We just saw Baki, and now it’s time for a female MMA manga superstar.

In comes Natsuo Ishidō from Teppu.

Baki was based on his manga and then Netflix picked it up, and Teppu never made it to a TV show (maybe there’s still hope?), but I thought she still deserved a spot on the site.

We’ve also been on an anime role lately, having seen tons of DBZ characters (which I won’t name all of, but you can see all of them listed on Toppo’s workout), plus One Punch Man and All Might as well.

Natsuo Ishidō Stats

Height: 5’5

Weight: 138 lbs.

Real Name: Natsuo Ishidō

Powers: No

Natsuo comes right in around the same height as Baki actually.

I wonder if she’d be okay with that..

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!

Natsuo Ishidō 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.

Natsuo Ishidō 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 Natsuo Ishidō’s, powers and/or abilities.

Here’s some information on her from the Teppu Wiki page:

The plot revolves around Natsuo Ishido, a freshman in high school. She has a natural talent for everything she does, and as a result becomes bored with doing anything. She is often praised (and occasionally hated) for her incredible talent, but in reality she feels lonely, so she is often looking for more and more things to occupy her time. As she fails to find anything that is sufficiently challenging, her loneliness and boredom reach a bottomed-out state.

They continue by telling us a bit more:

She cannot understand why other people cannot do things which she can do and that is because she is naturally talented at everything she does. This has given her a condescending attitude against her opponents, who she goads and teases during their match and after Natsuo’s inevitable victory. She is also ruthless when fighting, whether or not the fight is a serious one. Natsuo has come to the realization that people with the ability to be the best without even trying have the hardest time, since they don’t have anyone to bond with and their whole life is one big competition. She is lonely and yearns for someone who can defeat her and give her something to actually work for. This is all hidden, however.

Kind of reminds me of some of the main protagonists within the Baki series, actually.

While I can’t teach you to simply be a natural, we CAN train our asses off to try to be as good as Natsuo Ishidō.

Do you think you’re ready?
