Hector Doyle Workout: Train like the Massive Baki Character!

Last updated on June 13th, 2022 at 12:04 pm

Next up among our Baki Inspired Workouts is yet another behemoth.

Hector Doyle isn’t one of our most popular Baki characters – or even one of our strongest Baki characters for that matter – but he was still requested enough to warrant prioritizing his routine this week.

One reason is due to the nature of Doyle’s character, making him a fan favorite among a specific niche within the anime fanbase.

Thankfully, he also has a massive muscular physique and some awesome abilities to train around; so I’m not complaining either way.

Plus I also happen to like his character.

If you’re looking to see if he’s a good fit you can also take The Baki Workout Placement Quiz.

Hector Doyle Stats:

Real Name: Hector Doyle

Height: 6’1

Weight: 187 lbs.

Anime: Baki

Powers: Yes/No

Hector is definitely considered tall among male anime characters, but he’d be average if we compared him to superheroes and male celebrities.

And he’s actually shorter than what I like to call our “behemoths” within our Anime Workouts Database.

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.

Hector Doyle 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.

Hector Doyle 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 learn more about Hector Doyle we’ll be pulling right from his Wiki Fandom, starting with this bio section:

Hector Doyle is a fictional character from anime and manga series of Baki. He is a death row inmate who escaped the Caglios Prison to find a suitable opponent to face him. He survived his execution on the electric chair. He doesn’t use a specific fighting style, but is extremely dangerous due to his modified body.

From there we can move on to his abilities section.

They start with information about how he fights with weapons and then they move into his strength as well:

He fights using metal blades implanted into his joints and controlled by a spring system that is inside his fingers. Doyle has high durability: he survived after being shocked with an electric chair, survived after being attack by Retsu Kaiou who used multiple weapons, and he still had strength to fight two thugs. He protected Retsu, staying until the morning, and he lost a lot of blood, but survived.

He also has a generator in his heart which boosts his strength. He has a bomb strapped in his chest that detonates upon physical contact, which is also controlled with his nerves. During the move, when the opponent is near Doyle; he began to use his nerves to activate the bomb strapped to his chest and creates a deadly explosive blast that can severely burn the opponent’s body. Doyle used this in his fight against Koushou Shinogi as his finishing move; managing to severely burn the karate expert’s body before he got a chance to use his Cord-Cut technique. Even though the “chest blast” move is a dangerous and deadly technique to use by a master of hidden weaponry such as Doyle, some fighters with great honor, such as Gerry Strydum, consider this move in disgust as a dirty and unhonorable move to use against martial artists in a hand-to-hand combat fight.

Next up their done dicussing his strength but continue on with more about weapons and even how his hearing improved to superhuman levels after being rendered blind:

He also has a switch located in his ring finger that makes his spring-loaded arm shoot out with such speed and force that it causes the face of those hit by it to sink into itself almost turning inside out. Doyle is strong and fast enough to defeat a prison guard with that punch immediately after he shot at him. He also used it against several powerful fighters such as Koushou Shinogi, Biscuit Oliva and Ryuukou Yanagi, for example.

Doyle is also good in using weapons and different objects. For example, he wore fire-proof clothes and used a bag of mixed wheat flour and gunpowder to destroy the Shinshinkai dojo. He also uses dirty tactics whenever he can like using explosives to win.

After being rendered blind by Retsu and Yanagi, Doyle’s hearing improved to near superhuman levels. However, he later deafened himself intentionally, and now relies strictly on his sense of touch, which has similarly been enhanced even capable of catching bats mid-air.

Don’t worry, we won’t have any blind training in here.

The main goals for this workout routine are:

• Doyle’s Massive Muscular Physique
• Doyle’s Boosted Strength Level
• Doyle’s Fighter Speed and Endurance

For this one we’ll definitely be using weight training, and a lot of it, actually.

So be ready for heavy lifting and a lot of volume – because Doyle is a monster!
