You guys have been really enjoying the weight training we’ve had coming in with our Solo Leveling characters, so I’m bringing in another jacked hunter today.
Joining our Solo Leveling Inspired Workouts is Go Gunhee, the Korean S-Rank Hunter!
I’m definitely going to be bringing a few more characters that we can build around calisthenics training to even out our Solo Leveling database a bit, but for now I’m sticking to the requests for Go Gunhee and other jacked characters.
The requests will only compound when our Solo Leveling anime comes out, so for now I’m just glad we made sure to have our database hit ten characters overall.
Go Gunhee Stats:
Real Name: Go Gunhee
Height: N/A
Weight: N/A
Anime/Manga: Solo Leveling
Powers: Yes
We don’t have an exact height and weight for Go Gunhee, but one thing I can tell you is that he is large…and old!
Gunhee is over 80 years old but still maintains his muscular physique.
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.

Go Gunhee 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.

Go Gunhee 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 Go Gunhee we’ll be pulling from his Wiki Fandom page, starting with an extremely brief bio section they give us here:
Go Gunhee was a Korean S-Rank Hunter and the Chairman of the Korean Hunters Association.
This doesn’t give us much to go on, but one thing we can immediately make note of is the fact that he is definitely extremely powerful being an S-Rank Hunter.
From there we can also utilize his appearance section a bit being that we’ll be factoring it into how we build out this workout:
Gunhee was a muscular old man with gray hair, greenish-gray eyes, and numerous scars on his body. When using his powers, his eyes glowed bright yellow. As a high-ranking government official, he was usually seen wearing a three-piece suit.
Although he’s 80 years old, Gunhee still has a muscular physique, which will be one of the main goals for our workout.
When we move down into his powers and abilities we learn that he’s extremely powerful and that we will definitely have our work cut out for us.
They lead off with a bit about his overall abilities here:
As the vessel of a Ruler, Gunhee was one of the strongest hunters in the world and easily the second strongest hunter in Korea after Jinwoo. However, his old age prevented him from using his powers to their max and fighting for prolonged periods of time.
Even though he is over 80 years old and it prevents him from having a ton of endurance for his powers, he still has a ton of strength and speed that we’ll have to work around for this workout:
Immense Strength: Gunhee possessed immense physical strength. He was strong enough to shatter large layers of ice with a single headbutt and easily deflect an energy blast from the Frost Monarch with his bare hand.
Immense Durability: Despite his old age, Gunhee was an incredibly durable fighter. He was able to remain conscious for a significant amount of time after the Frost Monarch stabbed him through the chest and even gather enough strength to fling a fireball at the latter, only missing by a hair’s breath.
Immense Speed: Gunhee was remarkably fast in combat. He was able to keep up with the Frost Monarch in their brief battle and proved to be agile enough to even dodge some of the latter’s attack from point-blank range.
Ruler’s Authority: Gunhee was able to control and move objects via telekinesis.
Spiritual Body Manifestation
This makes the basis for our workout pretty obvious.
The goals for our Go Gunhee Inspired Workout are:
- Go Gunhee’s Massive Muscular Physique (Even at 80)
- Go Gunhee’s Enhanced Strength
- Go Gunhee’s Enhanced Speed
Go Gunhee was once easily the strongest hunter in Korea.
The main goals of our training will be his strength and muscle mass, and the speed will come along with it – but we’ll also be factoring in his age and what we know of him not having as much endurance and longevity as he used to.
For that reason we’ll be building this workout around a 3 day split that you can add more days to, rather than a 4-6 day split we may have built if Gunhee was still in his prime.
Check out all The SHJ Programs and start unleashing your inner SuperHuman.
