@chanfelix I didn't want to get recognised back than, black and white gave me a better cover :) Now I don't care about that anymore, I'm in the newspaper and if someone I know watches my videos, I'm find with that.
Besides that, I liked to get an original video. My color videos were of poor quality as I made them with my cellphone back then.
really good man. thats what i need for the low part of the back. flexibility, but also theres a mental atttitued that i need to look, why i send my resistance there.
I can do this .. not easy at all and it takes months of practice, training and dedication. When I do it (been doing for years now) my head still feels like it will explode, but I've never done the "fart" thing though.

@MajkeTiTvoje I'll need to wait 40 years to do that, so on that part I have to admire it. Jack Lalanne was also a true legend, you should search him on the web.
@lynxconstruction It's the very same thing, but if you want to see it with straight legs for esthetic reasons you can click on the link in the video to watch the remake.
@jlvi13 yes it does all strong, fast and hard kicks comes from a healthy and strong core in other words fatties cant kick. you need abs and training of course. greetings
@daxplil A strong core will, but this is not a good exercise to properly develope a good core. That's what I think. If you can't kick according to the correct technique you just can't kick, no matter how strong your abs are. A fattie can still kick hard, because he can have incredibly strong abs underneath his layer of fat. Sure, his stomach might get in the way, but other than that you made the wrong assumption. This exercise makes the core stronger, but it's not the best core exercise
@daxplil yeah but according to Gregorys question it does help for better, stronger, faster, and harder kicks.... not higher as you need to stretch your leg tendons. but you get the idea :)
@ffztu9865 Deadlifts if you are more experienced with weightlifting. Otherwise hyperextensions on the floor or with a special hyperextensions machine at the gym.
@jlvi13 dude beast work out, well it seems like it. maybe i can finally get that 8 pack. i have a six pack but i see for some reason another set of abs... i don't know if thats normal.(no i'm not fat)
@Mrrunescapeaddict100 Not everybody has the ability to get 8 pack abs. It depends on the fact if you HAVE '8 pack abs'. Some people don't have that many 'blocks' on their abdominal section. Hope I explained it properly.
@Mrrunescapeaddict100 Just anatomy and experience. I have seen people that didn't have the potential to develope real good 8 pack or 10 pack abs, but that did have very low body fat.
@JerseyBoy9220 Oh yes, I definitely agree with that, but I think the word 'everything' is way to big. Our brain and body is able to do way more than we think.
By all means @jerseyboy9220 i think you are wrong ANYTHING is possible, but your trying to be the smart one here when no one asked. This exercise will only hurt if you lack back strength it wont get you later in years.
@amiro96a I'm not that big of a fan of Bruce Lee as most of my viewers. He has inspired me for a while, but I have completely different goals than he had and I'm not interested in trying to be the same as him.
@jlvi13 Large hadron collider this week shot a neutrino faster than the speed of light disproving one of the most fundimental theorys of physics. I get what your saying but this week of any week in history is probably the worst you could have picked to make a comparison against the speed of light :p Seriously good training though:) keep it up!
@alexhughes24 1 single neutrino is not the same as a human being, let alone an airship. It will never happen that WE will travel with that speed. A collider has perfect conditions to do such things.
@jlvi13 maybe I was just being difficult lol :p Still they thought even that was impossible even a year ago so maybe one day the possibility of travel at light speed will not appear so impossible :P Either way epic training mate and well done, I really enjoy your videos
@alexhughes24 True, there might be some chance it will ever happen, but I still hardly think that will ever happen. Would be pretty unrealistic if people could travel that fast, techniques will develope fast, but I wonder if our bodies will ever adjust to moving what that speed. I think you'll instantly die.
@amiro96a holy shit,give the guy a break,hes inspired by the philiosophies of Bruce Lee,he does this exercise and he is trying to imitate or out do Bruce Lee? Your an idiot!
@amiro96a anyone with the right amount of determination and perserverance can best bruce lee. He was human not a superhero, if bruce lee can do it, anyone can.
@amiro96a that's failure talk ,ur already talkin negative ,then well never get as good as him,talk positive,u can accomplish anything ,bruce lee didnt talk negative,he aimed for the skies,kept trying
No matter how strong your back is, if you do this ab excercise on a regular basis, u will suffer for it in later years... serious back issues will ensue.
@mattskis84 That's why I don't call this an exercise, but rather a skill. I never do it on a regular basis, only for videos like these. It's why I put warnings in the video.
@strides1000 There will be a lot of stress on your core muscles, which might, or might not lead to back injuries in a later time of your life. When performing it perfectly the chance of getting injuries is always smaller though. Working out in general can be considered as unsafe, but how often do you really get injuries? I almost never and the benefits weigh up to the downsides. But, as said before, there are better ways to work out your core then with this 'skill'.
@ps3nikola Because it's not a good exercise for your lower back. If you lack back strenght you can't do this exercise without pain. I wouldn't recommend anyone to do this exercise in a workout routine. It's not extremely effective and it puts a lot of stress on your spine.
@shadowmanfan Well, to cite Bruce Lee: Learn the rules, keep the rules, break the rules. To learn implies you have a teacher who shows you things which you emulate. Then, when you master everything - first then you can express yourself.
@AlphaGinga It's only called sixpack abs when you can actually see your abs. Of course everybody has the muscles for it, but without a low bodyfat percentage you should not call it a 6 pack. So to say 'not true at all' makes 0 sense.
@jlvi13 I think that's just subjective, if your abdominal muscles are still formulating a 6 pack, regardless of it being visible. It's still a six pack. That's like saying you don't have biceps if you have flabby arms. The muscles still exist and if you're focusing a lot on core work outs but not burning fat, you can be pretty confident that the anatomy of the 6 pack abs still exists. So how does that make zero sense I ask you?
