Bruce Lee was a thin ectomorph who nevertheless built an enviable physique with lats so wide he could glide. In fact, his nickname in China was “Flying Squirrel”…

Bruce Lee spreading his lats

Okay, that’s not true—it was “Little Dragon”—hey, but they have wings too. And apparently just the turbulence created by Lee flying through the air was enough to knock around people on the ground…

Bruce Lee in a flying kick

Lee wasn’t a competitive bodybuilder, but his etched physique was stunning despite his thin stature. Here’s a still from “Enter the Dragon” as he battles villain henchman Bolo Yeung, a massive, hulking mesomorph…

Bruce Lee and Bolo Yeung in Enter the Dragon

Lee was 5’8” and weighed in at only 128 pounds, but he worked out with a vengeance, hitting the weights hard…

Like Bruce, you too can be damn impressive, even if you don’t have the genetics for the extreme muscle mass of a competitive bodybuilder…

Rely on some high-rep sets, which tend to work best for ectomorphs, and then rip up like Bruce…

One of the healthiest and quickest ways to get there without losing muscle is intermittent fasting.

For details on quick, twig-to-big workouts and IF eating for cuts, see the ebooks below.

Till next time, train hard—and smart—for BIG results.
