We took a bit of an intermission from our Hunter X Hunter Inspired Workout spree, but now we’re back.
I had been wanting to get a Dr. Stone inspired workout up on the site, and I decided it was finally time to get our Senku Ishigami Inspired Workout – regardless of his physical abilities.
That being said, we also already saw Zeno Zoldyck and Menthuthuyoupi this week after hitting a milestone and getting our Hunter X Hunter Workout Placement Quiz last week!
It’s safe to say The SHJ Army is really loving the HXH.
Silva Zoldyck Stats:
Real Name: Silva Zoldyck
Height: 6’6
Weight: 242 lbs.
Anime: Hunter X Hunter
Powers: Yes
Silva Zoldyck is massive.
He’s not quite as big as All Might and Endeavor – but he is still gigantic.
Wolverine was the shortest spot among comic characters we’ve seen at 5’3, prior to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles coming in at 5’2, (and Gimli even shorter) – but Damian Wayne (Robin) is only 5’4. Goku isn’t that tall either, though, standing only 5’7, with Miles Morales only an inch above him.
One Punch Man falls in at 5’9 right there with Ryu, Nightwing at 5’10, and then Spider-Man, Daredevil, and Green Arrow coming in around 5’11 and Beast joining them.
We’ve had Superman and Eddie Brock’s Venom at 6’3, and Captain America, Scorpion and Batman at 6’2, and Carnage at 6’1. Thor and Cyborg are towering over them at 6’6, Thanos and King right there with them at 6’7, Bane at 6’8, and Deathstroke right below at 6’5, and Black Manta at 6’4.
Ronan and Sagat are 7’5, and Doomsday came in at 8’10, and I doubt any characters are touching that anytime soon.
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.

Silva Zoldyck Diet and Nutrition
**Keep in mind: this section will be nearly identical for each hero.**
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 Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart incorporate 80/20 dieting with big weekly cheat meals, Hugh Jackman, Tom Hopper, Benedict Cumberbatch and Terry Crews utilize intermittent fasting (something I use daily as well), Ariana Grande, Mustafa Shakir and Madelaine Petsch are vegans, Brandon Routh and Frank Grillo opt for paleo, and tons of others utilize their own variations as well.
It’s all about sustainability.
AND, 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!
Curious where over a hundred celebs fall in their dietary choices ranging from High Protein and Keto to Vegetarian, Vegan and Intermittent Fasting? Want exclusive celeb meal plans? Check this out.

Silva Zoldyck 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.
To get us started, just like our other anime inspired workouts, we’ll be pulling straight from Silva Zoldyck’s Wiki Fandom page.
Here’s what they give us for a brief bio to start:
Silva Zoldyck is the current head of the Zoldyck Family and the father of Killua.
Being that they don’t tell us much, I’ll elaborate on information you should likely already know by telling you that the Zoldyck Family is a famous family of assassins in Hunter X Hunter.
So, put that piece of information together with what they give us for his bio and we know we’re training like an extremely powerful assassin.
They go on to tell us more about his powers and abilities with a broad overview before breaking them down into specific sections one by one:
Being a world-renowned assassin and head of the infamous Zoldyck Family, Silva is an extremely skilled Nen user and unarmed combatant, as he was trained in the art of assassination from a very young age. Like many Zoldyck Family members, Silva is extremely resistant to poison and has great strength, speed, and superhuman control over his body. He also defeated and killed an unknown member of the Phantom Troupe three years prior to the start of the main story, and dueled against Chrollo to an unknown result (both of them survived, though, and in the anime, Silva was shown coming back with no visible injury).
When they go on to break it down into each individual category they say:
Assassination skills: Silva is one of the best killers in the world. According to Killua, he can tear out the heart of a person without dropping a single blood drop.
Immense Strength: Silva has tremendous physical strength, as demonstrated when he fell from the sky, crushing Cheetu’s head with a single blow and creating a large crater while taking no damage himself. During his fight with Chrollo his punch, although blocked, retained enough power to cause the Phantom Troupe leader to lose his balance.
Immense Speed: Killua mentioned that he could rip out somebody’s heart so fast that it would not even bleed. He matched Zeno and Chrollo in speed during their confrontation.
Enhanced Durability: Silva’s skin cannot be pierced by ordinary blades. His hair is strong enough to act as a tourniquet.
Immense Poison Resistance: Poison is ineffective against Silva, as seen when Chrollo attempted to poison him by cutting him with his Ben’s Knife, Silva popped the poison out of the cut and resumed fighting with apparently no consequence, although he deemed necessary the application of a tourniquet. Chrollo himself was surprised because 0.1 milligrams of the toxin he used is enough to paralyze a whale.
Master Hand-to-Hand Combatant: Silva is capable of gouging out a man’s heart with his bare hands and at an impressive speed, Killua claiming he can do so without spilling a drop of blood from the wound. He fights using both his arms and legs, harnessing the full strength of his body. When in tandem with Zeno, he puts all his power in his blows at the expense of leaving himself open, knowing that his father will cover him.
We’re not going to learn how to rip someone’s heart out without dropping a single blood drop BUT we will be training for immense strength and speed.
For this one we’re going to be utilizing heavy weight training that will allow us to build the strength we need while making us fast and also working towards the physique of Silva Zoldyck as well.
We’ll be pairing some endurance work, HIIT work and optional mixed martial arts on top of all of it to really become as well rounded as Silva.
So get ready for volume.
