Ryusei Imai is a 10-year-old boy from Japan.
Following several years of training, he is turning into his idol.
Watching Bruce Lee since one years old
Ryusei is a hardcore Bruce Lee fan.
He has been watching Bruce Lee’s movies since he was one years old.
He could reproduce Lee’s signature nunchuck moves -- when he was only five years old.
Several years of training
After years of training following that martial arts display, Ryusei is well on his way to becoming Bruce Lee.
His body looks nothing like a regular 10-year-old child.
His muscular physique is complete with a six-pack abs.
Daily training
“I want to be cool like Bruce Lee,” Ryusei said on the Australian variety show Little Big Shots.
Ryusei trains every day.
His workouts and physical demonstrations of strength are on show on his Instagram account and others have made videos about him.
Asked what he likes to do when he is not doing Bruce Lee impressions, he replied after thinking hard about it for a few seconds: “I only do Bruce Lee.”
Effects of hard training
Ryusei’s training has caused his knuckles to be covered in blisters.
At his tender age, he is already able to do handstand push-ups with his fingers.
Ryusei's father was once interviewed about his son's training regime.
Asked if he is afraid Ryusei would injure himself, the father explained: “As he is taking the training seriously, injuries are unavoidable. But what’s more important is to train the mind.”