@AlphaGinga It's not subjective, but I get your point. It doesn't make sense, but that's just how people say it. I didn't make it up, people only call it sixpack abs when they are actually visible. Even though everybody indeed has '6 pack' abs underneath their fat. Compare it to the sun. People always say the sun is shining or isn't shining, while it's always shining. I think that point explains it all and hope you understand I'm not making fun of you or something.
@jessedordevicTV ;) Probably smoking, drugs and jumping off a bridge with a wire around your neck are in front of it though, because this still is healthier then those things xD
you are one of the few people on youtube who knows what there doin, I also own the art of expressing the human body and many more bruce lee books, i follow up on his philosophy , you should check my videos out too...ima subscribe
@alleseitenundkeinese Yeah, eating not a lot of food and doing an insane amount of cardio and strenght training are the other 3 components of why Bruce Lee had those insane abs. There is better information about nutrition these days. I've seen his diet and it didn't impress me. He ate nearly nothing. Even I eat more, but that's what makes it so special. Without a proper diet he still managed to get that great physique!
@Ghahu Keeping the legs straight isn't much harder then doing it like this. I saw someone at youtube doing it this way and thought it was more difficult. Actually I think neither of the variations is that difficult. I got some videos in which I do it with good form and also with one hand only.
@onesnowfall This is hardly a workout. It's just 1 exercise. I'll send you the link of his ab workout as it's described in the book: The art of expressing the human body.
I read Bruce Lee actually lifted up until all his weight was on his shoulder blades.
Why is everyone obsessed with trying to emulate or be Bruce Lee? When he clearly states in his radio interview etc, Don't copy me! DO NOT LOOK FOR AND TRY TO DUPLICATE ANOTHER, be yourself! Express YOURSELF! Have faith in yourself!
Ask yourself:WHO AM I? try to discover yourself....Find your self...
@shadowmanfan Oh, don't worry, I'm definitely not trying to be like Bruce Lee. A lot of people do see him as a great inspiration and this exercise is also partly known because of him. I have made more Bruce Lee videos just as inspiration. He inspired me, but I'm really not trying to be like him :)
@shadowmanfan Bruce Lee didn't get to where he was by being himself. He duplicated his master's teachings to first be disciplined in martial arts. But he developed himself the way he envisioned perfection. There is no point in telling the guy off for looking up to Bruce Lee. Infact, he's not exactly the wrong guy to look up to for martial art training. Yeah, you know how to quote Bruce Lee. Congratulations to all your numb minded thumbs uppers too for recognizing an irrelevent quote.
@spankysteez Yeah, nobody can learn everything himself before someone else have had some influence first. A kid born in Africa will not learn English by itsself if he/she never heard of it or if nobody gave him a teaching book. We all have had our roots. Without the people who invented the computer there would be no internet. That's how life works. You're the first one to point it out, so thanks for that!
@shadowmanfan The title is obviously a way to attract views, he isn't trying to be like bruce lee he's just useing one of his exercise methods to develop a strong core... If anyone is trying to copy bruce lee hear its you quoting and saying something all ready been said, be yourself and stop trying to "be yourself" because bruce lee said to on a interview or radio.
@shadowmanfan I don't think Bruce was talking people trying to copy his way of life... however when it comes to physical fitness i think everyone would benefit from following Bruce's work ethic...
@shadowmanfan How do you discover yourself? What if what you are very Similar to the one your trying to Duplicate, but you can never say that it's your move.
@cyberhmoob I never really trained for it to be honest. I had a prett strong core before I did it and then I thought one day, let's try it! I know the form can be better (straight legs), but it's an old video. I never do them, but I could easily do them now with straight legs for about 10-15 repetitions I think. It's an advanced ab exercise, but definitely not hard if you really put a lot of effort in it!
@jlvi13 You're probably built for it. The rest of us are just plain bottom heavy. Bruce Lee's body was built perfectly for it too like yours. Lucky you. Bruce Lee mentioned in one of his books, I forgot which but anyways he said that a strong set of abs generates the most powerful accurate punches & well balanced round houses & knees. You ever consider martial arts?
@cyberhmoob I have thought about martial arts a lot. I'm flexible and I wouldn't have to practise splits anymore, because I can already do them. The thing is, that I don't want to focus on everything. I have already given up endurance, because I hated it and rather focus on building muscle and learning cool skills. I prefer a mix of freerunning and gymnastics combined with speed and muscle developement.
Enjoyed That Clip thanks 'jlvi13' Quotable Quotes of our Teacher Bruce Lee:"If you always put limits on yourself and what you can do. physical or anything, you might as well be Dead...It will spread into your work,your morality,your entire being.There are no-limits,only plateaux. But YOU must not stay there,You must go beyond them.If it kills you,it kills you"...
@NadButtLee Wasn't really familiar with this quote. Well, only the beginning though. Use no limits as limit. It's a good quote that I like to practise.
@faisy8 Well, for people who aren't experienced with working out this can in fact be a very hard exercise, which can cause injuries. It asks quite a strong lower back and overall body strenght.
Good video, you can further increase the difficulty (and increase tension to the core muscles) by keeping your legs extended during the entire motion.
@littlewinger08 I never really recommend people to do dragon flags. I think they are cool to show of, but are not more effective then any other ab exercise like crunches or leg raises. I never trained for this particularly, so I can't really give you examples of how you should train for it. Try to improve your overall core strenght (so also the lower back and obliques) and make sure you have a good grip and you'll be able to do it.
@jlvi13 crunches are the biggest waste of time since the atkins diet. There are so many better ways to work your core. a crunch is like a bicep curl. only good for its own development.
why make this video in black and white? want to fool people to think that you are bruce lee? bruce lee is the legend!
Nice strength you have though, good work.

