When I was 21/22 I did Bruce Lee's training for 3 months (the summer). I followed the program of "Bruce Lee Jeet Kune Do" book, and it consisted of 6 hours of training, 2 hours morning, noon, and evening. I had weight training session, stamina and core training session, and martial arts training session. I remember I used to do 1650 punches on MWF and 1000 kicks on T TH S. I focused on speed and strength. I did not grow in muscle size, but my strength increased a lot and my punching speed was insane. My kicks got faster but nothing impressive. Of course, summer ended and all that free time was gone and I had to drop this spartan regimen of workout. I think it's a good workout to do for a season in a year (if one is preparing for a fight) but not at all healthy for long term.
Thank you, Arnold said he trained 2-3hours morning and night and in between he studied, he worked, this guy has no idea the dedication some people have towards their goals!!!
@FERDİ BEKÇE if anyone tries to fight in a style they aren't used too they wont be at their best. Brucle lee combined a bunch of fighting styles and put them together to make his own.
You have to traing for yers to archive near at his speed bat you h you hsve to traing very hsr almost 7 hour at day mayby after 6 or 10 ye years you cen be nearly his speed bruce lee training ate 13 stsry at 13 yers sow if sombady training at 20 and later is very hatd to be fast to be more faster
@@brucedent5402 bro if I throw a pebble behind blindfolded old man lee he'd react to it and in the middle of his reaction I'd take his back and lay serious pipe.
Read the article "like warn marble" and also, "the art of expressing the human body" by Bruce Lee. It outlines his training routines and diet. My entire training routine is based on those two sources.
I’ve seen some of the beerdys videos, it’s not hard to see it’s nonsense. Bruce Lee said there’s a lot of hype when it comes to fighting martial arts and training you have to learn how to cut out the hype. That is exactly what you’ve done. you seem to have a very good understanding of what it was. Bruce was trying to teach. thank you.
Bruce's work out training is actually on how to become macho and attractive physically but it is heavily connected on his fighting arts conditioning ..Bruce Lee is a serious martial artist making all his tools with a deadly caliber ...
The work out that you described beginning at 16:23 in this Video, is basically what the U.S. Navy S.E.A.L.s were doing when I was at SBU-24 in the U.S. Navy. It will build Power. However the S.E.A.L.s that I knew emphasized muscular endurance over bulk. Basically, Muscular endurance and speed were more important than how much weight you could lift.
Check “Supertrainning” from Vershonshansky. Aside isometrics, like pointed in the vid, there’s a concept in muscular power development related to the angle of how grow muscular tissue. That angle is influenced by load (weight) BUT speed (power) of the movement. Targetting different goals (bulking, power, speed…) require accurate control of speed for each repetition for the “proposed” load and that measurement is performed by lineal encoders (or nowadays accelerometers inside an smartwatch) so if you can’t perform the proposed exercices at its defined parameters… trainer send you home to avoid your muscles get another adaptation instead the one you are targetting. This has lots of implications to just explain them in this short(?) comment but this + isometrics > is the key for powerxpound trainning and one of the selling points for whole body vibration devices or inestability trainning (with bosu-like gear) and also isokinetic pulleys like yo-yo machines and versapulleys (eccentric workout improves that muscle angle growing KEEPing flexibility) that remeble to a certain degree that Dragon isometric machine showed in the video… Hope this helps someone (I will copy it into general comment) Peace.
Mr. Goldenbell Sir, Much respect to you. I found your page on accident several months ago. You are calm, knowledgeable, and assertive. Keep up the great work as the industry needs people like you. -Many Respects-Drew
I love how you broke it down and made it practicable, I've been following the Bioneer for some years now too as well as Bruce and this was an amazing one, thank you.
Kettlebell guru Pavel met with John Saxon (Roper in ETD) and Saxon said that Bruce showed him kettlebell exercises in Hong Kong during filming. You can see Saxon pressing a 32kg kettlebell in Pavel's 2nd edition of "Simple and Sinister" book. As always, enjoyed this video.
I’m glad you called out Beerdy! Because I have commented on multiple videos that his facts, videos and photos are incorrect. I have trained in martial arts for 40 years and Bruce Lee was the reason I started. Goldenbell Training keep up the great work.
Found your chan when I was looking for funny Seagall footage. Thanks for the video, I have seen some of Beardy's vids. Bruce Lee has fascinated me since my childhood back in the 70s😊 Always enjoy your thoughtful presentation.
You are a very engaging individual, sir. I'm a martial artist of 14 years and a personal trainer and even though I really have no reason to still be watching, 19minutes in now, I'm still here!
I'm a marine corps veteran and a fan of Bruce lee since I first discovered him in the early 90's. I realized if I done a similar exercise routine I would have been in great shape most of my life and it would have been easier to maintain. At age 39(soon to be 40) and out of shape, if I was to start now I know i would have to endure alot of pain and have to adjust my diet as I'm now a type 1 diabetic. 🤷♂️ Thanks again for covering a great legend in human history.
40 is very young. Just find what you like to do so you will more likely to do it. I'm 68 and putting together a list of what I want to do before I die. They are Nunchucks, Fandabi Dozi's (Bo) Staff training, Kohji Katoh's Tonfa, Tim Shieff's Rope Flow, Strength Side's Animal Flow, GMB Fitness's Tumbling, Weight training, Landmine, and TRX. Some of these were not possible even a few years ago because you didn't have YT videos to learn from. Good luck.
I am glad I found and subscribed To your channel. The fact that this was so informative and so hilarious at times totally made my day, thank you. Laughter is really the best meds
As usual from our navy training, we know that we have to do proper investigative research and stick to the facts. Ever since I was a kid, I have witnessed so many people, jumping on the Bruce Lee coattails to get attention and recognition. You are definitely one who keeps his name Full of respect and is much appreciated from all of us who loved him. Namaste
Great video man. You have the best Bruce Lee and martial arts channel on RUclips. I'm curious where in Asia do you live?. Keep up the great work brother. Thanks for sharing this.
If Chuck Norris train for 5 hours, and Chuck said, that Bruce Lee was the hardest training person he ever seen, than maybe Bruce train for more than 2 hours.
Incredibly well thought out, modern look at how Bruce would train. As a CF instructor, on and off life long martial arts enthusiast and gym owner I LOVE THIS MAN. I’d love to give it a try, (it’s nearly what our gym programming is weekly) especially the isometrics which I’ve personally never done before. I love your channel, attitude and particularly that you regularly shit on beardy 😂😂
because of my genetics I could never get big, I did train by eating everthing and excercising as much as possible. I did get ripped but I'm not very big. But Bruce Lee's physical condition was my goal....I'm 61 years old and started when I saw Bruce Lee when I first saw him in the 60's. Just started following your Facebook page
I’m the opposite. I gain muscle easily, especially in the arms and back, but I lived on salad and chicken for a year while running 2 miles a day with my martial arts and weight training. Never got ripped.
When I trained hardcore while living in Korea, in addition to feeling stronger, my mind was sharper than it has ever been. I eventually got complacent and fell out of my routine
this is the first video i have watched of yours, thank you! I was pleasantly surprised and the information you put out is spot on. Subscribed, please don’t stop making videos. I have to ask, have your neighbors ever caught you in the common areas of your apartment (because the video you shared)? mine did before on bad weather days when i was active duty and thought I was not all there because of some of the exercises i was doing haha. Great video!

@@GoldenbellTraining tank you for your research I'm boxer and a black belt karaté and judo kickboxing Muay Thai and I fight in the street since I was child and I try defferent thinks but no one know how really Bruce Lee train because to achieve that level you have to train perfectly and to variate defferent mothode's of strength conditioning training and martial art training
As usual, Beardy's Videos leave a lot to be desired. You on the other hand do solid research and present information in a manner that can be clearly understood. As far as Internal Martial Arts training goes I don't know of any Chi Gong or Tai Qi work outs that last longer then 45 minutes sans physical conditioning. In fact most of the Instructors I know of advise only doing 15 to 30 Minutes of Tai Qi, Chi Gong, Hsing Yi or other Internal Martial Arts, 2 to 3 times a day and any more than that is unnecessary with the exception of sitting Meditation and even then Meditating for more than an hour is rare unless you are a Monk or Priest or are doing Chanting or external Qi Healing and even then doing any of those for more than 30 minutes at a time is for Advanced Practioners.
