    i dont, just on the stuff ive read it always to seems positives and never says that he sufferd becsaue of to much training. only his injury with his back but then i guess that was just poor form or something. i find it confusing that bodybuilders say only to train abs once or twice a week when bruce trained them every single day and he still had the best abs ive ever seen :S why dont they take a tip of him lol. i know that bruce lees death is still a mistery but does anyone maybe believe he burned out to quick as he trained alot?

    on google, http://www.mikementzer.com/blee.html
    i think it is his actualy weight routine as ive seen it on tv and a few other places to. but then you have to remember he trained martial arts loads, and ran loads, so i suppose his physique was just not down to weight training alone. but i read that he trained with weights in punching techniques aswell. and he did isometric exercises etc.

    Off topic, but he died from a brain aneurysm after he took a prescription that contained something he was deathly allergic to

    thats bruces beginner routine, he changed his routine often. Working with light/heavy days and other workouts and excercise changes. Towards the end he started to incorporate more bodyweight excercises after reading about the great gama.

    LTFOL how the Mentzer sight tries to twist it to look like HIT (3 days per week)....

    Yet, when you see the actual workout it was 6 days per week with lots of other exercise thrown in.

    great gama was a wrestler in India who went unbeaten for hundreds of matches. In india the wrestlers were very keen on doing bodyweight squats and pushups by the hundreds (30 mins for each excercise) along with lifting weights. The weight part is something that matt furey ignored. Since bruce is a martial artist and wanting to be the best I assume he took on the high rep squats and pushups aswell.
