Re: Getting fit with SwordsMaster
sooooo. Mr. Swordsmaster...what do you think of the workout Bruce Lee Used to use? What is a good routine to get REALLY CUT while shedding fat and not having too much Bulky Muscle?
My dream is to be all Skin, Bones, and ultra defined leanness! what i mean is, Pure Speed and explosiveness with not much muscle weight or body fat.
Basically this is because i'm an aspiring martial artist, and because it seemed to work really well for Sijo Bruce!

Do you hate Drug Cartels? Do You believe that the Drug War is basically a failure? Do you think that if we Legalized the Cannabis market, that use rates would drop, we could put age limits on cannabis, tax it, and other wise regulate it? Join The ORG Marijuana Policy Project!
In American politics, similar to British politics, we have a choice between being shot in our left testicle or the right testicle. Both parties advocate pissing on the little guys, only in different ways and to a different little guy.

That being said, asian men have a different body type to saxon whites, or blacks, or mediterraneans, and different things work for different people.
So. You can reread my posts on this thread - they are based on personal experience and universal principles of anatomy - and then take away from them what you will. You can try everything and find what works for you - I did.
If you want to be a partial artist, it's a tough path, and there are many things you will need to deprive yourself of. But with perseverance and commitment it is, of course possible.
I'm guessing you're in your teens, so my advice to you is work on your flexibility as this is the single most annoying and painful thing to train, so the sooner you get used to it, the better. Speed and power come from muscle mass, and depending on your body type it will be bulkier or not. And skin and bones is no martial artist. Look at Bruce Lee or Chuck Norris in their good days.
Instead of a conclusion I'll give you another Bruce Lee quote: "I fear not the man who has practised 1000 kicks once. I fear the man who has practised one kick, 1000 times."

Re: Getting fit with SwordsMaster
i was exaggerating with the skin/bones part; the point was that bruce was pretty damn skinny and this was probably why he was so fast...apparently his power came from leverage and body mechanics and not sheer strength.

That show is sooooo fake it is pathetic. How can people take it seriously? ... Does anyone take it seriously?

Some good workout tips for those who can't afford a gym (some language).
Re: Getting fit with SwordsMaster
Swords, if you're still here, how much protein do you need to intake a day when you're practicing sports?
Also, look at my workout:
My week
Monday - football/soccer
Tuesday - gym + shooting (with a pistol/rifle)
Thursday - football/soccer
Friday - gym + shooting
Sunday - gym
Gym for one hour, one hour and a half on Sunday, and after I take a protein shake (27g per serving) with 300ml of milk, one protein bar (12g per bar) and before bed 125g of cottage cheese (13g per portion).
After football, I usually drink 200ml of milk, one protein bar and cottage cheese, I skip the protein shake only for workouts. At almost each breakfast, I eat hard-boiled eggs.
Opinions?
