That headline might be a bit confusing.
Ribrianne might not be beautiful, but her base form sure is!
If you’ve been hiding under a rock with Patrick you might not know that we’re currently on a Dragon Ball Z tear.
I recently finished up Dragon Ball Super and then proceeded to see Dragon Ball Super: Broly, so excuse me if I feel the need to get a ton of DBZ characters on the site!
We’ve now seen Goku, Vegeta, Kale, Caulifla, Broly, Videl, Jiren, Kefla and Toppo!
Ribrianne Stats:
Height: N/A
Weight: N/A
Real Name: Brianne de Chateau
Powers: Yes
There’s no listed height and weight for Ribrianne or Brianne de Chateau.
But we’re pretty much used to that for DBZ and Super characters at this point.
Supergirl and Erza Scarlet were our shortest at 5’5 before Wasp came in at 5’4 and Kale, Anna and Nina Williams matching her there. BUT, now we have Caulifla at 4’8! Katana is just behind her at 5’2.
We had Wonder Woman come in standing 6’0 tall, Mockingbird and Hawkgirl at 5’9, Mystique and Sonya Blade at 5’10, and Storm 5’11.
But the average height for female celebrities on the site is generally more-so ranging from 5’4-5’6 – and our Black Widow is just above that at 5’7 with Spider-Gwen, Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy at 5’8.
And, the tallest we’d seen before She-Hulk was Starfire at 6’4!
But don’t worry, either way.
Not only are these routines for all shapes and sizes – they also work for both men and women – regardless of the gender of the hero!

Ribrianne Diet and Nutrition
**Keep in mind: this section will be nearly identical for each hero, unless I mentioned differently (for example someone like Ribrianne 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.
THE RIBRIANNE PORTION:
As I said before, “Ribrianne may get something specifically different.”.
Well, that’s not completely true, but I also want to mention something that is really important for those of you who are looking to put on Doomsday-like mass.
In order to gain weight you’re going to need to eat over your caloric maintenance level.
You need to eat MORE!
It’s important to also get enough protein daily (which we’ve mentioned), so counting macronutrients also really helps (which you can learn more about in the Nutrition Pillars).
So, EAT like Ribrianne would to be STRONG!!!

Ribrianne Workout Routine Research
We’ve made it to “the fun part”.
And, if you don’t know by now, I say that every single time we get to the workout routine research section for character workouts.
This is where I get to break down the “how” and “why” of the workout we’re going to build based on the characters, in this case Ribrianne’s, powers and/or abilities.
If you haven’t finished Dragon Ball Super yet, I suggest just skipping to the workout routine.
There will most definitely be some spoilers in this section.
Alright, so one of the reasons I was excited for this one is because we don’t often get women routines that I can also tell you guys to eat a ton and bulk up. Of course Ribrianne’s base form is skinny, but I want to give you guys a routine that is powerlifting and gaining mass to go hand in hand with the Toppo routine we just saw for the men.
Fair enough?
Here’s some of what Ribrianne’s Wiki page has to tell us about her power:
As Ribrianne, she is able to fight on par with Super Saiyan Vegeta, though Vegeta found fighting her repulsive. She was also able to effortlessly eliminate Jirasen. After becoming angry and powering up, she was able to match Android 17, and shattered his barrier with a single punch. She was able to match base Goku (who was not at full power) in combat, and was unfazed by his attacks. Ribrianne reveals her second transformation, Super Ribrianne, in which she grows wings and becomes faster and stronger – to which Goku responds by using more of his base form’s power. In this form, Ribrianne is able to force base Goku on the defensive.
I dig it.
What about you?
No. I will not be teaching you how to power up a fly…

The Ribrianne Workout Routine
Training Volume:
3+ days per week
Explanation:
We’re going to be mixing powerlifting with mixed martial arts (this is the female version of Toppo’s routine). So while we’re trying to build muscle, the calories burned via the MMA will be fighting against it a bit (which is where our diet really needs to shine to make up for it and keep us in a surplus). I’m programming you a beginner powerlifting routine and it’s your job to mix in the MMA from Coach Derek.
