    The reason Bruce Lee was obsessed with forearms was because the bigger your forearm is the harder your punch will be since the weight in your arm is closer to your fist.

    No doubt Bruce is somewhere out there in the universe continuing to inspire and teach, and show the real beauty in Martial Arts. I think it means alot to him to see people still being helped by what he left us.

    The intro I so love it...always! I first read about Lee's obsession with forearm training and his tremendous forearm development when I got a copy of The Art of expressing the human body. He was the originator of many things. The first Chinese to make Chinese men look sexy and also had the balls to take up weight lifting and not still not be bulky but attained a definely ripped musculature. I could list more....

    @Chuckaluck78 6 років тому +2

    I’ve been training my forearms (I do knuckle pushups on asphalt too and know how to throw a punch) since I first read Bruce’s books. It is one of the reasons I have such knockout power. I’ve hit guys that outweighed by 30-50-100 lbs and lots in my own weight class too. I usually knock out guys that are only 30 or so pounds heavier. If they are bigger than that and I don’t knock them out, I always knock them down and often break their faces in the process. In these cases the look of shock, awe and amazement on their faces is so very satisfying.

    This was really comprehensive video on the work on forearms. Can you make a video on how to have powerful walk and body posture that radiates energy of strength and richness. Thank you

    • @ColdBaltBlue
      @ColdBaltBlue 6 років тому +1

      It’s pretty easy to explain in words. First of all, have good posture. Push your shoulders back and straighten your spine. Keep your head up and your eyes forward. Not only will it feel better, but it is the first step.
      Train your pecs, lats, deltoids, and traps to maintain good posture more easily. Aside from good posture, your gait needs to be fixed. Walk with one foot in front of the other rather than one foot out and around the other, keep your arms to your sides and don’t let your body flop around while you walk (zombie gait), and decrease the space between your steps so that your feet separate with no more than a foot between them.
      Most importantly, if you walk the walk, you have to talk the talk. You can’t walk confidently if you don’t act confidently. Sometimes the voices in my head at the gym tell me I’m weak and useless, and then it comes true when I believe it. My muscles fail earlier, I start crying, and I cannot focus or breathe properly. In order to combat it, I pause and refresh.
      My answer to every process is this:
      “The question is, ‘Can you do one more?’, and the answer should always be ‘yes’ until you can say nothing but ‘no’.”

    I think he should shown wrist roller exercise. When I was a kid I made my own wrist roller using wooden stick attached to bag by rope. Then I would fill the bag with weight ar roll it up and down with both hands extended in front of me. Great exercise. Burned the hell out of my wrists!!🔥🔥🔥

    Great video Sifu's on building your forearms. I def. agree Bruce Lee was an amazing body builder. People forget there are all types of body building out there it doesn't mean you have to be the Hulk or like Arnold either. Bruce was someone that showed people how to do bodybuilding for Martial Arts and for Health. He has some amazing forearms too.
    Sifu's i loved the HexHead dumbbell workouts. I was wondering do you ever use the Hand Gripper tool (Spring in the middle with a round longer tube on each side that fits in your hand or the Gripmaster Hand Strengthener (Series of three horizontal pieces with two sets of springs that your squeeze) to build up your forearms? It's something i've used since i was a kid and you can develop some great forearm strength from it. Awesome video, keep up the great work.

    Dan, please ask your instructor this thing. Using dumbbel(s) or hand grip exercise tools, which one is much effective in terms of strengthening hand grip? I guess the later works much better in enhancing overall finger joints and grip strength but I want to know his opinion on this matter.

    Hi. From an anatomical point of view. The power come from the recruitment of group of muscles. The literature says the more muscles we recruit the more power you have.....from a person that does martial arts ( more than 20 years) n from somebody who studied physiology, biomechanics, muscle physiology .....

    Or you can do Calisthenics.. Bruce Lee did it like a loads (e.g.: Dragon Flag).
    It's kinda hard (hellish) but very very rewarding.
    Edited: For forearms, Calisthenics have lots of compound workouts such as front lever, back lever, handstand that's definitely hit your forearms like hell.

    This position, this position, bla bla bla... These positions have names related to tri-fecta muscle groups and beyond. Used by legendary bodybuilders such as Arnold, Franco, Haney, and Zane; the three basic tri-fecta variations are known as reverse grip, hammer grip, and curl grip.
    -Reverse grip is for girth, or thickness of targeted muscle area.
    - Hammer grip is used for increasing length of the targeted muscle volume.
    - Curl increases the peak of the targeted muscle.
    Then you have incline, flat, and decline angles that are implemented for upper, middle, and lower targeted muscle areas.
    Be specific and quit being half ass with your flawed fitness logic with undisciplined practices.
    Never forget. Abds and calves are done EVERYDAY! Stay motivated!
