How Strong Was Bruce Lee?

According to BruceLee.com,  Bruce Lee was big on experimenting with different fitness and workout techniques to mold his body into the kind of machine he preferred. He often made his own training equipment, and took a strict "function over form" approach to his body. To keep track on his methodology, he wrote down every single crunch he did, punch he threw, and mile he ran. 

Lee's training program varied and he enjoyed experimenting, but it was generally some combination of weight lifting, cardio, stretching, jogging, and martial arts training. Reportedly, he particularly enjoyed meditation and jogging, which he described as an hour to his own thoughts. Motley Health also points out that Lee was very strict about form, and allowed no cheating when training with weights. "Above all, never cheat on any exercise," he said. "Use the amount of weight that you can handle without undue strain."
