Why can't it be god-given talent and really disciplined training that made him as good as he was. Many athletes have god-given talent but can't go all the way because they lack the discipline in the training.
He's so WEAK in the mind, he had to ERASE my remarks. That's evidence that he's A LIAR & afraid of me because I know the REAL TRUTH. I love EXPOSING FRAUDS. 😂
Bruce Lee has been the only human who could break a 45KG sandbag only by side kicking.
He produced 1600 pounds of force only with the help of Num-chakus.
He could punch about nine times in just one second and his One-Inch Punch could easily force a 75 KG opponent 5-6 meters away.
Bruce Lee and Muhammad Ali had the same pouching power of about 350 pounds even though Lee weighed only 130 pounds which is half of Ali’s weight.
Lee could easily kick six times in just one second and his signature move of “Skip Sidekick” had the capacity to push a 200 pounds’ man 20 meters away.
According to the present data, Lee could, in one go, do 1500 pushups with both hands, 400 with one hand, 200 with two fingers and 100 with just the thumb.
He also holds the world record for kicking a 135 kg sandbag to a 5-meter high ceiling.
THESE ARE WORLD RECIRDS UNBROKEN UNTO THIS DAY.
This PRINCE of ENVY guy spreads MISINFORMATION and DOWNPLAYS Bruce's accomplishments. 😂
@@ProfRobertStewart There is no proof of any of that. I did a report on Bruce Lee in high school for record holders. And I couldn't find anything on him. All of these extreme feats never happened. He was fast, he was larger than life, he experimented with mixing martial arts, he was fighting racism, he was very philosophical and ahead of his time. But he wasn't a demi god
Isometrics is part of it, but the real secret to his speed was something known as non-intention. I learned about this from a 1st gen. student of Bruce's named Patrick Strong. He had a vhs tape I bought 25 years ago called Bruce Lee Patrick Strong Lord of Speed.
This vhs series changed my entire direction of my martial arts training. If it wasn't for this tape set, I would have never learned about Bruce's secret to his power, which was his nim lik. I would have also never heard about Hawkins Cheung.
I loved Paul Vunak back in the day, but he didn't have the secrets to Bruce's inner game like what I learned from Patrick.
Bruce had incredible explosive power and speed, I can see how those isometric training exercises complimented his overall approach to his art.
Yes, ALL who do ISOMETRIC should BE AS FAST as BRUCE. However, he has SPEED RECORDS UNBROKEN to this day. FACT CHECK for this PSEUDO FACT CHECKER. 🤣😁
@@ProfRobertStewart He doesn't have any speed records. And Bruce Lee did isometric trainings later on and then stopped. Isometric training doesn't help athletes at all. It only helps people who need physical therapy
isomax is safe
@@anti1trainingKeyboard warrior 😅
@@Joe-lo7ml How? It's true. He doesn't have any speed records. And isometric training has nothing to do with Bruce Lee's speed or strength

Very interesting and gratifying! As a graphic artist it always bothers me that people will assume it's talent instead of years of dedication. They won't believe they could learn to draw but they can. I like the idea of an exercise that doesn't involve the possibility of losing your balance while lifting weights.
Uhhh no, not everyone can learn to draw ace. Not everyone can be a doctor either. You must have missed a lot of school while growing up dude. Either that, or you live in a microcosm.
@@superstrangevideo Talking down to people is very addictive. That's why you don't notice the ones who taught you that are talking down to you.
@@superstrangevideomost people don’t even try. You have to learn to draw with the “right brain” instead of the “left brain” through practice and/or scientific training techniques. Also… the things we’re talking about are just not the same as a doctor astronaut or president.
Yes isometrics is the key there you're right about that it gives you the coordination and balance
Bruce Lee stopped isometric training after doing it for a bit. Isometric training isn't actually useful for athletes. For physical therapy on the other hand... @@franklynpertuz7669
Losing him at such a young age is the biggest tragedy in the history of martial arts. RIP legend!
This is very interesting but I do have to remind people about Dan Inosento's words when he said _"Speed is not your friend if you don't know what you're doing"_ because learning how to apply techniques perfectly really comes first and the right moment of doing something also matters.
Balance, Discipline, and focus. Incredible amounts of training that he dedicated his life to. A true martial arts icon. OSS Master Lee.
Bruce Lee was obsessed with training to stay in shape and to kick open the doors of Hollywood. He was extremely disciplined and motivated by Hollywood's refusal to believe that an Asian could be the lead actor in a movie. So, he sculpted his body to gain its optimum performance in martial arts. Great video, thanks!
