We can't have Anime Diet Plans without Edward Elric!
Edward is short and light, but he packs a HUGE appetite like a lot of the other anime characters we've seen added to our databases so far.
He's actually so small in the series that we'll be pushing up until the point that we see him at the end, his oldest and "largest", if we can call it that.
That will keep it more relevant for all our members of The SHJ Army to actually get some information from! 🙂
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 Edward Elric Diet Plan will be to discuss how Edward Elric 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 Edward has been seen eating, but I'll only name a couple so that you guys can comment below with more! 🙂
EDWARD ELRIC HEIGHT, WEIGHT & STATS:
Stats We Will Be Using In Our Dietary Calculators:
Height: 4'11-5'5
Weight: N/A
**For this one we'll be using his top height and 135 lbs. to make it relevant to our SHJ Army members.**
Age: 11-16 years old
**We will be using 16 in our calculator.**
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.