Tai Chi Kung means Harmonisation of Cultivated Energy being Cultivated Energy the Chi Kung part of that. Without Chi Kung (Cultivated “Energy”) isn’t possible any kind of Harmonisation. Can someone do larger Chi kung trainnings? Of course but if these are done right that person will “accumulate” enough ammount of Chi to feel unnecessary keep accumulating. I will not say “there’s a finite amount to accumulate” but as you pointed if you aren’t into specific Chi use and you reached your own “health” with less time… why continue? OTOH that Cultivation requires other things aside Chi Kung “gymnastics” such a sexual energy trainning (or almost knowledge and coherence) that usual people not very commited to themselves can keep like monks and traninng more time will not solve that (meditation will be more effective) but even so… there are certain stages of Chi level and when you arrive to “certain” level it becomes a connection with the Universal source where you manage to work with that source and Harmonise (Tai) not only your own Chi but the Chi around you or in words of Sifu Lee “Then it got beaten by itself” because Chi as “energy” can generate (new) life, re-generate (a)live or preserve life balancing the Tao… “when my opponent expands I contract, when he contracts I expand and where there’s a gap…” Do you remember that dialogue with the monk at (directors not cut version of) Enter the Dragon? Tao is nature, Chi is the body of Universal Conciousness and Life in coherence with those is Joy of Infinity Love. I&I Peace 🙏🏻
Like his martial arts, Bruce Lee's cross training regime evolved to meet the needs of what he required, his ripped definition was the result of very precise and calculated working. It is described in the four books an overview of the resistance exercises which are creating strength in core stabilisers and focused on pulling power, grip strength and a hard, lean physique. One of his hollywood friends, i forget which one, said he was like steel all over so developed a density without bulk which is more easily achieved by hovering in the hypertrophic. He was also obsessed with having incredible forearm and tricep strength more than stupidly bulky undefined biceps inhibiting fast arm movement...
@@jamesfaircloth8588 actually there is no diffrence when you take into consideration how face the muscles twitch and movie..there is fundamentally no diffrence
@@josephperkins4857 There is a differrence why do you think boxers like anthony joshua lost some fights years ago he had bulked up to much so he did not have the stamina to keep going and was beaten by someone not even in good shape simply because he did not have the energy to keep going all because he had put on to much muscle he tired out becuse he had put on to much muscle which is why bruce lee did weight training but did not want to bulk up to much
@@jamesfaircloth8588 dude 1) just because a person is hitting the weights does NOT mean they automatically have to bulk up 2),plus Olympic weight lifting requires the development of SPEED,and 3) Bruce Lee also did include some Olympic lifts in his training,plus doing regular execises like squats ,curls etc etc with a high speed..so your bias is null and void dude
Keep this coming, I want to see and learn more on how he lived and trained. I never trained or anything but I’m not out of shape, I will start tho. I just want to live life like how he did, his water quote saved me today. Now I just want to live teach life differently to people that see it in a wrong way like how I did.
So I been training like Bruce Lee for about 6 years, now... I've been evolving my training regime constantly. I finally got everything calibrated just the way I wanted, so far. My first thing was to take, Isometric and cables (curcuit) with stretching - First part Weight training with Forearms and core - Second part, always stretch before and after weight training And power (heavy bag) and speed training with my added martial arts training: that includes the mechanics of each strike and defensive movements plus reflexes with flexibility (further stretching)
When I was in my early 20s and doing amateur MMA I would train 2 to 3 times a day,2 hours each session 5 days a week. Each session focused on a different aspect, like stand up one session, grappling another session, and some strength and Conditioning others sessions. I was in great shape. And that was 20 years ago,lol.
I try to train doing 2 sets of exercises from book of Bruce "The Art of Expessing the Human Body". I train 5 days a week and on Saturdays I watch and train from videos from my JDK instructor mixed with boxing exercises...
I’m 44 years old and took 2 years off from bjj/kickboxing. I’m slowly starting back up to still active for my kids. Do you suggest for Phase 2 adding sprints in the 10 minute warmup and also adding more weights or sticking with moderate weights to the Weigh lifting part?
He trained big compound full body barbell excercises 3 times per week for about 2 sets 8-12 and later added some circuit training on machines.He also trained isometric,bodyweight exercises,running,skipping,bicycling and alot of martial arts.He trained for power,speed and better himself as a martial artist,not as a bodybuilder.That 1 year video guy is wrong.
I watch this channel a couple times a week. And everything that's said makes sense. You definitely do your homework. And not just regurgitate the same bs. That everyone else passes around.
All you need is your body, resistant bands, Punching bog and yoga mat. You could even go with any weight. Explosive power training is great. I have this smaller yellow resistance band that looks like figure 8 and you put it behind your back and shadows boxing with this resistance and calisthenics and your punching with becomes so much quicker
I followed bruce lee's Training regiment for 5 years straight from ages 20 to 25. It was awesome, results were good but not satisfying. Now i follow teri toms advice, train smarter not harder and my results are a lot better now. 😊🙏🐉
Bruce did do bodybuilding training and injured his back from doing heavy good mornings. According to Linda, near his death, Bruce was on a mostly liquid diet, recently had his sweat glands removed, couldn't cool off and literally drink himself to death is whats theorized. Crazy
Such a powerful video. I have a question. I’ve discovered Mike Mentzer’s HIT training Regimen. I’m very interested. But I’m also very interested in Bruce Kee’es method of training. Is there a way to combine these types of training regimen to become a supreme athlete/ fighter?
Damn, you did track in college? That's pretty cool. I did in high school and then wasn't quite good enough for my division 1 school's cross-country program. The runs were actually one of the more intimidating parts of what I read of Bruce Lee's training. He went pretty hard most days of the week.
Bruce's Daughter has a podcast and she reads what a day for Bruce was really like. Look into her podcast it's really interesting and helps you realize he didn't train all day every day.
I have been alive since 1975 and have watched and researched Bruce since the 80's and I have never heard anybody say including him that he did steroids or like you said cocaine and I use to have his workout book and other books by him and I never saw where he did ten sets on weightlifting exercises it was usually 5 or less and he was a fitness and martial arts fanatic.I never remember seeing where he trained for 14 hours a day.
I wanted to be like BL when I was young (10-15). I studied and trained in a few different arts. It was weird though, because I had a lot of books on BL and I suspected he did drugs because there was one picture of him after the release of one of his early films in china. His eyes were bloodshot and I suspected that he smoked weed. Turns out he was medicating himself from pain, and he used them to get ideas. I still love you BL. Your teachings will always inspire to to be a better human being.
Follow Brucel Lee exercise routine. Take side to side move for 600 time and push up first to 80-100 first push ups and extend second push up 30 to 50., and there are some more exercise you can do. I am doing this for more than 7yrs.
Very cool video incidentally there's like a 5-hour podcast about Bruce Lee they mentioned some interesting things they claim he ate and such and some insane training I don't know where they got it from or what's what but it is quite interesting
0:15 that is lei tai. Sanda has different rules, clothing and uses simple mats. Lei tai allows you to fight with pants, shoes, and color T-shirts, As well as the platform for the lei tai is a couple feet off the ground.
Today more is known and better applied to physical conditioning in combat sports than in B.L.'s time, no need to copy him in detail! In addition, the training that he devised for himself is the best that could be applied according to his personal characteristics and objectives, let's not forget the training principle of individualization: methods, loads, phases, etc., must be adapted to each combatant. individually.
Thank you for this video on Bruce Lee training.Meanwhile,it is sad to trivialize the personal life performance of the one and only perfect martial artist like Bruce Lee.He consecrated all his life to bring a new dawn of light in martial arts.He was God- gifted, reason why in 1971 the slogan sayed"1971,Bruce Lee shakes the world"mostly with his 400 two finger push-ups!
