This is an interesting discussion but how can you possibly think doing 50 push ups and walking for an hour at night will give you results in just days, for bigger muscles :rofl:

You're right, the faster way to bulk up is to hit the gym, eat protein, maybe a little HGH thrown in there . . . where to stop? jk. I was giving advice to a specific individual, FreshDacre, and in his specific case I thought 50 pushups every morning and a 1 hour walk every night would make him feel much better after a few days. Pushups won't bulk you up as fast as weights but they still will do it. They are also free to do. The walk is for the heart, physically and psychologically.

Push ups are beneficial, you work out a lot of muscles with them. And like Writer said, free!

Where do I sign up?! Oh yeah! On the floor right here!

Pull-ups are also great. They don't build "bulk", but they build lean strength. And bragging rights. If you can do like 15, you can win a pull-up contest with most totally built, ripped football player types. It's a power to weight ratio thing, just like building a ricer to beat muscle cars

But, it will totally tone you, and get your metabolism moving, and build strength in a lot of areas.

They can be hard to start, if you can't get up at first, instead of pushing it I suggest a week of starting at the top, holding as long as you can, and lowering as slowly as you can. If you're already way buffer than most stoner kids, disreguard this advice, and start pulling.

Thing is, do you wanna look strong, or actually be strong. The two are not always the same. Do you want to look like a guy who spends 20 hours a week at the gym, or do you want the muscles for something other than looking good in the mirror?

Physical fitness

Lee was renowned for his physical fitness and vigorous, dedicated fitness regimen to become as strong as he possibly could. After his match with Wong Jack Man in 1965, Lee changed his approach toward martial arts training. Lee felt that many martial artists of his time did not spend enough time on physical conditioning. Lee included all elements of total fitness—muscular strength, muscular endurance, cardiovascular endurance, and flexibility. He tried traditional bodybuilding techniques to build bulky muscles or mass. However, Lee was careful to admonish that mental and spiritual preparation was fundamental to the success of physical training in martial arts skills. In Tao of Jeet Kune Do, he wrote
Training is one of the most neglected phases of athletics. Too much time is given to the development of skill and too little to the development of the individual for participation. ... JKD, ultimately is not a matter of petty techniques but of highly developed spirituality and physique.[74]

The weight training program that Lee used during a stay in Hong Kong in 1965 placed heavy emphasis on his arms. At that time he could perform single biceps curls at a weight of 70 to 80 lb (about 32 to 36 kg) 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.[75] The repetitions he performed were 6 to 12 reps (at the time). While this method of training targeted his fast and slow twitch muscles, it later resulted in weight gain or muscle mass, placing Lee a little over 160 lb (about 72 kg). Lee was documented as having well over 2,500 books in his own personal library, and eventually concluded that "A stronger muscle, is a bigger muscle", a conclusion he later disputed.[76] Bruce forever experimented with his training routines to maximise his physical abilities and push the human body to its limits. He employed many different routines and exercises including skipping rope, which served his training and bodybuilding purposes effectively.[77]
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. Mito Uyehara recalled that "Bruce always felt that if your stomach was not developed, then you had no business doing any hard sparring". According to Linda Lee Cadwell, even when not training, Lee would frequently perform sit ups and other abdominal exercises in domestic living throughout the day, such as during watching TV. She said of Lee, "Bruce was a fanatic about ab training. He was always doing sit-ups, crunches, Roman chair movements, leg raises and V-ups".[78]
Lee trained from 7 am to 9 am, including stomach, flexibility, and running, and from 11 am to 12 pm 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 ride the equivalent of 10 miles (about 16 kilometres) in 45 minutes on a stationary bike.[79][80]
Lee would sometimes exercise with the jump rope and put in 800 jumps after cycling. Lee would also do exercises to toughen the skin on his fists, including thrusting his hands into buckets of harsh rocks and gravel. He would do over 500 repetitions of this on a given day.[81] An article of the S. China Post writes "When a doctor warned him not to inflict too much violence on his body, Bruce dismissed his words. 'the human brain can subjugate anything, even real pain' —Bruce Lee".[82]
Physical feats

Lee's phenomenal fitness allowed him to perform numerous exceptional physical feats:[83][84]

Lee could land a punch in around five hundredths of a second (0.05 second) from 3 feet away, and from 5 feet away it was around eight hundredths of a second (0.08 second).[85][86][87]

Lee could take in one arm a 75 lb barbell from a standing position with the barbell held flush against his chest and slowly stick his arms out locking them, holding the barbell there for several seconds.[88]

In a speed demonstration, Lee could snatch a dime off a person's open palm before they could close it, and leave a penny behind.[89]

Lee performed one-hand push-ups using only the thumb and index finger.[84][90]

Lee performed 50 reps of one-arm chin-ups.[91]

Lee could cause a 300-lb (136.08 kg) bag to fly towards and thump the ceiling with a sidekick.[84]

Lee held an elevated v-sit position for 30 minutes or longer.[83]

I don't see what this has to do with acid.

r0llinstoned · Jan 6, 2013

It has EVERYTHING to do with acid young joseph

GangGang · Jan 6, 2013

DUH writer.. Both. Be strong and look strong. Personally, looking for tone. And an easier time carrying trays at work xD thats a workout enough.

Anyways yeah.. Do push ups on acid? I dunno.. Push ups are just as relevant as LSD. Except pushups give you results instead of goofy stories/memories. Epiphanies are cool though. I'm gonna do push ups on acid now.

Saw this scrawny looking heavy metal dude that looked like he couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag break like 25 2x4s stacked on top of each other.

His power he said, came from his chi. He explained how exercising and muscle building actually slowed down his chi practice.

Its not what you got on the outside, but what comes from within.

This is true, the guy who I buy mushrooms from is about 5'5, and his little monkey ass does all of the parkour shit, he knows every pressure point. He sits down and reads fighting books written by like.. Bruce Lee, and one time he was saying he could bring me to my knees with no force at all. So I let him, he copped at my colar bone and down I went.
