Book Reviews of The Art of Expressing the Human Body
Book Review: ...Not the total expression
Summary: 3 Stars
I started to by this one to complete the series,not because it was good work. This one is at best an attempt by Little to fill the pages with typical fitness info since material on Bruce's bodybuilding was limited. Example.
Bruce had an exercise called the flag where he laid flat on a bench, grabbed the support bars, and elevated his torso in mid-air at a 45 degree angle and held it. You dont see much on this because its difficult. I was hopiing this work captured that move. Nothing. Bruce modified much of the basic stuff in this book so you can hardly say this is what he was actually doing. Just like he modified wing chun, boxing, and fencing for the nucleus of Jeet Kune Do.These described exercises in the weight room are typical of any good fitness manual.The photos of Bruce's definition are good but they are being exploited in this work pass off the mundane fitness stuff you can find anywhere. There are other books that focus better on exactly what the Lee workout consisted of. Pass on this one. If you like the pictures though, get it.Also, I wrote a letter to little about that missing exercise. He didnt answer.