Beerdy lost all credibility with him making up Bruce Lee stories from old pictures. Even called Guro Dan Inosanto ‘Karate Master Baxter’ in one of his videos. How can you train in JKD and not at least have heard of Guro Dan?? His ‘train like Bruce Lee’ video was hilarious for all the wrong reasons. And like you said-it strongly suggests that Beerdy doesn’t even train at all. Like you my sources are Bruce Lee’s training logs and books by his students and by John Little as well as the various articles in magazines I’d collected over the years. Your video is a good one on this subject. Subbed
Even before that with me -- when he idiotically tried to claim that a man helping him in one of the demonstrations was Joe Lewis (despite the man being several inches shorter & 50-70 lbs lighter).
Oh wee, for all those who say Bruce wouldn't win in a real fight with top pro's of the today. Well most [ro's don't have the skill and agility Bruce had or his speed and power. Let alone them not train ing 10+hrs a day. That what bruce was doing is Shaolin training. Mom's of the Shaolin temple train 10-12 he every day.
I'm just reading Art of Expressing the Human Body. The question I've got is about time. Let's say I'm training martial arts 3x a week (and I work full time of course). So assuming it's 8 hrs a day 5x a week I got 2 trainings in the week and 1 in the weekend. On a weekday training my whole day is full (work, little rest, eat, go train, go to bed). One day in the week almost always I gotta run some errenads. So that leaves 2 week days after work with a little free time and 1 whole free day (Sunday), Saturday MA training. When the hell can I/ should I do weight training /condition/ circuit training? Do you have any tips for time management?
He is exact right about German Volume Training. It will fry your CNS system and it will be all you have time for. Its amazing for simple Bodybuilding Gains, but not for Martial Artists.
The reality of Bruce Lee's routines is that you could actually do more than him if you don't restrict your calories like you're trying to maintain a ripped physique or stay at the same size all the time. Up to a point, more calories and sleep = more recovery = more results.
Bruce didn't restrict his calories until he went on that liquid diet that appears to have contributed to his death, according to a recent research paper But yes, someone would get better results with more rest & recovery. There isn't much need for more training for a person who is not a full-time martial artist
@@GoldenbellTraining True, his walking around size was bigger than people think, but on the flip side the popular image of him always shredded to the gills can lead to people chasing calorie restriction alongside performance, which will end up giving them neither a Bruce Lee physique nor Bruce Lee Performance in the end.
Totally agree with the look being a result of being obsessed with the art and the technique. I don't lift weights at all, I just do jiujitsu and use the inversion boots.
Most people do not understand exercise science... moving a heavyweight you're working The Agonist and the antagonist muscle... isometric training you're working The Agonist minus the antagonist muscles.
2-4 hours for advanced training. I trained for 1 and 1/2 for fitness for most of 2011, 2 and 1/2 to 4 for most of 2013, and 2 and 1/2 to 4 for most of 2015. It can be risky because there were times when id get lightheaded especially while standing, but I believe the key is rest because after laying off for a few days to a week the lightheaded thing goes away.. he probably should have taken breaks to allow his body to catch up.
i spent one summer, about 3 months just walking and eating spinach salads with tuna fish... and eating rice and beans also... i drank nothing but cider... i lost weight and felt pretty healthy... so i proved you can lose weight with minimal exercise (walking every day 2-3 km) but also i proved that you dont get fat from alcohol and it doesnt dehydrate you - else i would have died right?) it was weak cider.. im not saying u can drink whiskey and nothing else... low alcohol beer or cider still gives you water. i ate twice a day... enough to fill me up.. i was never hungry... and i drank one big bottle of cider with each meal..
His workout isn't really in there, but it's a good place to start. If you watched the first video in the series, you'd know that I used it as a resource 😉
I used to train anywhere from 4 to 8 hrs a day... But not all in one block. When I first started out, I was able to take the Day and Night classes, at my Wing Chun School. Each class was 2hrs long. The first hour, was a full hardcore "Core" workout routine, with some stretching mixed in there. 3 sets of +60 Crunches, 3 sets of Pushups, 3 min or so Leg Spins + Lifts (each set mentioned, typically had different types per set.. such as 3 different types of pushups). Then the remaining class was a combination of instruction, partner drills, and a few more special attribute creating "Exercises" (like Squats, speed drills, leg hold-outs, and more). After the class, I would bike back home.. and then bike back to the next class, several hours later. I was getting about 2hrs of Biking, along with 4hrs of Martial Arts + Workout. That was 4 days per week... but that was just the START of things: In addition to training IN school... I would get home, and start Practicing what I had learned OUTSIDE of School. I repeated the entire 1hr workout at home, every single day that I was not doing it twice at school... and I was doing it every day that I wasnt at school. I would start throwing a series of punches, kicks, and or hand-techs... about every 15 minutes, all throughout the day and night... no matter where I was, Including when I was working. As such... I would, for example... go to the back room at work, and throw anywhere from 30 seconds to 2 minutes worth of techs... then go back out to the floor. If I was waiting in a long line at the bank, or just waiting between customers.. Id be standing on one leg (sometimes even extending the raised leg to hip height). If I was walking from my car through the malls parking lot.. Id be throwing techs. Same when walking in the malls halls. If I walked past a tree that had leaves on it.. Id target a leaf, and kick it. If there was a Parking Lot Post.. Id Heel kick it. If there was a high hanging sign, Id also try to jump kick it. I also had built a home "Dojo", so that when I got back home from work.. and after classes... I would then be able to work at home, to the maximum potentials. I had a custom made Sandbag section... with TWO 3-Section sandbag units, mounted vertically.. giving a total of 6 targets in a straight line. The top 3, for barehand punches, the low three, for barefoot kicks. The top mount, was moved about 1 ft forwards, so that you could reach both your hands, and legs... to impact at the same time (as your legs are longer than your arms, so the top bags needed to be closer). The top mount was Pinned in place... but you could remove the pin... and "Punch" the assembly... causing it to slide backwards as you hit it. In this way, you could use the sandbags for both Impact conditioning, as well as Penetration development. I also had a standard kick bag, a 6ft tall Muay Thai bag (real leather)... which were mounted to a long metal gas pipe, that ran the entire span of the Attic. This allowed you to be able to do a sidekick... and have the bag slide along the pipe.. to see how far you could make it travel. I had cut the metal chain off of these bags... and replaced them with 2" Strapping material. This made them more quiet... and it provided more Friction, to make moving the bags harder. When I wanted to train statically.. I had two Screw Hooks mounted into the Attic Rafters, and I would attack a bungee cords to them, and around the bags strapping, to prevent it from Sliding when hit. The smaller and lighter canvas bag.. was used for deep penetration kicking. And the Muay Thai bag, I used for general kicking (Front kicks, Crescents, Jump and Spinning kicks, hooks, and more). I also had built a custom "Kick" Dummy. I had a steel seller cut me off three 7ft tall sections, of metal pipe. Each pipe was 4 inches in diameter, with a thickness of nearly 1cm (Schd 40). I mounted the pipes between two wooden circles (MDF circles, and 6 PVC pipe flanges). The were placed in a Triangle shape... so that your single leg could reach all of the pipes... similar to the half-height wooden stumps seen in Leung Tings old "Wing Tsung" video. The difference with my Dummy, is that I could train mine Indoors... and that the Pipes didnt move at all.. when kicked (you were Hard Leather bottomed dress shoes, when kicking them. No rubber / foam.. to cushion or rebound your impact). Also, mine were a full 7ft tall... which meant that the upper part of the pipes could be used to Grind your arms on... or could even be Struck with handstrikes. I also had a center mounting hook on the top circle... in which I could hang a canvas bag, filled with about 15 lbs worth of steel bbs. This then allowed me to train kicks and punches, and combinations, on the same Dummy. Yet you could remove the bag easily... for footwork that involved passing between the pipes. I also built a custom Iron-Leg shin conditioning bag... using an old pair of Jeans. I cut both pant legs off, and doubled them, for maximum strength. Tied the legs at the bottom. Then I took 3 pairs of sand-filled wrist-weights... and Duct tapped each pair tightly together... and stuffed them all into the pantlegs. Next, I Tied the top closed, and ran a rope loop through the knot.. so that it could be hung from the Loop. I then hung a metal chain from my ceiling mounted pipe... and I could use a spring hook to lock the bag to any height I chose... via any of the chains links. Finally.. I used duct tape, and tightly wrapped the entire Jean Leg, so that it was as Tightly packed as possible (Several layers worth of tape). Even the lightest of Shin Taps with this, felt like you were impacting a solid Rock. I also did traditional Iron Body training... Hitting my own body, with my own fists / hands. Typical sessions were 1hr long, and spanning every part of my body.. including chopping my own throat. Additionally, I was teaching some private students (not in the very beginning).. and I started trying to spar, about 1yr into my training. I would eventually spar every weekend, against fighters from various different arts. Often choosing to spar against dudes that were up to 2x my own mass and strength. Also, note, that my sessions with the Kick dummy, or hitting the sandbags... tended to be a MINIMUM of 1hr sessions. Same with the Iron body conditioning. Typically.. on most drills.. I would strive for 15 minute nonstop sets, with about 2min or less between sets, depending on the drill type. I would often go right from workout, to kicking the bag for 1hr, to punching the sandbags for 1hr... and some other stuff in between... and thats not even counting the in-school work, before any of that took place... Nor the hundreds of handtechs and kicks I had thrown all throughout the day, earlier. I maintained that level of Pace and Intensity, for a Solid 3 yrs time, before easing up. After my 3rd year, I had reached Masterclass levels of output... and it was very rare that the local artists could even get a single hit on me. This isnt to brag.. but merely to show the differences in results, from a Casual artist... to someone whom trains 24x7, as a Daily way of Life. As someone whom actually was able to fully master everything to the Fullest extend of what ones body is capable of.
