Hi all, Going insane trying to remember the title of an old kung fu movie. Any help appreciated. I remember the following.

Circa 1970s with English dub.

One of the main protagonists kicks only and doesn't use fists when fighting. Believe he predominantly wears white attire from memory.

One of the villains carries an egg timer which he starts before fighting and kills his opponents before the timer runs out. In one scene he is guarding a bridge from memory and upon starting the egg timer says "dying time starts now" or something to that effect.

I also vaguely remember a scene with a man training on top of large barrels of water smashing jugs of water that hang from a tree above.

Any help greatly appreciated. My apologies if this is not the appropriate area to post this.

Not it unfortunately. I should of been more specific it was an old fashion style egg timer. The miniature hour glass style that you turn upside down and wait for the sand to drain through. Cheers for your help though

There is a bridge fight scene in the movie and PK uses the timer.

There is a scene where Dragon Lee was training with jugs attached to trees.

 Yeah think I've merged two movies for that jug scene not exactly how I remembered but this is definitely the movie I was looking for.
