    here u go buddy the answer to your question:



    Remember though, Bruce didn't have an actual workout regime for his forearms and abs. He just did them as often as he could, whle watching tv etc...

    Otherwise this workout makes a lot of sense, and seems to be accurate when you compare his body to the workout.

      He also did isometrics, punching with weights, various pushups, and a multitude of other exercises. In his final stages he was using a Marcy circuit trainer among other things. Some people believe he was using anabolics and diuretics, he was definately getting regular cortisone shots for his injured back, though. His body fat percentage was incredibly low and no matter how much you try to follow his weight training program you will never look as ripped unless your body fat percentage is as low. So start living on those calf blood shakes and training obsessively. Oh, and don't forget to run, cycle, skip rope, and throw a couple thousand punches and kicks everyday.

          Lol

          when I was an 11 -12 year old karate student(87,88) I'd try to follow his program as outlined in bruce less fighting method:basic training, I like his little poems though, and I'd try his ideas out in karate class which would annoy me instructor

            Emm, I'm new here but I am currently an olympic weightlifter(not olympic as in the olympics, it is a type of weightlifting using the classic lifts-clean and jerk and the snatch) and I also train using the power lifts(squat, benchpress, and deadlift). Thus, perhaps I could shed some light on this issue. Bruce(and he is my hero, keep in mind) actually had poor genetics for strength/speed but rather for great endurance. He used a very "bodybuilding-like" routine(they didn't have half the technology we do today remember), using medium weights and 8-12 reps. This is NOT anywhere near optimum to keep a small size and build high amounts of strength/power(power is actually ke=1/2m*v^2) . This would build decent endurance, some strength and a lot of size(cellular volumization). To simplify things for you all(if you want to read more, go to bodybuilding.com's forum and read up, mostly about bbuilding though...), using HEAVY weights with LOW reps(1-3) will build the most strength/speed and the least size(central nervous system adaptations to a large weight at a high speed(not actual speed, just your best effort to move the weight quick)) will not put on much actual muscle volume but a lot of strength and speed. I will be around so ask questions if you need.
            Also, to improve power output a LOT(I am seeing great improvements right now and I just started using them) plyometric exercises are awesome. To start, try jumping by going all the way down and then immediately springing back up and jumping as high as possible. I probably suck at explaining it but use google. There are many different exercises that can be done. I am just using different kinds of jumps and bounds, later I will be able to use depth jumps...
