    This video explains the awesome, unique training techniques of Bruce Lee in detail. This is how he developed his explosive power and speed, as well as his incredibly low bodyfat and amazing endurance.
    Bruce Lee trained using a combination of compound and isolation lifts, as well as lots of running for cardio and bag work for HIIT. He trained a huge amount and was always experimenting and finding new ways to increase his strength, speed and power.
    What was really interesting though was the way he worked his fast twitch muscle fibers and mind-muscle connection. He was ahead of his time as something of a biohacker and used techniques like overcoming isometrics, speed training and iso-contraction. All of which we shall be discussing in this video!

      @@nickkerinklio8239 He was raised by a catholic mother and a buddhist father, but he wasn't following any religion and when asked if he believed in God he said no.
      "Lee felt that anything which substituted the ways or beliefs of others in the place of teaching you how to cultivate your own was a step in the wrong direction. For this reason, Lee was opposed to the doctrines-or rather the dogmas-of organized religion."
      He was however not an materialistic/reductionistic atheists as he was inspired by a wide-range of religions and philosophies, from Taoism to Protestantism.

      Training strenght and power near or above 90% of 1rm does cost speed and explosiviness. So most fighters and sprinters dont lift to heavy to often. They do sport specific strenght workouts and more hiit.
      Thats why i use periodization blocks for each.
      As for Bruce he was more focused on fighting performance, technique, skills and speed.
      I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times. Bruce Lee.

      One’s an actor, and the other is a professional fighter. Kids and video game players don’t understand the difference.
      Fanatical weirdos get overly attached to their fandoms and they can’t handle those of us who look at Bruce Lee as just a human being.
      They just argue and attack instead of thinking objectively. It’s emotional for them, not logical.
      He was incredibly influential in a number of ways. Some deliberately, some by accident.
      For example: It’s not like Bruce set out to create the UFC but Dana White pointed out that without Bruce Lee the UFC probably wouldn’t ever have been conceived.
      The truth is we know very little about what Bruce Lee did.
      Let me ask: Why does it matter? Do you really believe you can copy his moves and become the next Bruce Lee? Are you idiots truly that stupid, insecure and desperate?

      Bruce trained 2 hrs a day. Each workout focused on different aspects of what Bruce felt were the attributes most important to being an effective martial artist (speed, strength, endurance, flexibility, agility, and balance). Anyone has the time for that.
      The key is maximizing intensity during those two hrs and being consistent.

    He trained his forearms daily for isolated kinetics in hard and wrist trappings where he'd lock an opponent's wrists mid strike(s) and simultaneously deliver a series of devastating blows between trappings making it impossible for the opponent to realize that they are being hurt very badly until the moment of contact takes a brief recess. These would have been extremely accurate blows by the way. We have not seen this level of fight science even til this day amongst pro fighters.

    To put things into perspective Bruce could deadlift 721Ibs, the strongest pound for pound lifter today does 608Ibs. Bruce could hold a 90Ib barbell in front of him for over 30 seconds, he could pierce the old style coke cans with just one finger. He could do 1500 push ups without a rest, 400 one handed push ups and 100 thumb push ups. Having mastered fencing and Chah chah he could jump in and reverse jump out of any situation. Bruce was essentially a street fighter, he used his films to show at times what he had been through on the streets of Hong Kong. Having tested Bruce and Muhammad Ali , both fighters had the same punching strength. Bruce's punching strength actually came from his Lats which were abnormally large. With the use of his trans ab core and hips plus a slightly downward punching motion generated from his lats he could punch as hard as a heavyweight. He refused to fight professionally, and with that sort of twitch speed and strength he did any potential opponents a favour if you ask me.

Bruce and Chuck Norris fight in way of dragon is my all time most favorite fight scene . I would have loved to meet either .

    Couple corrections: The term dynamic tension was used widely up until the 80s because of the Charles Atlas program which Bruce used quite a bit. The 1 inch punch power is generated from the rear heel. Grip strength was essential in trapping which is why he trained it so much

    @Spladoinkal Před 4 lety +7

    If you're trying to train like Bruce Lee, this is the way to go. If you just care about his speed it honestly comes down to two things: 1- Strength training so you're muscles have the power to move at higher speeds (a 5x5 weight routine should be good for this) and 2- Neurological speed. This is the part that makes him so capable of striking quickly. Believe it or not you could get this kind of speed by going on the computer, installing a program such as Aimlab or similar aim trainers and working on your aiming speed in games. This will over time increase the speed your brain reacts and thinks and when your mind thinks faster, it thinks faster overall. Even though you're reacting faster to a video game, you'll find that you walk faster, when you drive at a certain speed, it'll seem slower than it used to etc. All that's left after that is doing some punching and kicking practice just so your body gets used to striking at those faster speeds.

But what you have said, im sure is also true. If a car has parts which dont function correctly, a driver can not get the most from it. In the same way if Bruce Lees body/mind/spirit is not in perfect order, and expression he wants to make will be limited by the weakest part.
