You probably know that I’m a big Bruce Lee fan. Without question, Bruce Lee was the most famous martial artist of our time and had the physique that matched. It’s hard to believe Bruce was 5’8” and weighed only 128 pounds. He used a rigorous three days per week weight training program to sculpt his body. However, he sustained a serious back injury after performing the good morning exercise which left him in a bed for over a year (where he wrote his book - Tao of Jeet Kune Do). At the time doctors said he would never walk again.
This taught Bruce an important lesson - to avoid dangerous moves that aren’t necessary. Due to Bruce’s will and perseverance he not only proved the Doctors wrong, but started his movie career.