@jessedordevicTV ;) Probably smoking, drugs and jumping off a bridge with a wire around your neck are in front of it though, because this still is healthier then those things xD

alleseitenundkeinese 10 months ago
@alleseitenundkeinese Yeah, eating not a lot of food and doing an insane amount of cardio and strenght training are the other 3 components of why Bruce Lee had those insane abs. There is better information about nutrition these days. I've seen his diet and it didn't impress me. He ate nearly nothing. Even I eat more, but that's what makes it so special. Without a proper diet he still managed to get that great physique!

Aaah, boy, dont move your legs and keep em straight!
even if thats extremely hard
Ghahu 11 months ago
@Ghahu Keeping the legs straight isn't much harder then doing it like this. I saw someone at youtube doing it this way and thought it was more difficult. Actually I think neither of the variations is that difficult. I got some videos in which I do it with good form and also with one hand only.

I read Bruce Lee actually lifted up until all his weight was on his shoulder blades.
Why is everyone obsessed with trying to emulate or be Bruce Lee? When he clearly states in his radio interview etc, Don't copy me! DO NOT LOOK FOR AND TRY TO DUPLICATE ANOTHER, be yourself! Express YOURSELF! Have faith in yourself!
Ask yourself:WHO AM I? try to discover yourself....Find your self...