@@thetruth1862 You cant teach Dedication / Motivation. Either you are Obsessive, or you are not. It did help, that back then, I didnt even own a computer... so I had little in the way of distraction. I grew up in poverty.. and wasnt able to do much of anything.. and I longed for the oppertunity to be able to learn martial arts. Especially since I used to get bullied all of the time. It wasnt until I was 20yrs old, that I had the money, and was in the right place and time.. that I was able to take up the Martial Arts. I was also extremely lucky, as I lived near the largest Wing Chun school in the USA, at that time. Wing Chun was quite rare, especially back then. Anyways... I always used to watch these old Chinese Kung Fu films.. as well as did various research on the arts.. and one thing I had read/heard was that the Ancients uses to start their training as young as 3 yrs old. I thought that was crazy... but then I actually saw some modern footage of little 3yr olds doing forms, and quite well. As a result... I thought to myself... How the Hell am I supposed to "Catch Up" with someone that started so young?! The only way I could come up with... was to train 10x longer, 10x harder, and push myself 10x harder. And it turned out, that was the winning recipe. Good knowledge, is nothing without Hardcore efforts and FULL mastery. Its just that most people are not willing to put in that kind of hardcore effort, to achieve Masterclass level results. This is why most artists of Advanced Chinese Combat Arts... cant fight for beans. They never fully master any of it. That said, its also true of a lot of other arts, artists. They cant maintain proper form under combat stress... and they end up looking like bad/sloppy kickboxers. I always tell people... that an Unperfected / Non-Mastered technique.. is like trying to cut a tough piece of over-cooked steak... with a dull plastic butterknife. Things will end up failing, due to structural strength issues, coordination issues, poor awareness, and poorly developed Physical Attributes. Ive had a few private students in the past... but I could never get them to realize the importance of training to their highest levels of intensity + time invested. Id make it clear, that they NEEDED to train inside AND outside of classes... but none would do any work outside of class... and it was easily apparent, by the results that never advanced. One day I asked a student to do a simple 5 min Footwork drill... and in less than 2 min in... he stops, bends over slowly, and re-ties his shoes. He was doing everything he could to Stall / Rest... and was putting the bare minimum efforts into it. Eventually I got tired of it... and stopped teaching.. as it wasnt worth the extra side money. I wanted to be able to pass on what I had learned... so that the knowledge would be preserved well into the future. I didnt want to waste time, with someone whom only really wanted to do this.. mainly for "Intellectual" reasons. So, again.. the key is how bad you want it.. and how much you are willing to work + sacrifice to get it. Had that kid put in the same efforts as I did... he would have likely surpassed my own abilities... As I was giving him Special knowledge and Experience, that you wont find anywhere else (without Decades more worth of instruction.. IF you are Lucky to find a teacher that even knows the Real Deal ...and if they are even WILLING to teach the full monty to you).

Sir, was he using medical corticosteroids (they relieve pain, like nerve pain, but do not promote muscle mass or strength), or was he using anabolic steroids (the “illegal” steroids that build muscle)?
He was using corticosteroids to treat pain, but the people saying "Bruce Lee used steroids" don't know the difference between corticosteroids and anabolic steroids.
Bruce lee training all day was not all out but constant movement of techniques and heavy endurance training at different times. Training all day 10 hours get blown out of proportion. Taking ephdra herb & coke at times became a problem according to some.
When I was 21/22 I did Bruce Lee's training for 3 months (the summer). I followed the program of "Bruce Lee Jeet Kune Do" book, and it consisted of 6 hours of training, 2 hours morning, noon, and evening. I had weight training session, stamina and core training session, and martial arts training session. I remember I used to do 1650 punches on MWF and 1000 kicks on T TH S. I focused on speed and strength. I did not grow in muscle size, but my strength increased a lot and my punching speed was insane. My kicks got faster but nothing impressive. Of course, summer ended and all that free time was gone and I had to drop this spartan regimen of workout. I think it's a good workout to do for a season in a year (if one is preparing for a fight) but not at all healthy for long term.
Thank you, Arnold said he trained 2-3hours morning and night and in between he studied, he worked, this guy has no idea the dedication some people have towards their goals!!!
That's nice 🙂
@FERDİ BEKÇE if anyone tries to fight in a style they aren't used too they wont be at their best. Brucle lee combined a bunch of fighting styles and put them together to make his own.
what were the workouts you did to get the speed?
You have to traing for yers to archive near at his speed bat you h you hsve to traing very hsr almost 7 hour at day mayby after 6 or 10 ye years you cen be nearly his speed bruce lee training ate 13 stsry at 13 yers sow if sombady training at 20 and later is very hatd to be fast to be more faster
The level Bruce Lee achieved without having a upcoming competition fight or a trainer is mind-blowing. Talk about self motivation!

Read the article "like warn marble" and also, "the art of expressing the human body" by Bruce Lee. It outlines his training routines and diet. My entire training routine is based on those two sources.
I have the art of expressing the human body but not like warm marble so thanks for pointing that one out
YEP, so true
Yep
@@chrispearson89599
Love the video bro, actually AAALLLL your videos, been a fan for years
I appreciate that!
I’ve seen some of the beerdys videos, it’s not hard to see it’s nonsense. Bruce Lee said there’s a lot of hype when it comes to fighting martial arts and training you have to learn how to cut out the hype. That is exactly what you’ve done. you seem to have a very good understanding of what it was. Bruce was trying to teach. thank you.
Bruce's work out training is actually on how to become macho and attractive physically but it is heavily connected on his fighting arts conditioning ..Bruce Lee is a serious martial artist making all his tools with a deadly caliber ...
The work out that you described beginning at 16:23 in this Video, is basically what the U.S. Navy S.E.A.L.s were doing when I was at SBU-24 in the U.S. Navy. It will build Power. However the S.E.A.L.s that I knew emphasized muscular endurance over bulk. Basically, Muscular endurance and speed were more important than how much weight you could lift.
Speed requires strength training. Look at sprinters vs marathon runners.
