Bruce Lee and Strength Training

[blankslate]

I used to have 5% bodyfat in my prime. I've never been able to lift very heavy weight.

I may start bulking up in the future. Won't I lost speed and flexibility though?

[Ronin]

Nope.
As long as you DON'T neglect your speed and flexibilty training.

[blankslate]

Isn't bodyweight just as good as weights and leaves you more flexible?

[Ronin]

Nope,
You need to progressively increase the weight you do and weight training is best for that, your muscles get stronger when they are forced to work harder.

[Djimbe]

Yeah , thats a Myth Blankslate .

ARGH I just read the page and it essentially condenses the book I mentioned into a couple sections. John Little, I want my $40 back!
