Green Lantern Workout Routine: Train like Fighter Pilot and Justice League member Hal Jordan

BONUS: Download the FREE Green Lantern Workout Routine PDF

The Green Lantern Workout

We need all our Justice League members.

Now, I’m not saying that means we’re done yet, but we’re trying.

We’ve seen Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman and now Green Lantern. We’re going to have to hit a couple more members to make me feel okay about this. Like the Flash, Martian Manhunter and even Hawkgirl.

Which one do you guys want to see first?

Oh, and just so you guys aren’t scared to continue: this is not Ryan Reynolds Green Lantern (that would be scary).  This is Green Lantern as a character.

Green Lantern Stats:

Height: 6’2

Weight: 186

Real Name: Hal Jordan

Powers: Yes

Green Lantern is right in range with most of our other heroes.

Although we have seen some that are huge…

Vegeta tied Wolverine for the shortest spot among comic characters we’ve seen at 5’3, but Damian Wayne (Robin) is only an inch taller.  Goku isn’t that tall either, though, standing only 5’7.

One Punch Man falls in at 5’9 right there with Ryu – and then Spider-Man, Daredevil, and Green Arrow coming in around 5’11 and Beast joining them.

Just above them are Aquaman, Red Hood and Punisher standing only an inch or so taller.

We’ve had Superman at 6’3, and Captain America, Scorpion and Batman at 6’2, with Thor and Cyborg towering over them at 6’6, Thanos and King right there with them at 6’7, and Deathstroke right below at 6’5.

And, of course, Hulk is up there with Thor, Kratos, Thanos and Cyborg, and sometimes even portrayed much taller.

Yeah, that means All Might is the tallest at 7’2, only sometimes surpassed by The Hulk – and Zangief just missing the tallest spot at 7’0!

But, don’t worry if you’re not the same height or weight range.

We write these routines to be utilized by anyone and everyone.

Green Lantern Diet and Nutrition

**Keep in mind: this section will be nearly identical for each hero, unless I mentioned differently (for example someone like The Hulk may get something specifically different**

Every hero needs to still have a good diet.

Unfortunately we can train like them, but I don’t think any of us are suddenly getting their powers, or the ability to magically stop caring about nutrition.

You can’t out train your diet, so I want to still give some pillars for nutrition.

You can start by checking out The Nutrition Pillars on the site, but I’ll break down some more information for you guys as well.

Guys like Hugh Jackman and Terry Crews utilize intermittent fasting daily, and I also use it myself in conjunction with cyclical ketosis.

That being said, I also recommend tracking and paying attention to protein intake.

BUT, there are a thousand different ways to reach your goals, so finding the most sustainable way is what’s important.

Which is why our Academy utilizes multiple different Nutrition Classes (Greek Gods, Vikings, Spartans, Hunter Gatherers, Monks, Samurais, Minimalists, Superhumans) to allow people to choose what is right for YOU!

Oh, and if you’re down with calorie counting instead, that’s always an option as well.  It’s just important to be aware of specific rules and precision while counting.

Green Lantern Workout Routine Research

I’m going to say it again. So if you don’t want to hear it just skip a few lines.

We’re finally at “the fun part” of the article.

This is where I get to break down the “how” and “why” of the workout routine I’m going to be building.

AKA: I get to go through the powers, abilities and traits for the character, in this case Green Lantern (Hal Jordan’s).

Hal Jordan’s Wiki tells us this about his abilities:

  • Trained aircraft pilot

Power ring grants:

  • Generation of hard-light constructs
  • Flight
  • Force fields

We don’t have a his power ring….

And I can’t get you one!

So, I figured this would be an awesome time to base a character around an Air Force Pilot!

How many chances do we have to do that!?

Here’s a Basic Training chart for The Air Force shared by Wikipedia:

The following chart shows physical fitness achievement levels as well as the minimum requirements for graduating Air Force Basic Military Training:

Males Run (1.5 mile) Push-ups Sit-ups Pull-ups
Liberator (minimum graduation standard) 11:57 min. 33 42 0
Thunderbolt (honor graduate standard) 9:30 min. 55 60 5
Warhawk (extraordinary – highest standard) 8:55 min. 65 70 10
Females Run (1.5 mile) Push-ups Sit-ups Pull-ups
Liberator (minimum graduation standard) 14:21 min. 27 50 0
Thunderbolt (honor graduate standard) 12:00 min. 37 60 0
Warhawk (extraordinary – highest standard) 10:23 min. 47 54 0

So now we’re ready to do this.

We want to hit Warhawk!