@@benglasby8014 yeah but if you focus on bulking, it will make you slower and kill your endurance. Especially if you do isometric workouts.
Check “Supertrainning” from Vershonshansky. Aside isometrics, like pointed in the vid, there’s a concept in muscular power development related to the angle of how grow muscular tissue. That angle is influenced by load (weight) BUT speed (power) of the movement. Targetting different goals (bulking, power, speed…) require accurate control of speed for each repetition for the “proposed” load and that measurement is performed by lineal encoders (or nowadays accelerometers inside an smartwatch) so if you can’t perform the proposed exercices at its defined parameters… trainer send you home to avoid your muscles get another adaptation instead the one you are targetting. This has lots of implications to just explain them in this short(?) comment but this + isometrics > is the key for powerxpound trainning and one of the selling points for whole body vibration devices or inestability trainning (with bosu-like gear) and also isokinetic pulleys like yo-yo machines and versapulleys (eccentric workout improves that muscle angle growing KEEPing flexibility) that remeble to a certain degree that Dragon isometric machine showed in the video…
Hope this helps someone (I will copy it into general comment)
Peace.
Better to increase number of, speed and ease of reps than increase of weight moved for real strength.
Mr. Goldenbell Sir, Much respect to you. I found your page on accident several months ago. You are calm, knowledgeable, and assertive. Keep up the great work as the industry needs people like you. -Many Respects-Drew
I love how you broke it down and made it practicable, I've been following the Bioneer for some years now too as well as Bruce and this was an amazing one, thank you.
Kettlebell guru Pavel met with John Saxon (Roper in ETD) and Saxon said that Bruce showed him kettlebell exercises in Hong Kong during filming. You can see Saxon pressing a 32kg kettlebell in Pavel's 2nd edition of "Simple and Sinister" book.
As always, enjoyed this video.
Finally! New content! Been waiting!
I’m glad you called out Beerdy! Because I have commented on multiple videos that his facts, videos and photos are incorrect. I have trained in martial arts for 40 years and Bruce Lee was the reason I started. Goldenbell Training keep up the great work.
If you check the channel page, there's an entire series making fun of/correcting Beerdy's videos.
Thanks
He blocked me cause I disagreed with a video of his 😅
@@Guile1117 Beerdy deletes/ blocks every comment that disagrees with him. God forbid he would admit he's making his stuff up.😊🤦♀️

Thanks 👍 😊
Found your chan when I was looking for funny Seagall footage. Thanks for the video, I have seen some of Beardy's vids.
Bruce Lee has fascinated me since my childhood back in the 70s😊
Always enjoy your thoughtful presentation.
Good gouge, I always enjoy your stuff, keep it up, thank you
You are a very engaging individual, sir. I'm a martial artist of 14 years and a personal trainer and even though I really have no reason to still be watching, 19minutes in now, I'm still here!
I'm a marine corps veteran and a fan of Bruce lee since I first discovered him in the early 90's. I realized if I done a similar exercise routine I would have been in great shape most of my life and it would have been easier to maintain. At age 39(soon to be 40) and out of shape, if I was to start now I know i would have to endure alot of pain and have to adjust my diet as I'm now a type 1 diabetic. 🤷♂️
Thanks again for covering a great legend in human history.
Suck it up and GET AFTER IT! You got this :D

40 is very young. Just find what you like to do so you will more likely to do it. I'm 68 and putting together a list of what I want to do before I die. They are Nunchucks, Fandabi Dozi's (Bo) Staff training, Kohji Katoh's Tonfa, Tim Shieff's Rope Flow, Strength Side's Animal Flow, GMB Fitness's Tumbling, Weight training, Landmine, and TRX. Some of these were not possible even a few years ago because you didn't have YT videos to learn from. Good luck.

To your channel. The fact that this was so informative and so hilarious at times totally made my day, thank you.
Laughter is really the best meds
As usual from our navy training, we know that we have to do proper investigative research and stick to the facts. Ever since I was a kid, I have witnessed so many people, jumping on the Bruce Lee coattails to get attention and recognition. You are definitely one who keeps his name Full of respect and is much appreciated from all of us who loved him. Namaste
Great video man. You have the best Bruce Lee and martial arts channel on RUclips. I'm curious where in Asia do you live?. Keep up the great work brother. Thanks for sharing this.
If Chuck Norris train for 5 hours, and Chuck said, that Bruce Lee was the hardest training person he ever seen, than maybe Bruce train for more than 2 hours.
Chuck Norris said he would train 4/5 hours a day with bruce and when he would rest that Bruce would carry on for another couple hour
Amazing explanation....being a martial artist myself...everything stated in the vid is absolutely accurate...great content pal...lov your channel ❤🔥
Incredibly well thought out, modern look at how Bruce would train. As a CF instructor, on and off life long martial arts enthusiast and gym owner I LOVE THIS MAN. I’d love to give it a try, (it’s nearly what our gym programming is weekly) especially the isometrics which I’ve personally never done before. I love your channel, attitude and particularly that you regularly shit on beardy 😂😂
wtheck dude… i followed you when you had only a few hundred now you got 140K subscribers!!??? wow your content has gotten so much better of the years.
Great video, and trustworthy information.
Thanks again Prince.
because of my genetics I could never get big, I did train by eating everthing and excercising as much as possible. I did get ripped but I'm not very big. But Bruce Lee's physical condition was my goal....I'm 61 years old and started when I saw Bruce Lee when I first saw him in the 60's. Just started following your Facebook page
I’m the opposite. I gain muscle easily, especially in the arms and back, but I lived on salad and chicken for a year while running 2 miles a day with my martial arts and weight training. Never got ripped.
@@maddysdaddystevem563 You probably had a Healthy amount of fat on you..I seemed to look anorexic...lol
When I trained hardcore while living in Korea, in addition to feeling stronger, my mind was sharper than it has ever been. I eventually got complacent and fell out of my routine
this is the first video i have watched of yours, thank you! I was pleasantly surprised and the information you put out is spot on. Subscribed, please don’t stop making videos. I have to ask, have your neighbors ever caught you in the common areas of your apartment (because the video you shared)? mine did before on bad weather days when i was active duty and thought I was not all there because of some of the exercises i was doing haha.

I believe that Bruce Lee train all day because no way to achieve that level just with 2 hours of training
Follow the program I gave in the video for 5 years and see what happens. 😉
@@GoldenbellTraining tank you for your research I'm boxer and a black belt karaté and judo kickboxing Muay Thai and I fight in the street since I was child and I try defferent thinks but no one know how really Bruce Lee train because to achieve that level you have to train perfectly and to variate defferent mothode's of strength conditioning training and martial art training
As usual, Beardy's Videos leave a lot to be desired. You on the other hand do solid research and present information in a manner that can be clearly understood. As far as Internal Martial Arts training goes I don't know of any Chi Gong or Tai Qi work outs that last longer then 45 minutes sans physical conditioning. In fact most of the Instructors I know of advise only doing 15 to 30 Minutes of Tai Qi, Chi Gong, Hsing Yi or other Internal Martial Arts, 2 to 3 times a day and any more than that is unnecessary with the exception of sitting Meditation and even then Meditating for more than an hour is rare unless you are a Monk or Priest or are doing Chanting or external Qi Healing and even then doing any of those for more than 30 minutes at a time is for Advanced Practioners.
Tai Chi Kung means Harmonisation of Cultivated Energy being Cultivated Energy the Chi Kung part of that. Without Chi Kung (Cultivated “Energy”) isn’t possible any kind of Harmonisation. Can someone do larger Chi kung trainnings? Of course but if these are done right that person will “accumulate” enough ammount of Chi to feel unnecessary keep accumulating. I will not say “there’s a finite amount to accumulate” but as you pointed if you aren’t into specific Chi use and you reached your own “health” with less time… why continue?
OTOH that Cultivation requires other things aside Chi Kung “gymnastics” such a sexual energy trainning (or almost knowledge and coherence) that usual people not very commited to themselves can keep like monks and traninng more time will not solve that (meditation will be more effective) but even so… there are certain stages of Chi level and when you arrive to “certain” level it becomes a connection with the Universal source where you manage to work with that source and Harmonise (Tai) not only your own Chi but the Chi around you or in words of Sifu Lee “Then it got beaten by itself” because Chi as “energy” can generate (new) life, re-generate (a)live or preserve life balancing the Tao… “when my opponent expands I contract, when he contracts I expand and where there’s a gap…”
Do you remember that dialogue with the monk at (directors not cut version of) Enter the Dragon?
Tao is nature, Chi is the body of Universal Conciousness and Life in coherence with those is Joy of Infinity Love.
I&I
Peace 🙏🏻
Like his martial arts, Bruce Lee's cross training regime evolved to meet the needs of what he required, his ripped definition was the result of very precise and calculated working. It is described in the four books an overview of the resistance exercises which are creating strength in core stabilisers and focused on pulling power, grip strength and a hard, lean physique. One of his hollywood friends, i forget which one, said he was like steel all over so developed a density without bulk which is more easily achieved by hovering in the hypertrophic. He was also obsessed with having incredible forearm and tricep strength more than stupidly bulky undefined biceps inhibiting fast arm movement...
love your vids bro
Also bruce lee said he did not want to bulk up to much because it would slow down the reaction times
Well Olympic lifters are not exactly slow
@@josephperkins4857 Theres a differrence im on about punching not lifting
@@jamesfaircloth8588 actually there is no diffrence when you take into consideration how face the muscles twitch and movie..there is fundamentally no diffrence
@@josephperkins4857 There is a differrence why do you think boxers like anthony joshua lost some fights years ago he had bulked up to much so he did not have the stamina to keep going and was beaten by someone not even in good shape simply because he did not have the energy to keep going all because he had put on to much muscle he tired out becuse he had put on to much muscle which is why bruce lee did weight training but did not want to bulk up to much
@@jamesfaircloth8588 dude 1) just because a person is hitting the weights does NOT mean they automatically have to bulk up 2),plus Olympic weight lifting requires the development of SPEED,and 3) Bruce Lee also did include some Olympic lifts in his training,plus doing regular execises like squats ,curls etc etc with a high speed..so your bias is null and void dude
Consistency is the most important
Good video m8
Love martial arts. And Bruce Lee. Thanks your for sharing.
Great voice and amazing videos !
Keep this coming, I want to see and learn more on how he lived and trained. I never trained or anything but I’m not out of shape, I will start tho. I just want to live life like how he did, his water quote saved me today. Now I just want to live teach life differently to people that see it in a wrong way like how I did.
So I been training like Bruce Lee for about 6 years, now... I've been evolving my training regime constantly. I finally got everything calibrated just the way I wanted, so far. My first thing was to take, Isometric and cables (curcuit) with stretching - First part
Weight training with Forearms and core - Second part, always stretch before and after weight training
And power (heavy bag) and speed training with my added martial arts training: that includes the mechanics of each strike and defensive movements plus reflexes with flexibility (further stretching)
Yo I don't know anything about anything with martial arts but I really dig your charisma and style of relaying your thoughts cheers!
Class video 👍
When I was in my early 20s and doing amateur MMA I would train 2 to 3 times a day,2 hours each session 5 days a week. Each session focused on a different aspect, like stand up one session, grappling another session, and some strength and Conditioning others sessions.
I was in great shape. And that was 20 years ago,lol.
I try to train doing 2 sets of exercises from book of Bruce "The Art of Expessing the Human Body". I train 5 days a week and on Saturdays I watch and train from videos from my JDK instructor mixed with boxing exercises...
Excellent video 👍👍
I like your problems, you're absolutely right completely, right? You are right on the point, thank you very much.
Love your videos, keep them coming
I’m 44 years old and took 2 years off from bjj/kickboxing. I’m slowly starting back up to still active for my kids. Do you suggest for Phase 2 adding sprints in the 10 minute warmup and also adding more weights or sticking with moderate weights to the Weigh lifting part?
Respect to you for still fighting 💪🏾🙌🏾🙏🏾
I hope you achieve your goals

Great persentation and disspelling myths about Bree Lee, the man and the martial artist.
How dare you question the self-proclaimed world's greatest expert on Bruce Lee! As Eric Cartman always said, "Respect ma authoritah!"
Lol - another South Park connisuer - excellent ! 🤣
You no what you’re talking about bud great job
He trained big compound full body barbell excercises 3 times per week for about 2 sets 8-12 and later added some circuit training on machines.He also trained isometric,bodyweight exercises,running,skipping,bicycling and alot of martial arts.He trained for power,speed and better himself as a martial artist,not as a bodybuilder.That 1 year video guy is wrong.
Bruce actually did a lot of cardio, John little mentioned it in the kfg podcast that he did running, jump rope and stationary bike for his cardio
Bruce Lee did so much cardio to the point that he damaged his knee from excessive use.
@@GoldenbellTrainingReally? I didn't know that part
I watch this channel a couple times a week. And everything that's said makes sense. You definitely do your homework. And not just regurgitate the same bs. That everyone else passes around.
All you need is your body, resistant bands, Punching bog and yoga mat. You could even go with any weight. Explosive power training is great. I have this smaller yellow resistance band that looks like figure 8 and you put it behind your back and shadows boxing with this resistance and calisthenics and your punching with becomes so much quicker
I followed bruce lee's Training regiment for 5 years straight from ages 20 to 25. It was awesome, results were good but not satisfying. Now i follow teri toms advice, train smarter not harder and my results are a lot better now. 😊🙏🐉
Bruce did do bodybuilding training and injured his back from doing heavy good mornings. According to Linda, near his death, Bruce was on a mostly liquid diet, recently had his sweat glands removed, couldn't cool off and literally drink himself to death is whats theorized. Crazy
It sounds like you have it all figured out 🤔
I've heard some former Shaolin monk guys on a documentary talk about how they still train 8-10 hours a day.
Bruce not only did weight training. He did calisthenics isometrics. Interval training and plyometrics hi
Such a powerful video. I have a question. I’ve discovered Mike Mentzer’s HIT training Regimen. I’m very interested. But I’m also very interested in Bruce Kee’es method of training. Is there a way to combine these types of training regimen to become a supreme athlete/ fighter?
Thanks for the gems bro
Great video right on the head
Damn, you did track in college? That's pretty cool. I did in high school and then wasn't quite good enough for my division 1 school's cross-country program. The runs were actually one of the more intimidating parts of what I read of Bruce Lee's training. He went pretty hard most days of the week.
Bruce's Daughter has a podcast and she reads what a day for Bruce was really like. Look into her podcast it's really interesting and helps you realize he didn't train all day every day.
I can just read his notes from his planner for myself. She posts them regularly.
I seriously doubt you will get objective information from Shannon Lee or the Lee estate.
@@shadscott469 What is it a big secret?
@@shadscott469 well, they have to keep the mystique alive, or they wouldn't have an income, simple as that.
I have been alive since 1975 and have watched and researched Bruce since the 80's and I have never heard anybody say including him that he did steroids or like you said cocaine and I use to have his workout book and other books by him and I never saw where he did ten sets on weightlifting exercises it was usually 5 or less and he was a fitness and martial arts fanatic.I never remember seeing where he trained for 14 hours a day.
I was in the room w William Cheung when he showed me Bruce's letter describing his steroid use for muscle growth
We appreciate your honesty and breaking down these videos. Unlike beardy, thank you for helping people and not lying to them. 👍
I wanted to be like BL when I was young (10-15). I studied and trained in a few different arts. It was weird though, because I had a lot of books on BL and I suspected he did drugs because there was one picture of him after the release of one of his early films in china. His eyes were bloodshot and I suspected that he smoked weed. Turns out he was medicating himself from pain, and he used them to get ideas. I still love you BL. Your teachings will always inspire to to be a better human being.
What about the volume punching and kick training?
Thank you for making this video. Beerdy needs to be called out on his lies.
