We’re going to keep the My Hero Academia Inspired Workouts going and bring in another badass female pro hero.
Mt. Lady may not be in the top ten pros like a couple others we’ve seen here, but she is still one of the best.
She even came in as one of the Most Powerful My Hero Academia Female Characters of All Time and she’s definitely a fan-favorite.
Even though I won’t be teaching you guys how to transform like Mt. Lady and walk around nearly 70″ tall – she’s still going to be a damn good addition to our Anime Workouts Database and even our My Hero Academia Workout Placement Quiz.
Mt. Lady Stats:
Real Name: Yu Takeyama
Height: 5’4 (67’8 Transformed)
Weight: N/A
Anime: My Hero Academia
Powers: Yes
Mt. Lady isn’t actually that tall prior to her transformation.
Her 5’4 actually puts her in at the lower range of average height.
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 and Sailor Moon at 4’11! 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, Miss Martian, 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.

Mt. Lady 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.

Mt. Lady 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 kickstart our Mt. Lady research we’re going to be pulling right from her Wiki Fandom.
Fingers crossed for a decent bio, because as we know the MHA Fandom usually skimps us out on the initial bio but then makes up for it later on!
Here’s what they give us:
Yu Takeyama, also known as the Mineyama Hero: Mt. Lady, is the No. 23 Pro Hero and member of The Lurkers.
Okay, so the finger crossing didn’t do much for us.
Although it is important to note that she is the No. 23 Pro Hero – making her extremely powerful and effective.
Other than her Quirk, which we’ll get to, Mt. Lady also has this listed under her powers and abilities section:
Seduction: Yu is a prominent user of the seductive arts, using her looks to get what she wants. This was shown when she convinced a stand vender at the U.A. Sports Festival to give her free food.
Keen Intellect: Despite not being shown using any strategy in combat, Yu still proved that she is a hero that can grasp the context quickly. She can observe and understand what plan her allies are having, and provide any possible support at critical moments without being told beforehand, such as when she protected Izuku’s group as mentioned above, or when she tried to pry Gigantomachia’s mouth to help the U.A. High School students put the sedative into his mouth.
Neither of these really help us with a workout routine based around Mt. Lady, but she does deserve to have them listed.
Here’s how they break down here Quirk:
Gigantification: Yu’s Quirk allows her to grow to a gigantic size.
She cannot variate between her base-height and the gigantified height achieved via her Quirk, making her only able to be either her normal height of 162cm or her enlarged height 2,062cm tall.
Mt. Lady becomes …. gigantic!
With that she becomes extremely powerful, with her power level actually being ranked 5 out of 5 on the “Ultra Archive” stats within her Wiki Fandom.
For this one we’re going to be training for strength and speed, which both come with her enormous size.
So get ready for weight training, but also to be training like a all around, well rounded Pro Hero!
