except he had a degree in philosophy and wrote books.

>>8327680
Is there anything interesting from him?

>>8329047
he's literally a real life version of some greek hero.
he's considered the best martial artist in history.
he studied philosophy in college, got a philosophy degree.
he revolutioned martial arts and founded his own style.
he founded a philosophy school.
he is the inspiration of jackie chan and most martial artists actors.
plenty of references to him from film, books, tv, commercials, videogames.

when he died at 35, he had a body of a 18 year old male.

his technique hasn't been surpased.
among many other physical feats.

he trained both his mind and his body, to reach full potential.

He's literally god.

I forgot, he literally invented what we understand as fitness.

>>8329070

so what

>>8329075
you asked what's interesting about him.
I just told you he trained hard his mind and body.

what do you expected?

he's literally an anime character IRL.

None of this is answering OP.

The question is WHY?

WHY are modern intellectual types so neglectful of their bodies?

>>8329095
why is a childish question

>>8329095
I guess it has been answered in a way. Because we don't HAVE to labor, we get in the habit of living a life of "comfort"

>>8329070
>he is the inspiration of jackie chan

It seems weird to work hard on your brain yet let your body rot.

>>8327680
>how come they work so hard on their brain and then let their body rots.
because its not important in the real world. bruce lee main thing was being a fighter he was required to be in shape

Have to put all their efforts into mastering it.

I like bruce lee but this post is idiotic and probably came from some 17 yr old fat kid from /fit/ who needs inspiration which is cool. but you do realize some people work 12 hour shifts at their jobs right?
not everybody has time counting macros and progressing at the gym when it has no benefits besides "aesthetics"

>>8329120


A surprising amount of people in high level positions in business, tech, etc. Regularly exercise. Not to Bruce Lee levels sure, but they definitely don't sit around wasting away.

>>8329095
From what I can guess, maybe it's because they justdon't care about it, and that's valid.

>>8329131
yeah they do just enough so they don't kill over from all the adderall/coffee they drink to stay awake. but OP is talking about "best bodies" and im telling him thats irrelevant to a lot of people

>>8329120
>>8329137
you only need to workout three times a week and each workout takes less than one hour.

kys fatty apologysts.

>>8329143
First of all post your body :)
anyway you have no clue what you're talking about. nobody is making any gains bsing for less than an hour. even with a fullbody routine
did you also not forget diet?

Like I said it's not important to them to mess with a successful routine/formula just for "aesthetics"

1. To accomplish by work or effort: worked out a compromise.
2. To find a solution for; solve: worked out the equations; worked out their personal differences.
3. To formulate or develop: work out a plan.
4. To discharge (an obligation or debt) with labor in place of money.
5. To prove successful, effective, or satisfactory: The new strategy may not work out.
6. To have a specified result: The ratio works out to an odd number. It worked out that everyone left on the same train.
>7. To engage in strenuous exercise for physical conditioning.
8. To exhaust (a mine, for example).

>>8329113
>yet let your body rot.

That's because you don't know the concept of scale.

There's a difference between eating healthy, and going for 1 hour walks once a day, and spending your entire waking life literally constantly with 160 bpm pulse from working out.

Doing the former is good for you, doing the latter only few people bother doing, and it is why he is unique in that regard. If everyone started doing it, he would literally become a nobody.

>>8327680
>Schopenhauer didn't workout
he did though "life is movement* and gets shaped by it"
*Aristotle referens, paraphrasing holla at me plebs

>>8327680
The burden of proof is on you, simp. Why should people who live lIves in which physical labor is irrelevant bother to exrecise beyond basic maintanence to cope with the effects of aging?

I assume I hit a nerve.

I'm white so I could care less. White privilege means we're the greatest race, otherwise White privilege wouldn't exist.

idk but after a day with increased physical activity i find it easier to read and comprehend philosophical works, so i do every day at least some sit-ups

>>8329258

The original joke went completely over your head.

>>8329259

If white men are the greatest, then why are white women breeding with niggers?