Thank you
Bruce Lee forever
Follow Brucel Lee exercise routine. Take side to side move for 600 time and push up first to 80-100 first push ups and extend second push up 30 to 50., and there are some more exercise you can do. I am doing this for more than 7yrs.
Very cool video incidentally there's like a 5-hour podcast about Bruce Lee they mentioned some interesting things they claim he ate and such and some insane training I don't know where they got it from or what's what but it is quite interesting
Awesome 😎
I'm looking forward to it.
0:15 that is lei tai. Sanda has different rules, clothing and uses simple mats. Lei tai allows you to fight with pants, shoes, and color T-shirts, As well as the platform for the lei tai is a couple feet off the ground.
That's nice 🙂

Also bruce lee liked doing isometric exercises unless im wrong ?
Very interesting video.
Behind-the-Neck Presses and Upright Rows can be bad for the shoulders.
Today more is known and better applied to physical conditioning in combat sports than in B.L.'s time, no need to copy him in detail! In addition, the training that he devised for himself is the best that could be applied according to his personal characteristics and objectives, let's not forget the training principle of individualization: methods, loads, phases, etc., must be adapted to each combatant. individually.
❤❤ Thank you! R.I.P Little dragon 🐉
And any time you workout with the intentions of changing the look and build of you're body you are bodybuilding so yes Bruce was a bodybuilder.
Thank you for this video on Bruce Lee training.Meanwhile,it is sad to trivialize the personal life performance of the one and only perfect martial artist like Bruce Lee.He consecrated all his life to bring a new dawn of light in martial arts.He was God- gifted, reason why in 1971 the slogan sayed"1971,Bruce Lee shakes the world"mostly with his 400 two finger push-ups!
Beerdy lost all credibility with him making up Bruce Lee stories from old pictures. Even called Guro Dan Inosanto ‘Karate Master Baxter’ in one of his videos. How can you train in JKD and not at least have heard of Guro Dan?? His ‘train like Bruce Lee’ video was hilarious for all the wrong reasons. And like you said-it strongly suggests that Beerdy doesn’t even train at all. Like you my sources are Bruce Lee’s training logs and books by his students and by John Little as well as the various articles in magazines I’d collected over the years. Your video is a good one on this subject. Subbed
Well said
Even before that with me -- when he idiotically tried to claim that a man helping him in one of the demonstrations was Joe Lewis (despite the man being several inches shorter & 50-70 lbs lighter).
I'm going to train with Bruce Lee 'ds weight training for one year along with my Kyokushin Karate
Oh wee, for all those who say Bruce wouldn't win in a real fight with top pro's of the today. Well most [ro's don't have the skill and agility Bruce had or his speed and power. Let alone them not train ing 10+hrs a day. That what bruce was doing is Shaolin training. Mom's of the Shaolin temple train 10-12 he every day.
I'm just reading Art of Expressing the Human Body. The question I've got is about time. Let's say I'm training martial arts 3x a week (and I work full time of course). So assuming it's 8 hrs a day 5x a week I got 2 trainings in the week and 1 in the weekend. On a weekday training my whole day is full (work, little rest, eat, go train, go to bed). One day in the week almost always I gotta run some errenads. So that leaves 2 week days after work with a little free time and 1 whole free day (Sunday), Saturday MA training.
When the hell can I/ should I do weight training /condition/ circuit training? Do you have any tips for time management?
He is exact right about German Volume Training. It will fry your CNS system and it will be all you have time for. Its amazing for simple Bodybuilding Gains, but not for Martial Artists.
Thanks for the info, I really appreciate it very much. I'm an old man and always thought that it was a real art. I exercise now for health only.
The reality of Bruce Lee's routines is that you could actually do more than him if you don't restrict your calories like you're trying to maintain a ripped physique or stay at the same size all the time. Up to a point, more calories and sleep = more recovery = more results.
Bruce didn't restrict his calories until he went on that liquid diet that appears to have contributed to his death, according to a recent research paper
But yes, someone would get better results with more rest & recovery.
There isn't much need for more training for a person who is not a full-time martial artist
@@GoldenbellTraining True, his walking around size was bigger than people think, but on the flip side the popular image of him always shredded to the gills can lead to people chasing calorie restriction alongside performance, which will end up giving them neither a Bruce Lee physique nor Bruce Lee Performance in the end.
Totally agree with the look being a result of being obsessed with the art and the technique. I don't lift weights at all, I just do jiujitsu and use the inversion boots.
Bruce Lee ate a lot of liver which is key❤
Most people do not understand exercise science... moving a heavyweight you're working The Agonist and the antagonist muscle... isometric training you're working The Agonist minus the antagonist muscles.
@@danstafford6536 That doesn't make it better.
Where in Asia are u?
2-4 hours for advanced training. I trained for 1 and 1/2 for fitness for most of 2011, 2 and 1/2 to 4 for most of 2013, and 2 and 1/2 to 4 for most of 2015. It can be risky because there were times when id get lightheaded especially while standing, but I believe the key is rest because after laying off for a few days to a week the lightheaded thing goes away.. he probably should have taken breaks to allow his body to catch up.
You know the stuff Beerdy said is all a lie, right?
i spent one summer, about 3 months just walking and eating spinach salads with tuna fish... and eating rice and beans also... i drank nothing but cider... i lost weight and felt pretty healthy... so i proved you can lose weight with minimal exercise (walking every day 2-3 km) but also i proved that you dont get fat from alcohol and it doesnt dehydrate you - else i would have died right?) it was weak cider.. im not saying u can drink whiskey and nothing else... low alcohol beer or cider still gives you water. i ate twice a day... enough to fill me up.. i was never hungry... and i drank one big bottle of cider with each meal..
Bruce Lee's Workout is in THE ART OF EXPRESSING THE HUMAN BODY.
anybody can buy the book
His workout isn't really in there, but it's a good place to start.
If you watched the first video in the series, you'd know that I used it as a resource 😉
I used to train anywhere from 4 to 8 hrs a day... But not all in one block. When I first started out, I was able to take the Day and Night classes, at my Wing Chun School. Each class was 2hrs long. The first hour, was a full hardcore "Core" workout routine, with some stretching mixed in there. 3 sets of +60 Crunches, 3 sets of Pushups, 3 min or so Leg Spins + Lifts (each set mentioned, typically had different types per set.. such as 3 different types of pushups). Then the remaining class was a combination of instruction, partner drills, and a few more special attribute creating "Exercises" (like Squats, speed drills, leg hold-outs, and more). After the class, I would bike back home.. and then bike back to the next class, several hours later. I was getting about 2hrs of Biking, along with 4hrs of Martial Arts + Workout. That was 4 days per week... but that was just the START of things:
In addition to training IN school... I would get home, and start Practicing what I had learned OUTSIDE of School. I repeated the entire 1hr workout at home, every single day that I was not doing it twice at school... and I was doing it every day that I wasnt at school. I would start throwing a series of punches, kicks, and or hand-techs... about every 15 minutes, all throughout the day and night... no matter where I was, Including when I was working. As such... I would, for example... go to the back room at work, and throw anywhere from 30 seconds to 2 minutes worth of techs... then go back out to the floor. If I was waiting in a long line at the bank, or just waiting between customers.. Id be standing on one leg (sometimes even extending the raised leg to hip height). If I was walking from my car through the malls parking lot.. Id be throwing techs. Same when walking in the malls halls. If I walked past a tree that had leaves on it.. Id target a leaf, and kick it. If there was a Parking Lot Post.. Id Heel kick it. If there was a high hanging sign, Id also try to jump kick it.
I also had built a home "Dojo", so that when I got back home from work.. and after classes... I would then be able to work at home, to the maximum potentials. I had a custom made Sandbag section... with TWO 3-Section sandbag units, mounted vertically.. giving a total of 6 targets in a straight line. The top 3, for barehand punches, the low three, for barefoot kicks. The top mount, was moved about 1 ft forwards, so that you could reach both your hands, and legs... to impact at the same time (as your legs are longer than your arms, so the top bags needed to be closer). The top mount was Pinned in place... but you could remove the pin... and "Punch" the assembly... causing it to slide backwards as you hit it. In this way, you could use the sandbags for both Impact conditioning, as well as Penetration development.