I'm 58 years old now my birthday was yesterday and I drink water and eat foods that are good for the body and get plenty of exercise and I don't look my age at all,no smoking cigarettes and no alcohol and no drugs
As a child, Bruce was so active and full of nervous energy his family nicknamed "Never Sits Still". They realized the only way to get him to sit quietly somewhere was to give him comic books to read. They sometimes wondered if he was sick or sleeping because he be so immersed in the comics. He was already very fast before he became famous. It's one of the reasons that students of Ed Parker defected over to Bruce and his art in the early 60's. Some individuals don't seem to outgrow their nervous energy into adulthood. But isometrics did become an important catalyst in his training regimen.
I was the same way at one point. Now I'm never not sitting still
When I think of isometrics, I remember the Charles Atlas ads in the back of comic books and magazines. It was the 99-pound weakling not letting bullies kick sand in their faces advertisement. I also remember the Bullworker and I still have the one I bought in the 70s. I remember Bob Hoffman and York Barbell and his "Strength and Health" magazine. Also, the legendary Joe Weider had a course you could buy for $99 I think that taught all kinds of self-defense methods including Judo, Karate, and Savate. When I told my mother I wanted to buy the course, she enrolled me in Judo at the local YMCA which led me to study multiple martial arts styles for the next 15 years. Oh, yeah, Bruce was a huge influence.
At the end of the day, Bruce Lee's discipline was key to his art and that cannot be taught.
End of what day?
More like dedication and a love for what he did. The discipline naturally followed his interest, meaning and reason, for practicing martial arts. What he really enjoyed doing others would find distracting, unimportant, and a waste of time.
I once worked with a guy at a grocery store ( Safeway,remember them ?? )he told us his teacher told him he couldn't teach him any more,because he had learned everything from his instructer. Never heard a story like this before,so I asked how he got so good.He told me he practiced MA every day for 4/5 hrs each day,but,eventually he got burned out from all this practicing. He gained lots of weight because of the lack of training and skipping his diet. Went to his house one day ( it was a party for workers from our store ) and this guy had medals and trophies-EVERYWHERE !!! LOL. He had more in his basement and attic.
It definitely can be taught and is taught
@@anti1training taught at the beginning of the day or towards evening at the end of the day?? HaHa!
Its a combination of a gift a talent and his dedication to training. He was the total package there will never be another one of him.
You have got to be kidding me. I guarantee you there are at least 1000 better than him alive in China at any given time. It's just they have not revealed themselves, and will not, unless they absolutely have to. "Those who know, do not speak". Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching. Also, we were taught another saying "The wise man keeps his secrets to himself, and doesn't make a show of his talents. The mock variety is loud, aggressive, flys off the handle, and makes a fool of himself". Peace.

@@williamhiles7404 That's not how that actually works
In one of the books "Bruce Lee's Fighting Method", Bruce talked about using isometrics to "flow his chi." As Kareem said, Bruce was an iconoclast ... merging the Eastern and Western belief systems. It would make sense that isometrics were the Western version of flowing Chi. I am not sure if Bruce incorporated a specific breathing system along with the isometrics, like an internal practtioner working on his chi. But the isometrics practice does make a lot of sense in this view. I recalled reading where he talked about flowing his chi by pressing his hands against a desk, against a door way, and especially when he was driving ... he would wrap his arms around the steering wheel like a sticky hands/isometric exercise and apply continuous pressure.
Your video has inspired me to look into Bruce Lee's life, training methods and philosophies to apply to my own life in efforts to live a healthier life; become stronger and function better. I will be exploring isometrics and calisthenics training. I'm in awe of Bruce Lee's commitment to excellence and focused discipline.
I knew Bruce did isometric training, but I didn't have such detailed info. Your presentation was really great and informative. I do a little isometric training whenever possible, but sadly not on a regular basis. Your presentation definitely motivated me on its importance. Since you are a practitioner of internal martial arts, it would really be great if you could demonstrate a few training methods to follow. I am positive that all your viewers would appreciate it. God Bless You and Your Family....!
I really like this style of video. You described the methods, Lee's philosophies behind them and how we can use his philosophies in our own lives. Really well done. Keep up the good work!
Isometrics are definitely worth incorporating into your training regimen. Lee's speed could have been a result of a combination of variables including his fast twitch muscle fiber ratio.
Accurate and precise. I enjoyed your commentary. It's true about talent and training. As a fiction writer I have been told by a friend of mine who would often read passages from my books and short stories, that it was meant for me to write. And I would always say that it was years of perfecting the craft that made me as good as I am.
One can be talented at something, but that talent must be rigorously developed.
Hey Prince, I'm a huge fan. I still train every day the best of my ability and I was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis about a year and a half ago. It is been a challenge to keep going and moving. I'm legally handicapped now but I'm still training. I had to do chemotherapy live in the hospital for 6 weeks. Be bedridden to a point and I'm still training and still in shape. I'm not as toned as I like to be but I'm still in shape and I'm still going and I'm going to find ways around it in. Bruce Lee was my number one inspiration. I've been at Bruce Lee fan since the late '80s when I was a little kid and I'm 40 coming up on 41 now and still out there. I'd love to talk with you sometime. And get your insights on some things and build a friendship one day if you allow me. Thank you so much for being awesome. Really appreciate you. Keep doing what you do. Oh and by the way, I did get to meet Jim Kelly and I've had a conversation with him. That was really cool so if you ever want to know I'll let you know what he said
great, consistent work always produces insights! thank you for the great work you have always done on your videos!!
Bruce trained hard and worked hard. But a lotta people don’t give him credit for it!
What a fantastic presentation. Thank you so much for sharing this.
Hard work
wow perhaps the best video I have ever seen on bruce's training. Awesome job, man! Thanks so much for sharing! More power to you!
This is the most consistent channel I’ve seen on UA-cam. You are knowledgeable and I respect your research. Keep up with the excellent work. Looking forward to your next video. Thank you 🙏
I really like your point on "...the key to extraordinary success is not just innate talent, but more importantly, the perseverance and dedication to continuously improve and refines one's skills".
Just wanted to thank you for all the excellent work you do to provide us with knowledge of events and training of Bruce lee.A+++
Your new studio setup, lighting and color corrections are sick bro. You've come a long way. Proud of you. (FYI - I nuked my Discord account awhile ago. I only use Telegram now, or Facebook once/week.)
Once again, very informative and interesting concepts, thanks for sharing this video & keep up the good work...!!!
I sure wish I was older than 9 when I saw Bruce at that Long Beach Karate tournement. I was already a gray sash in my Art.

It's one thing to look "fast' on film VS be actually fast AND EFFECtIVE in a ring.....e.g. Bill Wallace, undefeated world middleweight kickboxing champ from the 80's....a true masrtial artist/world champion....PROVEN against elite competition.
Absolutely inspiring! Thank you for covering this!🙏❤️
I am James F JR... I am an old Fan of Bruce Lee. He had to have been one of the most dedicated Men ever. His Regimen was one to be admired and envied. He influenced us all in some way. Thank God for letting us share his Experiences by Creating Him. Thank you for dispelling rumors. Some Spread by the likes of Beerdy and Steven Seagal. And his nay Sayers. Michael Jai White . I try to follow your posts. God Bless You.
I just loved this!! This was a beautiful work in history!
He worked hard.
Many people just don’t get that. The man trained very hard!!! 👍🏽👍🏽
Thanks for sharing this insightful piece. Master Lee has always been very intriguing.
Him as well as Iko Uwais, Yayan Ruhian, Cecep Arif Rahman, Tony Jaa
Learning about Bruce Lee's speed training methods is 100% beneficial, but I am more interested and what type of books this man had in his library because I believe if we knew what he studied specifically, potential students of martial arts would become that much more proficient at their style. Food for thought. I only ask because I have never seen a video specifically on a man's bookshelf and who else Bruce lee studied
Bruce also did electric muscle stimulation this stimulation helped his twitch muscle response and speed and strength and striking power
well done 👍
Bruce Lee's mother said in an interview-I don't know if Bruce is a genius,but,he works very hard.
No that's not true. That's not how that works
Very fluid narration. Never dull.
The bioneer also did a great vid on isometrics and Bruce Lee
He was fast. And had power behind that speed. Which IMHO is rare.
Excellent script and production. Thanks.
Sub unlocked!
Interesting video. While Lee most likely increased his speed through training, but he also had an abundance of natural fast twitch muscles and naturally good reflexes. I believe it was a combination of genetics enhanced with specific training that led to his blinding speed, not one or the other.
Which I've done since my teens and can testify to its effectiveness.... The smart way to train.....To gain speed, tendon, fascia strength overhaul....