>>8329205
because you can't pickup girls if you have a belly dad.

most intelectuals despised women because they couldn't score hot mad teenager pussy.

>>8329282

Really hope you're being ironic. I take no qualms with having pride for who and what you are, but those arms are weak as fuck and only a narcissistic dimwit would think otherwise.

Yeah, not everyone needs to be a bodybuilder, but everyone ought to be honest with themselves. Unless you started as an anorexic then that's no size or definition to be proud of.

To prove my point, what's your flexing circumference?

>>8329120
>it has no benefits besides "aesthetics"
Idiot.

>>8329427
um no friendo? I know im weak only been lifting for awhile :)
Lifting is fun and gym people are chill

>>8329388
T. Pseud in not only literary but also personal health fields

Jesus fucking christ kill yourself. Weightlifting and bodybuilding's magic is done on rest days you fucking retard that's why almost every regimen that isn't some insane spergelord wrestler on rides is a 3-4x a week one. Kys so hard

>>8329427
ayy lmao look at this insecure faggot talking down other peoples archievements.

>>8329421
>>8329427
slightly better pic but I'm standing by what I said for now. I can already tell your lats, delts, and traps are lacking, with that I can infer your legs are probably also lacking. If you're making progress then that's good, keep it up, but I'm not even a /fit/ browser and I remain unimpressed.

Also, since the conversation started about women and race I should point out that the vast majority of women either don't care about physique or actually dislike overtoned or largely muscular builds. They tend to like skinny and slightly defined. So, you might get a lot of poon but your bangin history and your body aren't not impressive to non-betas, and even then most betas wouldn't care.

Weightlifting's a meme desu. Just run and do shit that only requires a surface and get ottermode like Bruce Lee.

>>8329434
>being a narcissist is ok
spotted the nietzche memer

>>8329439
hmm I think you misread my original post or I communicated poorly
I said being muscular has nothing to do with women liking you. neither being black
Lifting is fun but it's not some secret key to making your life better only I can do that by doing my best everyday.

>>8329446
>I'm ok with my life being mediocre as fuck

Yeah I probably did misunderstand then. I used to like lifting, but arthritis and apathy worked their way into my life and I started realizing I was too tired to write or do other intellectual activities. Learn as much as you can about it so you don't fuck yourself up with injuries because a life of constant pain isn't worth it. I know a few people who have had lifting related injuries. I look like shit now and I hate it, but I don't care enough to work at it again. Plus I love shitty food and can't imagine going back to a real bodybuilder diet again.

>>8329467
not him but why do people injured when lifting?
because they take too much they can handle?

are they dumb?

The person you're replying to probably didn't do either or both pre- and post-workout stretches. Also swimming and calisthenics tops "hurr pik it up and put it bak down hurr" any day.

>>8329467
I'm telling you, man, just do running and do stuff like push-ups, sit-ups and pull-ups.

Lots of reasons, that's one but there are a host of other reasons ranging from cardiovascular problems (heart attacks, passing out) to weird things like anal prolapsing. Getting an injury doesn't mean you're dumb, it's just that most people don't educate themselves enough when embarking on the fitness journey, and even then, mistakes happen.

Most commonly injuries are joint related since joints, ligaments, and tendons are fragile. Those injuries are often caused by poor form during exercises. Poor form can result in hyper-extension and overstressing of those weak and vulnerable areas resulting in dislocation, tearing, inflamation among other things.

The most common form related error I see is the "bring the barbell to your chest" thing. Your elbows should not go past parallel with your back, if they do the likelihood of injury is drastically increased and the added benefit of reaching deeper into the pectorals is strikingly minimal by comparison. Better results can be gained through supplementary exercises rather than trying to limit yourself to the "core" lifts.

>>8329483
I forgot to mention stretching is important, but it's related to joints, ligaments, and tendons.

Swimming is one of the best full body and cardio exercises you can do, but it won't make you strong or super sleek by itself. There's nothing dumb about lifting. I follow the motto of a many others out there, "work out smarter not harder."
