It’s a little surprising it took us this long to bring Mio Ibuki into our Classroom Of The Elite Inspired Workouts.
Not only is she a super popular character, but she’s also an extremely strong female character that obviously deserves a spot among our workouts!
You guys had requested her a handful of times, but just not quite enough to prioritize her…then all of a sudden we hit eight or nine characters and you guys were ready to flood the request form with Ibuki requests!
We have a handful of female characters with calisthenics workouts among our Classroom Of The Elite routines – so this one is actually going to be built around some full body weight training that will be perfect for Mio Ibuki’s strength level.
Mio Ibuki Stats:
Real Name: Mio Ibuki
Height: 5’2 1/2
Weight: N/A
Anime: Classroom Of The Elite
Powers: No
Mio Ibuki is actually very short.
She would even be considered one of the shortest characters we’ve had on the site so far!
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.

Mio Ibuki 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.

Mio Ibuki 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 Mio Ibuki I’ll be pulling right from her Wiki Fandom page which starts us off with this:
Mio Ibuki is a student of Class 1-C. Not only does she possess excellent academic qualities, but her physical ability is also not to be underestimated. She is skilled in combat, having the knowledge of several martial skills that can rival those of many martial artists.
Right away they make mention to her skill level in combat and mixed martial arts.
From there they don’t give a ton of information on her physical abilities, but enough for us to build on.
Here’s what they have to tell us:
Mio is shown to be a capable fighter, but she is not as strong as Kakeru Ryūen who dodges her attacks and overpowers her easily. In the special island exam arc, she defeated Suzune Horikita in combat, however, it was not clear who would have been stronger if Suzune had not been running a fever. It seems though Mio has taken Capoeira, a Brazilian martial art, as her main fighting style.[6] Despite her skill, she is an inferior opponent against Kiyotaka Ayanokōji who easily swat her aside and Ichika Amasawa who did the same although both opponents were heavily suppressed. She is considered to be the strongest girl in second year which Horikita agreed to that notion.
Normally a heavy mixed martial arts and fighting character would get a calisthenics workout, but Mio Ibuki is also one of the strongest female characters as well (on top of already having plenty of calisthenics workouts within our Classroom Of The Elite Inspired Workouts), so we’ll be doing a weight training routine that will also be pretty hybrid.
The main goals of our Mio Ibuki Inspired Workout are:
- Mio Ibuki’s Slim and Toned Physique
- Mio Ibuki’s Strength and Overall Power Level
- Mio Ibuki’s Fighter Speed and Body Control
As I mentioned above there will be weights involved and we will also be training around an intermediate level.
That means, if you’re a beginner you may want to scale this one down or even start with either our Beginner Behemoth Workout (weights), or our Beginner Ninja Workout (calisthenics)!
