Bruce Lee's Jeet Kune Do

One of my most favorite Jackie Chan songs from Rush Hour III, this is where he is singing "WAR" with Chris Tucker.

Obviously people associate Bruce Lee as being a master of martial arts who appeared in many films and had quite an amazing life. But one thing people may not be aware of is that Bruce Lee had a very strict diet which he stuck to, to keep him performing at the peak of his fitness. The Bruce Lee Diet consists of various factors which we will examine below.

Obviously before even thinking about copying the Bruce Lee Diet, you should consult a suitably qualified medical professional to make sure you are fit and healthy enough to start a new diet or weight loss program.

He worked on a basis that he didn't consume any calories or carbohydrates that had no effect on improving his fitness. So he didn't eat many products that contained flour, such as biscuits etc. He enjoyed eating his native western food, so Chinese meals were eaten plentifully. He liked these especially because of the goodness from all the vegetables that they contain.

Another major part of the Bruce Lee Diet was that he avoided products that contained dairy, such as milk and cheese. He would use a powdered milk. Anything Bruce did is what is recommended on most of the popular diets in todays society and that is to eat small and often. Avoid having large meals and have 4-5 small meals each day. This helps to keep a stable metabolism and encourage weight loss.

The Bruce Lee Diet also consisted of regular high protein drinks and also taking supplements. Obviously these have improved a lot since those days but he reguarly took vitamin tablets and made sure he was eating a lot of protein.

Obviously the Bruce Lee Diet was limited to what was available at the time but his diet still makes sense. That's why he was able to remain almost fat free but with a lot of energy which he used in his martial arts.

Jackie Chan is planning to make a film about the recent devastating Chinese earthquake, which left almost 60,000 dead and more than five million homeless.

The 7.9-magnitude quake stunned the world and now Chan wants to do everything he can to help the shellshocked survivors - and that involves making a film about their plight.

The 'Rush Hour' star, who is an icon in China, is planning a meeting with the country's leading studio bosses and film financiers to discuss his movie plans.

He says: "There are so many touching stories (and) through this movie, we will be able to show the whole world what happened. This will also be another way to raise money."



Chan also plans to raise money through benefits for the victims and their families.

He tells America's People magazine: "I can spend six years doing a movie, but I can plan an event in 72 hours. An event we're doing on June 1 in Hong Kong will include more than 100 artists from Asia."

Chan has already visited hospitals, schools and the ruins of streets of houses in the areas worst hit by the earthquake, and he has already donated more than $1m (€627,475).

Stage musicals about the late martial arts star Bruce Lee and former South African President Nelson Mandela are to be made for Broadway.

Bruce Lee: Journey to the West, set for 2010 or 2011, will tell the story of the action hero's rise to fame.

Meanwhile, a separate musical about South Africa's struggle for freedom from apartheid is planned for May 2010.

It will be based in part on a forthcoming memoir by Mandela's daughter Zindzi.

It will mix historical events with tales from Zindzi's memoir about growing up in the apartheid era with her father in jail.

The struggle against apartheid was also the subject of 1988 Broadway musical Sarafina!, about the 1976 Soweto riots. That was made into a film starring Whoopi Goldberg in 1992.

The Bruce Lee musical will include martial arts, Chinese opera, modern dance and pop music as his character struggles to master his skills and forge a link to unite East and West.

A lead actor has yet to be chosen. Lee died in Hong Kong in 1973 at the age of 32, having suffered from a fatal swelling of the brain.

He was loved by fans for martial arts movies like Enter the Dragon and Fists of Fury.

HONG KONG — News reports say Bruce Lee's former home in Hong Kong is being sold to raise money for earthquake relief efforts in China.

The Souch China Morning Post reports philanthropist Yu Pang-lin plans to sell five residential properties in the Kowloon Tong district, including Lee's former home, with the proceeds going to quake relief.

Reports say Lee lived in the two-story house in the 1960s and 1970s, but it has since been turned into a love motel.

The report says the plot has an estimated worth of US$13 million.

Lee, who died in Hong Kong in 1973 at age 32 from swelling of the brain, was born in San Francisco but grew up in Hong Kong where he also made his name as an actor.

The action star was known for films in which he portrayed characters that defended the Chinese and the working class from oppressors.

Yu was not immediately available for comment.

and he made a very touching song for the victims:
