Bruce Lee, the routine.

I'll ask the question again.

How do you effectively measure power?

Don't say the squat lol.

punch force / impact in pounds per square inch.
or
you could let some one of Lee's size and Bolo punch you in the head, then measure how long it takes you to get out of hospital, which ever bloke kept you in the hospital longer, hit you with more power.
 
MMA is just an opportunity for thugs with no particular skill in any one discipline

MMA was originally a challenge of disciplines, but has now evolved into its own style, and that is to take the opponent down as quickly as possible within the rules.
its quite ugly really, looks more like a street brawl than any art.

yes that was my point, a bunch of thugs brawling
 
Kung foo is not a fighting or strength discipline, it's nothing more then a stylised dance for people brainwashed by shitty fantasies about 1 inch punches and flailing forearms.

True. Generally useless for combat. A fit amateur boxer or Judo player would make mince meat out of most of the karate, gungfu and TKD fairies. (TKD isn't a combat art - the rules of competition are so unrealistic that the competitors train to make themselves useless in real combat).

But gungfu is an interesting exercise in history and philosophy of the martial arts especially when you're too old for the impact.

Just about anything can be called a martial art if it's effective. Including baseballbatkwondo.

The degree to which you can overpower an opponent, if skill sets are equalish, which they should be in a well matched fight then there are only a couple other variables namely the ability to absorb your opponents power (glass jaw syndrome), strategy & stamina.

strategy and stamina are trumped by power or your ability to absorb hence the reason for weight divisions and fighters filling out to match their height as they fulfill their potential.

Dude what a load of shit, people from all walks of life are MMA fighters, teachers, office workers, doctors and the like do this and are extremely successful for example Hall of famer Rich Franklin who is a math high school teacher

I dont know where your bias comes from
 
Anyway, the workout listed was simple, using basic exercises that covered the whole body, you could use this for your entire lifting life.

You bastards are so literal
