Invincible has been pretty hyped up lately with the news of an Invincible Live Action Movie possibly coming our way.
Although the movie and the animated series will be two separate things and aim to be extremely different, fans (including myself) are extremely excited!
We’ve already seen a few Invincible inspired workouts grace our Superhero Workouts Database, but now it’s time to bring in a few more, starting with The Immortal.
We had our Invincible Inspired Workout and even our Omni-Man Inspired Workout, and The Immortal is the next most requested character from the series.
Although I will give a slight spoiler and say next up is another antagonist!
The Immortal Stats:
Real Name: Unrevealed
Height: 6’4
Weight: 260 lbs.
Comic: Invincible
Powers: Yes
The Immortal is huge.
At 6’4 and 260 lbs. he comes in at the same height but carrying 20 lbs. of extra muscle on someone like Dwayne Johnson!
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.

The Immortal 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.

The Immortal 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.
We know The Immortal is huge and has a TON of muscle on him, but we’ll need to learn a bit more to build out this routine.
To get us started we’re going to be pulling right from his Wiki Fandom page.
They don’t give us an initial bio section for him, but they do start with a brief history:
Most of the Immortal’s origin is unknown, even to him. Sometime in his past over 3000 years ago, an accident happened to him that gave him his immortality and superhuman abilities. He would take up the duties of a knight possibly under King Arthur as Lancelot, an explorer under or possibly as Christopher Columbus in the Spanish Armada, fought in the American Revolution, became President of the United States by taking the alias of Abraham Lincoln, fought as a soldier in the World War I, and became a superhero in the 1930s. Sometime after becoming a superhero, he would meet Cecil Stedman and become one of the original members of the Guardians of the Globe.
They also make sure to mention a section about his military training within his long list of powers and abilities.
We’ll start with that being that the abilities section is going to be a huge breakdown:
- Military Training: The Immortal has been involved in countless wars during his millennia-long lifespan, making him a formidable tactician and strategist with a hundred lifetimes of experience to call upon.
Now that’s not to say we’re going to have any of this training focus in on military style training after we see his powers and abilities that will likely divert our attention to his strength and overall superpowers, but it is something that is still important to note to get a full picture of his overall character.
Here’s how they break down his list of powers and abilities:
- Accelerated Healing: The Immortal is capable of healing from injuries much faster than average humans.
- Enhanced Lung Capacity: The Immortal is capable of holding his breath in space.
- Flight: Immortal is capable of achieving flight by manipulating anti-gravitons.
- Immortality: Due to an unknown accident that happened to him, Immortal cannot age. Immortal has lived for thousands of years and is still in his physical prime. As long as his torso and head aren’t separated from his body, he is alive. He has even survived having his heart punctured, revealing that he doesn’t need his heart to have consciousness.
- Resurrection: Immortal can be resurrected if his head or torso is reattached to his body, therefore making him impossible to truly kill. Immortal has been resurrected from being decapitated by simply reattaching his head. He has been resurrected from being cut in half. He has been resurrected from being blown up by a bomb capable of burning superhuman skin.
- Invulnerability: The Immortal’s skin is much harder to pierce than human skin. Only beings of similar or greater strength can actually hurt or seriously injure him. One being Omni-Man who impaled him and bisected him.
- Superhuman Endurance: Immortal can withstand damage that would normally kill an average human.
- Superhuman Strength: Immortal has strength much greater than humans. Immortal has thrown Bi-Plane from the sky into space.
- Superhuman Speed
- Interstellar Travel: The Immortal can survive in outer space without aid.
- Regeneration: The Immortal is able to regenerate lost tissue within days.
Like I said: it’s a long list.
The Immortal may not be Omni-Man, but he sure as hell is powerful.
For this one we’re going to be zoning in on his superhuman strength, endurance and speed.
No, I won’t be teaching you how to fly.
We’re going to be hitting heavy weight training which will help us with the superhuman strength and speed and then we’ll also throw in some long distance endurance training as well as a little HIIT to work on our intensity and short burst stamina as well.
Think you can handle it?