Excellent video! Thanks!
Amazing video, thanks for making it
Excellent bio and absolutely fair and balanced approach
Great episode Bro!! So as I'm sitting here at work at my desk watching this boring report out I have my palms applying forward pressure underneath my desk! Great way to pass the minutes away and maybe strengthen forearm tendins?? Peace Bro!
Big ups to the way you present your videos, well thought out and fact based not hyped: could/would you post as close to a workout program for us blokes to follow or a link wherein we could speed train
Isometric basically keeps all the muscles in a coiled and ready to strike state. Like a snake coiled up ready to strike which most strikes from a snake are so fast it is hard to see at normal speed.
Prince...wonderful vídeo. You are the most trustfull source of information about Bruce Lee methods. Amazing stuffs.
SUPERB Vid; THANK YOU 🙏🏾 BROTHER
fantastic video, great insights, appreciate you 🙏
Fantastic! Thank you so much!
Videos like these are why i love this channel, i learn more about the history of martial arts and i find new ways to improve and become stronger!
Isometrics only helps if you don't workout, are elderly and or need physical therapy. Bruce Lee was fast before he did isometric training and he didn't do it for that long
Good stuff as always champ. 👍🏿🤜🏿👌🏿
i can honestly say moving slow with mind and muscle awareness will make you quicker. When i started practicing Tai Chi i felt the mind muscle connection and it will make you quicker.
Great video man, great video
Very very informative and interesting, thank you for doing this video.
great video, thanks for your effort
could you please clarify what are the 2 exercises' that Bruce focused on
I use isometrics. It is really good stuff.
I use Iron Moped Chains and Kung Fu Iron Rings.
1:33 “I practice martial arts!" Always loved that part in the movie but great video man I’ve always wondered how he was so fast
Another excellent presentation!
Thanks for the amazing video ❤
BRAVO !!! BRAVO !!! forever "EVOLVING " Goldenbell Training : - )
Another great video!
Two many people think it's alllll isometrics but it's not here's the exercise with weights reasons he was so fast 1)Isometrics ( fast twitch muscles fibers) ,2) high speed repetitions with bodybuilding style exercises (fast twitch muscle fibers),and 3) a few Olympic lifts (fast twitch muscle fibers) included in his bodybuilding workouts. all three of these I feel lead to his Hyper explosive speed...read "Bruce Lee;the Art of expressing the Human body"
I completely forgot about Isometric training. I usually do the plank but never considered it for my arms or back muscles. I’ll start incorporating it into my conditioning so I can increase my punching speed and power
Thx man♡...great presentation!
Well done. Very clear voice and great presentation
You have incredible equipment in working out!!
Thank you for your videos.. You inspired me to purchase the dragon door isomax. A hefty price, but worth it. Just got mine today and realized its potential. Thank you again! Keep up the great work!
'dragon door isomax'' got it mine too ! ; - )
I need to apply this philosophy to my drumming. Good video.
Good video. Isometric and the effects is nothing new to me, since i have his training scedule. But it's a good reminder to see if i can start doing it again after a long recovery. 😊🙏🐉
some can tolerate extremly big pain some can lift very very heavy Bruce was gifted built for this
Learning the cha cha,cha. And sword fencing. 1,2,3.😮
Where did you get the isymatrix training equipment?
JC Santana regularly trains his MMA fighters in Isos. Likewise Paul Vunak talked extensively about the importance of Isos for strength without bulk, or what he called a "sleeper" physique. Great video, man. I'm glad you delved into the training methods Lee used.
Thanks, Caleb! Always cool to see comments from people I know IRL
Great video man. Can you tell us where you got the iso equipment from?
What made Bruce Lee so quick-hitting his opponent and moving so quickly out of the way was that he was skilled in Fencing.
I think you're work is outstanding !!!and if I could ever work out with you I would ❤ love you're stuff.
Thank you so very much for this great video. We shall all always admire Burse Lee !!! 🤗🤗🤗
Aptly named channel…thank you for your well grounded wisdom into the martial arts and life in general. Still water runs deep.”
Another great video. Thanks for the accurate information. Happy 2024!
Love your vids, I agree as per a former Gym instructor
As a follower of Lee from the early 60s one of the ways he would train his twitch fibers was to hold a toy in front of his dog and just before the dog would go for the toy, he would utter a word silently to him self.
He was gifted a natural, like some people can play guitar and some can't.
He was gifted. But without isometrics he still wouldn't have been anywhere as fast or powerful...
