Robert Speedwagon is definitely one of our most popular non-Joestar characters.
He didn’t quote make our list of our Most Powerful JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure Characters, but he makes it into the top five among our most popular!
Which makes him a great addition to our JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure Inspired Workouts within our larger Anime Workouts Database.
And you better be damn sure I’ll be adding him into our JoJo Workout Placement Quiz as well!
If you missed it: we’re on a bit of a JoJo tear this week because we just released our Unofficial JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure Workout Booklet!
Robert Speedwagon Stats:
Real Name: Robert E. O. Speedwagon
Height: 5’9
Weight: N/A
Anime: JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure
Powers: Yes
Robert Speedwagon is much shorter than our Joestars like Jonathan, Joseph and Jotaro.
But he does come in taller than Johnny Joestar!
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.

Robert Speedwagon 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.

Robert Speedwagon 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 jump into our research on Robert Speedwagon we’ll be pulling right from his Wiki Fandom page.
Here’s how they start us off with a [very] brief bio section:
Robert E. O. Speedwagon is a major ally featured in Phantom Blood and is a minor ally in Battle Tendency.
Moving into his powers and abilities section they lead us off with a bit of an overview:
Speedwagon couldn’t master the Ripple because he wasn’t pressured enough. This is different from Jonathan and Zeppeli, who both carried the mission to stop Dio and the Stone Mask on their shoulders. Zeppeli tried to help him create small Ripples by stimulating the muscles of his diaphragm, but accidentally missed the right point and just managed to hurt Speedwagon. However, due to his life on the street, he is fairly resourceful and has mastered several useful techniques, including the ability to determine someone’s moral alignment purely based on their smell. Speedwagon is a seasoned mugger, thus he knows the basics of combat such as keeping a good guard.
On top of that section they write:
- Saw-Hat: Speedwagon wore a bowler hat with a hidden buzz-saw built into it that was sharp enough to cut through bone. Speedwagon used it during his days as a thief, throwing the hat at his opponent like a projectile for a deadly attack. He was extremely proficient with it, being able to juggle with the hat easily, and throwing it with deadly accuracy.
- Hammer: Not being able to master the Ripple didn’t stop Speedwagon from helping in the fight. He used a sledgehammer powerful enough to kill zombies in just one strike by smashing their heads. In the anime, Speedwagon tried to smash one of Dio’s severed hands with it.
On top of that they also note some additional information about Speedwagon that won’t exactly help us with our training but is important to include:
Following the events of Part 1, Speedwagon traveled to America and got rich in the oil industry. With his fortune, he created the Speedwagon Foundation, an organization featuring studies in medical research, wild animal and plant protection, and secretly, a Supernatural Research Department with the sole purpose of aiding the Joestar Family. As head of this company, Speedwagon has full power over all employees, including several leading scientists and workers. Speedwagon often employs resources in the organization, including transportation by helicopters, submarines, cars, and planes, as well as development in weapons technology.
For the most part we’ll be taking into account the fact that Speedwagon sports a very athletic build and we’ll be focusing in on his overall aesthetic.
We’ll be using a fairly basic weightlifting structure that can be scaled up and down very easily.
On top of that I’ll provide some bonus resources for if you want to step it up a notch and include mixed martial arts, parkour or even just some extra endurance work.
