Some of Mr. Lee's techniques may be outdated now, but the idea of learning as much as you can so you aren't limited is not.

I think Mr. Lee would be the first to realize that and also be the first to adapt.
Hopefully, without setting off one of those who Lee would beat today debates, which of Mr. Lee's techniques would you say might be outdated now, I'm mean, given the devastating power and phenomenal speed his techniques were known for even by today's standards.
