Bruce Lee is arguably the most famous martial artist ever.
Even after his death, he is still revered in martial arts circles. Many people consider him the original Mixed Martial Artist.
His power and speed were legendary. For a man small in stature, he packed quite a punch.
Many people wonder what his secrets were that allowed him to be so powerful, so strong…so fast.
The martial art that started Bruce Lee on his journey was Wing Chun Gung Fu, a style that has origins in – and was heavily influenced by - the Shaolin Arts.
A clue as to where Bruce Lee may have learned the secrets of hitting with so much force and speed can be found in this passage taken directly from the Shaolin Secrets Volume I: Shaolin Feats of Martial Arts:
“Saddle Gong is a hard gong, outer strong with the strength of Yang and strong. The training is similar to Strong and Gentle Law but the results are different. At the completion of the training, the fist will be able to pierce through a rock like an iron wedge. It will inflict serious injuries to the human body and cause death immediately even if it does not pierce through it. The signature of mastering this Gong Fu is the flatness of the face of the joints between palm and fingers when making the fist. They don't show the normal uneven shape of the joints. Because of the power of this Gong Fu, it will destroy the object and injure people with one attack.”
This is just a glimpse of the kind of information that is contained in the Shaolin Secrets Ancient Training Manuscripts.
Bruce Lee went on to incorporate many different styles and teachings into his training, but he got his start in the Chinese and Shaolin Arts.
If it was good enough to get Bruce Lee started, it must be good.
