We're making out way through all of the most popular anime characters that have already made waves inside our Anime Workouts Database, and next up is Izuku Midoriya!
Midoriya is a fun character to do a breakdown for because even though many people in The SHJ Army would already love his toned physique, Deku is definitely still bulking up and getting bigger and stronger as the seasons go on.
We'll still be taking a look at his caloric breakdown for each goal, as always, but this is a fun one to really zoom in on.
You guys have been asking for something like this for a LONG time, and I have now brainstormed some ways with our Plus Ultra members that we can make this fun, without confusing people into thinking it's effective to eat exactly like an anime character. Instead, we'll be talking about how they WOULD eat in real life.
NOTE ON ANIME DIET PLANS / "HOW WOULD THEY EAT" ARTICLES:
The reason why it took so long for me to be convinced to do "anime diet plans" and articles like this one is because eating like an anime character would be counterproductive and any way you swing it would do more harm than good for 99% of people by confusing the actual basis of what is needed to lose weight and gain muscle. That said: this is built around our SHJ 4-Tier Nutrition System and how each character WOULD eat in real life based on their stats and bonus information.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THIS DIET & BREAKDOWN:
I have now launched The Anime Diet, which revolves around our 4-Tier Nutrition System, as well as multiple Anime Cookbooks which allow you to pull fun recipes into your diet while still leveling up.
The basis of this Deku Diet Plan will be to discuss how Deku would eat based on his height and weight to do three things: Lose Fat, Maintain Weight and Gain Strength, and Gain Muscle Mass.
I'll be using the same calculators we use within our Plus Ultra membership to break down our 4-Tier Nutrition System - which is why you'll see multiple different levels for protein intake that we use with members as they scale up!
We'll also end with a fun section below that will discuss some things Deku has been seen eating, but I'll only name a couple so that you guys can comment below with more! 🙂
DEKU HEIGHT, WEIGHT & STATS:
Stats We Will Be Using In Our Dietary Calculators:
Height: 5'5 1/4
Weight: Unknown
**For this one I will be using 135 lbs.**
Age: 15-16 (16 current)
Gender: Male
Activity Level: To make this relevant for us and stick to the "in real life" theme we're going for, I'm going to be using "moderate training level" for all characters.
Please keep in mind that the majority of characters have an absolutely INSANE activity level (like we see from some athletes) that would actually allow them to eat at some ridiculous level.