@shadowmanfan Oh, don't worry, I'm definitely not trying to be like Bruce Lee. A lot of people do see him as a great inspiration and this exercise is also partly known because of him. I have made more Bruce Lee videos just as inspiration. He inspired me, but I'm really not trying to be like him :)
jlvi13 1 year ago
@shadowmanfan He was obviously not talking about his physical appearance...Don't try to be a smart-ass its not for you.
GetR3al 11 months ago
@shadowmanfan Bruce Lee didn't get to where he was by being himself. He duplicated his master's teachings to first be disciplined in martial arts. But he developed himself the way he envisioned perfection. There is no point in telling the guy off for looking up to Bruce Lee. Infact, he's not exactly the wrong guy to look up to for martial art training. Yeah, you know how to quote Bruce Lee. Congratulations to all your numb minded thumbs uppers too for recognizing an irrelevent quote.

@spankysteez Yeah, nobody can learn everything himself before someone else have had some influence first. A kid born in Africa will not learn English by itsself if he/she never heard of it or if nobody gave him a teaching book. We all have had our roots. Without the people who invented the computer there would be no internet. That's how life works. You're the first one to point it out, so thanks for that!

@shadowmanfan The title is obviously a way to attract views, he isn't trying to be like bruce lee he's just useing one of his exercise methods to develop a strong core... If anyone is trying to copy bruce lee hear its you quoting and saying something all ready been said, be yourself and stop trying to "be yourself" because bruce lee said to on a interview or radio.

He didn't simply do it. That takes training and days of stomach pain after wards. I can do it as well & it isn't cake.
cyberhmoob 1 year ago
@cyberhmoob I never really trained for it to be honest. I had a prett strong core before I did it and then I thought one day, let's try it! I know the form can be better (straight legs), but it's an old video. I never do them, but I could easily do them now with straight legs for about 10-15 repetitions I think. It's an advanced ab exercise, but definitely not hard if you really put a lot of effort in it!
jlvi13 1 year ago
@jlvi13 You're probably built for it. The rest of us are just plain bottom heavy. Bruce Lee's body was built perfectly for it too like yours. Lucky you. Bruce Lee mentioned in one of his books, I forgot which but anyways he said that a strong set of abs generates the most powerful accurate punches & well balanced round houses & knees. You ever consider martial arts?
cyberhmoob 1 year ago
@cyberhmoob I have thought about martial arts a lot. I'm flexible and I wouldn't have to practise splits anymore, because I can already do them. The thing is, that I don't want to focus on everything. I have already given up endurance, because I hated it and rather focus on building muscle and learning cool skills. I prefer a mix of freerunning and gymnastics combined with speed and muscle developement.

Enjoyed That Clip thanks 'jlvi13' Quotable Quotes of our Teacher Bruce Lee:"If you always put limits on yourself and what you can do. physical or anything, you might as well be Dead...It will spread into your work,your morality,your entire being.There are no-limits,only plateaux. But YOU must not stay there,You must go beyond them.If it kills you,it kills you"...

faisy8 1 year ago
@faisy8 Well, for people who aren't experienced with working out this can in fact be a very hard exercise, which can cause injuries. It asks quite a strong lower back and overall body strenght.
jlvi13 1 year ago 2
Good video, you can further increase the difficulty (and increase tension to the core muscles) by keeping your legs extended during the entire motion.
JosPloegmakers 1 year ago 2
@JosPloegmakers I usually did it that way, but in another video I saw someone doing it like this, so that's why I did it this way as well.

are there any methods of doing the dragonflag? I've sorta done most of the other ab exercises and I have yet to try this particular exercise
littlewinger08 1 year ago
@littlewinger08 I never really recommend people to do dragon flags. I think they are cool to show of, but are not more effective then any other ab exercise like crunches or leg raises. I never trained for this particularly, so I can't really give you examples of how you should train for it. Try to improve your overall core strenght (so also the lower back and obliques) and make sure you have a good grip and you'll be able to do it.
jlvi13 1 year ago
dragon flags are also mentally challenging

@jlvi13 crunches are the biggest waste of time since the atkins diet. There are so many better ways to work your core. a crunch is like a bicep curl. only good for its own development.
