We've all heard the name of Bruce Lee, considered

to be the greatest Martial Artist of our time, father of Martial Arts Action
Movies, Jeet Kune Do, and even the godfather of MMA (Mixed martial Arts eg,
UFC). His iconic skill and charisma shot him to stardom in a few short years
only for him to unfortunately pass on before the height of his fame could be
realised. But even today, his following is and has never been stronger, for not
only Martial Artists but anyone wanting some motivation. Sure, Bruce is always
going to be known for his lightning fast punches, and skill in fighting, but how
many are aware of the physical strength this man possesed? Many who knew him
have been quoted as saying he was pound for pound, one of the strongest men
alive.

Bruce was always as avid weightlifter, studying bodybuilding but adapting to
enhance his martial arts to not only preserve but develop his speed and power in
his strikes, opting for muscular strength, not size. Along the way Bruce became
a man of many physical feats, some unmatched.

to 36 kg) for 3 sets. Lee could hold a 75 lb barbell at arms length from a
standing position, horizontally, in front of his chest, for 20 seconds. it has
been said that he performed pushups with up to 125lb of weight on his back.
These are impressive feats for any http://www.vougers.com/valentino-c-127/
man to accomplish, but what made a shocking difference? Bruce weighed only
130lb (59kg)!

This shocking strength coupled with light weight made it possbile for him to
develop great strength in one arm chin ups, performing up to 50 reps
consequetively. One arm pushups off his finger and thumb. And gave him enough
speed to perform some truly amazing punches and kicks, too fast for 24fps film
cameras to effectively capture! One of Bruce's favourite tricks was to snatch a
dime from a person's palm and replace it with a penny, before they could close
their hand. Such great speed and accuracy is demonstrated also by his ability to
throw grains of rice into the air and catch them with chop sticks, in
midflight.

Bruce's physical feats translated effectively into martial arts. Dan
Insoanto, long time friend, training partner, and current head of Jeet Kune Do
(as appointed by Bruce before his death) talks of knock out jabs and out of this
world speed. Bruce used to demonstrate a punch thrown from a distance where the
volunteer would try to block the punch before it landed, unsuccessfully every
time, Bruce was too fast.

Bruce Lee's physical feats and Martial Arts ability are among some of the
best of history,whilst his philosophy made him a role model for generations of
followers. For those Martial Artists, Athletes or anyone looking for some
inspiration, keep reading past this hub, as this article simply does not do the
man justice!