BL is a perfect example where talent meets dedicated practice along with fearlessness.
Very well done
After watching this, I did some reading on overcoming isometrics. It seems to be a very dynamic method for strength building.
I think people prefer conventional lifting because it bulks them up. It's mostly about the "pump" for those folks.
I'm much more interested in simply being as strong as possible regardless of muscle size.
Dope video bro , I have another question did he cut weight or did he yoke up ; some of his workouts look very extreme if he was cutting . I have based maybe 50% or 75% of my workout on him cause he a hard gainer { ectomorphic } like me , knowing this would help me take it easy on myself { even if his metabolism was slower or faster than mine } I use to have problems with over training { chasing the adrenaline high } . Thanks
Thank you Sir
Dedication, focus and discipline.
Sifu, Do you also do videos on Golden Bell/Iron Shirt methods? Just curious. I appreciate your videos 🙏☯️
That Superman costume looks good on Bruce 😂
Would have been great if he was the next Superman, because in his philosophy and wisdom, he lived life like one certainly.
Great man.
Lee was genetically gifted with speed and explosive power. Plus he trained very hard. Also, he used weapon first techniques that he learned from fencing. Even all these years later, even now most fighters do not understand weapon first techniques. I was lucky to benefit from Lee working with Joe Lewis when Lewis worked for Tracy's kenpo, and I was an instructor for Tracy's for a short period and Lewis gave seminars.
Isometrics are about developing Functional and Structural strength... (Such as developing "super tendon" strength. BTW - Lee also held out a 90 lb barbell, with his arms locked fully out, away from his body... and held it out for like 60 seconds). Isometrics do NOT develop speed and acceleration. Special Speed / Acceleration drills, are used to increase limb speed. In Wing Chun, one such drill... is a double chop (fax sao) drill: Starting with both arms crossed on top of each other, in front of your chest... spring both arms outwards to either side of you.. as if you were chopping two people at the same time. Quickly retract both arms, switching them so that the top arm, is now the bottom arm... in front of your chest. Continue to chop and retract, as FAST as humanly possible, NON STOP, for a full 60 Seconds. Sounds easy? Try it! At about the 30 second mark... your arms will start to severely fatigue... and your speed will greatly reduce. By the 45 second mark... your will feel like your arms are on fire... and you strain with all of your might... to keep them level.. in the air. By that point... your speed it about HALF of what you started out at. In the last 15 seconds... your arm speed is dreadfully slow. Maybe a 50th of what you started out at... as you struggle to move at all... and struggle to keep your arms at shoulder levels, at all times.
We would perform this Chopping drill, at least every other day... for at least 3 consecutive months time. By the end of that 3rd month... my arms speed was DOUBLE that of what I started out at. Not only that... but if memory serves right... I was able to do the Entire 60 seconds, at full speed, without any slowdown.
Speed and Acceleration results, require Speed and Acceleration based training methods. Isometrics isnt a speed and acceleration attribute builder.
Isometrics IS good for a lot of things, however. Its excellent for special super-strength.. without adding heavy BULK. And the thing is... the more Bulky you are... the slower all of your movements will be. This is mere physics at play. A larger and heavier object, takes longer to accelerate, and longer to STOP. A Heavy body also means, more expended Energy, in moving it. This equates to much quicker levels of Fatigue.
That said, you are correct... in that Lee's speed isnt anything special. Many Chinese fighters, have been able to move just as fast, and or faster, than Lee. Almost anyone can develop the same kind of speeds... by developing more Quick Twitch muscle fibers.. by doing special speed drills. That said... not everyone will be able to move as quickly. If your body is very thick, bulky, and heavy... there will be limits to your speed and acceleration potentials. Of course, speed alone... can be Trumped by superior technique. There is always a way to nullify certain advantages.
You said ''Isometrics do NOT develop speed and acceleration.'' But isometrics trains the fast twitch muscles...
Cudos to you for going over this aspect of Sijo Bruce's training. I began utilizing this myself when I was younger. It did increase my strength and speed. I very much appreciate you reminding me so that I might reintroduce it my training as I shifted my focus towards internal training because of an injury and the fact that I've gotten older. Being JKD is still my core philosophy and practice except for more internal focus. Keep up the great work that you are doing. Much respect and appreciation to you. Maybe one day, we'll hook up, In Shaa Allah. I'm in Dallas Texas right now looking to go to another chapter in my Martial arts journey as I'm about to turn 60. Alhamdulilah.
