⇒ ip man

sifu Yip Man was Bruce Lee's master--taught the Bruce Wing Chun, pushing hands, what have you...
Makes sense they decided to make an exciting movie about his life, which I have no doubt will contain a Harry Potter scene with baby Bruce (you know these filmmaker types, they likes themselves theatrical liberties!). Punch-errific teaser:

japan's latest crime-combating tech:camo-wear. I'm not joking, they design clothes/accessories to resemble regular street items such as vending machines, sewer covers, etc. Read the full article here

i quit (officially stopped work) Thurs, Oct 18th, 2007.
I've been working since Mar. 0Xth, 2007. I know it's a short time, but I learned so much about work and myself. In addition to uni, I felt like I've lived 2 lives this years (felt twice as long)--also, during winter, I was pretty much sick for all 3 months!

Bruce Lee's training regimen at 24 (unconfirmed):
The weight training program that Lee used during a stay in Hong Kong in 1965 at only 24 years old placed heavy emphasis on his arms.
-Bicep curls at a weight of 70 to 80 lbs for three sets of eight repetitions, along with other forms of exercises, such as squats, push-ups, reverse curls, concentration curls, French presses, and both wrist curls and reverse wrist curls--6 to 12 reps (at the time) This method of training targeted his fast and slow twitch muscles

Lee believed that the abdominal muscles were one of the most important muscle groups for a martial artist, since virtually every movement requires some degree of abdominal work. Perhaps more importantly, the "abs" are like a shell, protecting the ribs and vital organs.

He trained from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m., including stomach, flexibility, and running, and from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. he would weight train and cycle. A typical exercise for Lee would be to run a distance of two to six miles in 15 to 45 minutes, in which he would vary speed in 3-5 minute intervals. Lee would then ride his stationary bicycle for 30-45 minutes at full speed immediately after running. Next, Lee would do some skipping rope for 800 jumps non-stop.
