Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless - like water. Now you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup, you put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle, you put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.” - Bruce Lee
Bruce Lee was a model of cost, a picture of the final bad-ass. It is not just martial arts skills were incredible, but had both physical and bodybuilders an impressive even as individuals Arnold Schwazeneger admired. What is even more impressive is that Bruce trained his body, not even one in a gym with very light weight use or machines.
Here are some of the physical feats Lee plays with one hand, push-ups with only your thumb and index.
Able to maintain the V-sit position elevated for 30 minutes or more.
It could throw grains of rice in the air, then catch them in the air with chopsticks.
Could break wooden boards 6 inches (15 cm) thick.
50 repetitions of one armed pull-ups.
Although you can not at the level of Bruce Lee taken at night, you can start with the form without using a lot of imagination (and expensive) equipment. You can comfortably at home in an area as big as a bathroom.
Part of the reason I started to not workout gym because I like the training method of martial arts (Bruce Lee started). But I also got tired to pay a monthly levy to the gym. At the time I was looking for things that could reduce my monthly budget to save a small extra money.
I always thought that my participation in the gym completely wrong, but I do not want to sacrifice the health or my fitness. I see found another. For months I had a membership at the gym, but I’m stronger and faster than ever in my life.
We have too many weights or machines to buy, whatever. Expensive equipment you need (a simple door pull-up bar) will not cost more than $ 35.00.
Bruce Lee was a strong supporter of overall fitness or overall. Workouts include the strength, speed, endurance and flexibility training.
Here are some ways to start the louder, faster, and the other is not even weaker in the gym:
1. Gymnastics. There are so many different weight exercises there, but will start from the beginning.
2. For the lower body: lunges and squats are a good start. You can easily do such exercises at home. For the upper body: chin-ups, push-ups and push the top back. For your heart: grinds, chops and reverse crunches get. What great power and body weight exercises that strengthen operational. These natural movements in real-life situations such as sports, the use of self-defense, gardening or doing chores. Also, if you take body weight exercises that require you to help your body use more muscles and balance, such as engines would on. More bodyweight exercises, you see these great resources:
3 isometric exercises. These are the basic bodyweight exercises, but with your body in a static situation. Examples of these are the frog sitting, V-sit, the position of the horse, hanging from a pull-up bar and the Board. Calisthenics exercises improve muscle strength over a series of protests, although isometric exercises are perfect for a joint and stabilizing force.
4. The agility and flexibility. The best exercise I’ve found for mobility and flexibility are yoga. The best thing about yoga no equipment is needed and you can have tons of free online resources to find yoga routines. Balance. Balance is the ability to stay attached to your balance if your home is balanced. There are many ways you can balance in practice every day (we won’t come walk on the rope). If you put the shoes or clothes, do it on foot. Walk to cur band try to go in a straight line does not stumble. Or if you’re really ambitious, there is always a pogo stick and unicycle.
Dynamic exercise. Dynamic exercise is when you are on the scene after the routine routine. Things change in the river and constantly. Move to more natural movements, but a constant repetition of standard models. I started doing recently Jeet Kune Do in the park every weekend. It’s a great way to get a good job and to learn self-defense. Not forgetting, martial arts tend to be inspired to pursue and achieve a higher fitness level. If you are not art into martial, you can still sport such as tennis, handball, pick basketball, or take dance lessons.
There are many other opportunities for exercise, which does not include a gym that I have mentioned here. Walking, jogging, skiing, gardening, the list is long. Just use your imagination. Have fun and change it. It’s the great thing about exercising without gym, there are so many to choose from.
On a side note, I will not say that to me is the discipline is much more work from home. It would be easy for me just to the gym. When I arrived there, not much I can do to improve. But at home), there are always distractions, other things everything, except the preparation (such as laying on the couch or surfing the Internet to do. For me, the martial arts inspired me in the gym. Although you can not have one problem, I think it is fair to be in front on this issue. Another reason for me to work and save your home - Save money - the variety of workouts. There are so many options many more exercises weight of the engines. You can still do something to further challenge. If push-ups Abre, you can try your fingers or with a straight neck with a medicine ball. If pull-ups too easy to train for pull-up ONE ARM (extremely difficult). The implementation of Bruce Lee as a gym is not just this kind of training done, and eat the same food. What has Bruce great was that natural curiosity and energy to explore and learn more and more about fitness and personal development. (Staff library contained over 2000 pounds!)
“If you always put limits on everything you do, physical or anything else, it will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them.” - Bruce Lee
