It’s no secret that Bruce Lee training and workouts used a combination of weight lifting and isometrics to produce his incredible physique, power and strength. And it’s no secret that he had to stop using free weights, because of a back injury due to performing an exercise called Good Mornings. Bruce Lee was no dope, he did his research, but he was influenced by Bob Hoffman. Hoffman, barcodes who owned the York Barbell Company and was the coach of the United States Olympic weightlifting team was a big proponent of isometric training. What swung Bruce Lee over was Hoffman’s position that strength was the most important quality in any sport or physical endeavor.
