happened nowadays he could have made a much better recovery with the right help.
HE'S A LEGEND
Makes perfect sense. We're always on the inside looking out. Therefore, it's always good to step outside of ourselves and look in.

People make it seem like a big deal that Bruce Lee made that dude go back but look at how the guys standing. He is flat on his feet, swuared with Bruce, and a trained Martial Artist give a solid strike to his sternum. Thats not that hard.
People weren’t as well versed back then,that’s honestly one of the reasons why BL is still spoken about. Your explanation is an example of why people weren’t educated on fighting back then because it is well informed and nowadays more people are less prone to BS than back then
He just pushed the guy. Sure, he was good at using his weight. I won't say that there is no power behind it but its just a glorified shove. Look at how the guy is standing. If you stood like that a shove would also push far enough that you'll lose your balance.
Its not magic.
Look at the first guy. He'd had probably been okay if the chair wasnt there. And if he fell it would have been because he reacted too late to react to the push.
The second guy aimed to go to the chair imo. He's all dressed up and he fell on that chair extremely smoothly.
Genuinely, push someone standing straight as a cucumber on the chest and see how they move back. They might fall, they might not. But if theres a chair blocking their way theyll fall on the chair lol.
It's not that he is flat on his feet. It's that he is in what is referred to in martial arts as a broken stance. There is nowhere to shift your weight when pushed from that position. If Bruce had been standing to the side and hitting his arm he would have just shifted his weight slightly more to the rear leg and not moved. This is more slight of hand than martial arts.
That guy who is maybe 5'8" is DEFINITELY not a "245 pound man" 🙄
Some sources say it was Joe Lewis, but it can't be that guy was to short and small, Joe was 6ft and over 200 pounds,
I was hoping someone would point this out. Bruce was a small guy, I think 125lbs? The other guy was not much bigger.
i wished Bruce was alive to share his wisdom
He hit him in the center of the whole body balance.
It's really easy when the guy you're 1 inch punching is standing as relaxed as possible and not fighting back
With a chair right behind him for him to trip over. Clearly just a circus trick...
@@spyroninja Ofc there is a chair if the chance is high he will fall down.
Circus trick to just show what can you achieve. Of course that it almost never would work in real fight, LOL
@@wladynoszhighlights5989 It's there for the show to add the illusion of more explosive power than exists.
The push just puts them off balance enough to have the guy fall onto the chair and for his weight and momentum to tip the chair back.
Power over muscles, that's real strength 💪
Edit: Y'all stop arguing with no evidence or facts.
Yeah but he was extremely weak. If he trained right then he could be strong for his size
Exactly. Better than big useless muscles.
he could apparently do 400 one arm pushups in a row, Im not sure how true this is but I think it's incorrect to say he's weak based on this. though you could say it's a feat of endurance, i'd still say it's wrong to say he's weak. he was also able to do one arm pullups@@yoeyyoey8937
