Bruce Lee is a renowned name in the world of martial arts. But that is not all he is famous for. Lee is globally renowned as an athlete and an actor. In the world of bodybuilding, professionals often admire the ripped physique that Bruce Lee flaunted in his movies. Although, the toned abs and the close zero fat body that the actor had did not happen in a day.

Instead, it was the result of years of training. In a recent interview on the YouTube channel Beerdy – Bruce Lee Central, bodybuilding legend Arnold Schwarzenegger discusses how to match The Dragon?s physique.

Arnold?s two cents to get the perfect abs

In his interview, Arnold explains the approach that everyone needs to religiously follow in order to tone their abs. The only way to do it, according to the 7x Mr. Olympia champion, is ?by burning more calories every day, more than you eat.?

The retired bodybuilder further explains, ?Say you take 2000, you wanna go and have 2000 calories you eat every day, you burn 2500 every day.? Discussing the distribution of body fat for males, he states, ?The first place it will go is the stomach.?