I also had a standard kick bag, a 6ft tall Muay Thai bag (real leather)... which were mounted to a long metal gas pipe, that ran the entire span of the Attic. This allowed you to be able to do a sidekick... and have the bag slide along the pipe.. to see how far you could make it travel. I had cut the metal chain off of these bags... and replaced them with 2" Strapping material. This made them more quiet... and it provided more Friction, to make moving the bags harder. When I wanted to train statically.. I had two Screw Hooks mounted into the Attic Rafters, and I would attack a bungee cords to them, and around the bags strapping, to prevent it from Sliding when hit. The smaller and lighter canvas bag.. was used for deep penetration kicking. And the Muay Thai bag, I used for general kicking (Front kicks, Crescents, Jump and Spinning kicks, hooks, and more).
I also had built a custom "Kick" Dummy. I had a steel seller cut me off three 7ft tall sections, of metal pipe. Each pipe was 4 inches in diameter, with a thickness of nearly 1cm (Schd 40). I mounted the pipes between two wooden circles (MDF circles, and 6 PVC pipe flanges). The were placed in a Triangle shape... so that your single leg could reach all of the pipes... similar to the half-height wooden stumps seen in Leung Tings old "Wing Tsung" video. The difference with my Dummy, is that I could train mine Indoors... and that the Pipes didnt move at all.. when kicked (you were Hard Leather bottomed dress shoes, when kicking them. No rubber / foam.. to cushion or rebound your impact). Also, mine were a full 7ft tall... which meant that the upper part of the pipes could be used to Grind your arms on... or could even be Struck with handstrikes. I also had a center mounting hook on the top circle... in which I could hang a canvas bag, filled with about 15 lbs worth of steel bbs. This then allowed me to train kicks and punches, and combinations, on the same Dummy. Yet you could remove the bag easily... for footwork that involved passing between the pipes.
I also built a custom Iron-Leg shin conditioning bag... using an old pair of Jeans. I cut both pant legs off, and doubled them, for maximum strength. Tied the legs at the bottom. Then I took 3 pairs of sand-filled wrist-weights... and Duct tapped each pair tightly together... and stuffed them all into the pantlegs. Next, I Tied the top closed, and ran a rope loop through the knot.. so that it could be hung from the Loop. I then hung a metal chain from my ceiling mounted pipe... and I could use a spring hook to lock the bag to any height I chose... via any of the chains links. Finally.. I used duct tape, and tightly wrapped the entire Jean Leg, so that it was as Tightly packed as possible (Several layers worth of tape). Even the lightest of Shin Taps with this, felt like you were impacting a solid Rock.
I also did traditional Iron Body training... Hitting my own body, with my own fists / hands. Typical sessions were 1hr long, and spanning every part of my body.. including chopping my own throat.
Additionally, I was teaching some private students (not in the very beginning).. and I started trying to spar, about 1yr into my training. I would eventually spar every weekend, against fighters from various different arts. Often choosing to spar against dudes that were up to 2x my own mass and strength.
Also, note, that my sessions with the Kick dummy, or hitting the sandbags... tended to be a MINIMUM of 1hr sessions. Same with the Iron body conditioning. Typically.. on most drills.. I would strive for 15 minute nonstop sets, with about 2min or less between sets, depending on the drill type. I would often go right from workout, to kicking the bag for 1hr, to punching the sandbags for 1hr... and some other stuff in between... and thats not even counting the in-school work, before any of that took place... Nor the hundreds of handtechs and kicks I had thrown all throughout the day, earlier.
I maintained that level of Pace and Intensity, for a Solid 3 yrs time, before easing up. After my 3rd year, I had reached Masterclass levels of output... and it was very rare that the local artists could even get a single hit on me. This isnt to brag.. but merely to show the differences in results, from a Casual artist... to someone whom trains 24x7, as a Daily way of Life. As someone whom actually was able to fully master everything to the Fullest extend of what ones body is capable of.
Jesus teach me your ways lol
@@thetruth1862 You cant teach Dedication / Motivation. Either you are Obsessive, or you are not. It did help, that back then, I didnt even own a computer... so I had little in the way of distraction.
I grew up in poverty.. and wasnt able to do much of anything.. and I longed for the oppertunity to be able to learn martial arts. Especially since I used to get bullied all of the time.
It wasnt until I was 20yrs old, that I had the money, and was in the right place and time.. that I was able to take up the Martial Arts.
I was also extremely lucky, as I lived near the largest Wing Chun school in the USA, at that time. Wing Chun was quite rare, especially back then.
Anyways... I always used to watch these old Chinese Kung Fu films.. as well as did various research on the arts.. and one thing I had read/heard was that the Ancients uses to start their training as young as 3 yrs old. I thought that was crazy... but then I actually saw some modern footage of little 3yr olds doing forms, and quite well.
As a result... I thought to myself... How the Hell am I supposed to "Catch Up" with someone that started so young?! The only way I could come up with... was to train 10x longer, 10x harder, and push myself 10x harder.
And it turned out, that was the winning recipe. Good knowledge, is nothing without Hardcore efforts and FULL mastery.
Its just that most people are not willing to put in that kind of hardcore effort, to achieve Masterclass level results. This is why most artists of Advanced Chinese Combat Arts... cant fight for beans. They never fully master any of it. That said, its also true of a lot of other arts, artists. They cant maintain proper form under combat stress... and they end up looking like bad/sloppy kickboxers.
I always tell people... that an Unperfected / Non-Mastered technique.. is like trying to cut a tough piece of over-cooked steak... with a dull plastic butterknife. Things will end up failing, due to structural strength issues, coordination issues, poor awareness, and poorly developed Physical Attributes.
Ive had a few private students in the past... but I could never get them to realize the importance of training to their highest levels of intensity + time invested. Id make it clear, that they NEEDED to train inside AND outside of classes... but none would do any work outside of class... and it was easily apparent, by the results that never advanced. One day I asked a student to do a simple 5 min Footwork drill... and in less than 2 min in... he stops, bends over slowly, and re-ties his shoes. He was doing everything he could to Stall / Rest... and was putting the bare minimum efforts into it. Eventually I got tired of it... and stopped teaching.. as it wasnt worth the extra side money. I wanted to be able to pass on what I had learned... so that the knowledge would be preserved well into the future. I didnt want to waste time, with someone whom only really wanted to do this.. mainly for "Intellectual" reasons.
So, again.. the key is how bad you want it.. and how much you are willing to work + sacrifice to get it.
Had that kid put in the same efforts as I did... he would have likely surpassed my own abilities... As I was giving him Special knowledge and Experience, that you wont find anywhere else (without Decades more worth of instruction.. IF you are Lucky to find a teacher that even knows the Real Deal ...and if they are even WILLING to teach the full monty to you).
Ain’t no way I’m reading that
Chat GPT called and wants it's post back
@@thetruth1862 Chat GPT was programmed by the Elite. It has a well known BIAS already (as people have found out by testing it).
The elite do not want the Lemming class, to have high level Combat technology... so no... the ChatBot, isnt going to write anything like that.
The fact is... you cant handle the Truth, despite your User ID tag.
People like you, are weak in WIllpower, let alone, Brain Power.
Sir, was he using medical corticosteroids (they relieve pain, like nerve pain, but do not promote muscle mass or strength), or was he using anabolic steroids (the “illegal” steroids that build muscle)?
He was using corticosteroids to treat pain, but the people saying "Bruce Lee used steroids" don't know the difference between corticosteroids and anabolic steroids.
the body of Bruce looks like he was training much more for strength then for endurance
Bruce lee training all day was not all out but constant movement of techniques and heavy endurance training at different times. Training all day 10 hours get blown out of proportion. Taking ephdra herb & coke at times became a problem according to some.
