Chigiri is the next up among our Blue Lock characters and he’s pushing us over the edge.
We were originally going to be strictly hosting our Blue Lock characters inside our Sports Themed Anime Inspired Workouts, but now we have more than enough to warrant their own section entirely.
Which is why we’re bringing in our all new Blue Lock Inspired Workouts mini-database!
Chigiri also comes in as this week’s top picks not for being the most popular among requests, but also for another reason.
We actually just put up our list of the Top Ten Best Blue Lock Players, and Chigiri made it!
Hyoma Chigiri Stats:
Real Name: Hyoma Chigiri
Height: 5’8
Weight: N/A
Anime/Manga: Blue Lock
Powers: No
Technically Hyoma is above average among male anime characters, but he’s actually pretty short if we compare him to Blue Lock characters we’ve seen thus far.
Although none of our Blue Lock players have even come close to being considered a behemoth within our Anime Workouts Database.
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.

Hyoma Chigiri 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.

Hyoma Chigiri 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 Hyoga Chigiri we’ll be pulling right from his Wiki Fandom page which leads us off with this:
Hyoma Chigiri is a contender of Blue Lock, who currently plays as a leftwing for England’s Manshine City during the Neo Egoist League.
Chigiri is a forward prodigy who was chained down by a leg injury in his past but he let go of his fears while at Blue Lock so he could continue playing football wholeheartedly. When first arriving at Blue Lock, Chigiri was member of Team Z. Chigiri spent half of the First Selection avoiding participation or keeping it to a bare minimum but when he was motivated by Isagi in Team Z’s third game, he decided to let go of his fear and play football to become the world’s best striker like his rivals.
This doesn’t give us a ton to work with, but as always, just knowing that a player is part of Blue Lock is enough to tell us how skilled they are, not only in soccer, but also in overall athleticism.
If we move down into his abilities we can start by learning about his player archetype: Counterattacker.
Here’s how they break it down for us:
Counterattacker: Counterattackers are any attacking player that uses their pace to beat defenders and cause unexpected scoring opportunities at any time. They also need some degree of shooting skill. Counterattacking opportunities occur when the opposition are themselves attacking a team with most of their players forward. A counterattack happens when the ball is won back and is quickly played into space for a counterattacking player to run onto or where a player takes the ball themselves and runs with pace into a sparsely defended opposition half.
I like sharing the archetypes as well because sometimes they do help if a character is overpowering, but it also gives the character’s the background lore that they deserve while we break down their abiltities.
Moving a bit deeper they also tell us a bit more about his overall abilities:
Chigiri’s natural physical disposition allows him to run at incredible speeds compared to most players and along with his great focus he is able to keep control of the ball and his speed while moving through tight spaces, between players, and switching between dribbling and passing seamlessly. After training with Manshine City, Chigiri more carefully decides where he is going to cut and run as Chigiri now aims for his ideal shooting zone using his refined speed and dribbling instead of blindly into the penalty area as fast as possible.
Chigiri is a speedster!
Of course getting stronger is going to help us with speed, so this will still be a calisthenics workout, but we will also be focusing on endurance work, sprints, high intensity training and becoming lean.
That means the goals for our Hyoma Chigiri Workout are as follows:
- Chigiri’s Incredible Speed
- Chigiri’s Lean and Toned Physique
- Chigiri’s Overall Endurance
This one will increase in intensity a bit when we hit our sprints and circuits so you can scale those down if needed, or you can even start off by tackling our Beginner Speedster Workout or Beginner Ninja Workout, which are both calisthenics based.
If you want to start off with some weights instead we also have our Beginner Behemoth Workout you can jump into.
Check out all The SHJ Programs and start unleashing your inner SuperHuman.
Hyoma Chigiri Workout Routine
Training Volume:
5 days per week
For this one we’re still going to be having some calisthenics training, but for the most part we’ll be focusing in on endurance work that will build up to longer runs and speedier (quicker) times. For this we’ll used some distance runs, timed runs, and circuits to get a full speedster regime.
Want To Upgrade This Workout?
The Superhero Academy now comes with an Upgrade Your Workout Tool that allows Academy members to turn any SHJ workout into a 4-8 week fully planned regime detailing exact weights to lift and including reverse & traditional pyramid training, straight sets, super sets, progressive overload and more.

Hyoma Chigiri Workout: Long Distance Run Day
Complete the Following Distances FOR TIME!
(Measure Your Time and Complete it For Speed, Looking to Improve Over Time)
Beginner: 3 Mile Run
Intermediate: 5 Mile Run
Advanced: 7-10+ Mile Run
Note that while these distances might seem daunting, it is okay to start by running and walking on and off to work your way up to a better score.
Break, run, break, run, and then the next time go out there and break a bit less! 🙂
Hyoma Chigiri Workout: Full Recovery Run Day
Complete the Following at Easy to Moderate Pace:
Beginner: 15 Minute Run/Walk/Jog
Intermediate: 20-30 Minute Run/Walk/Jog
Advanced: 30-60 Minute Run/Walk/Jog
Your recovery run revolves around getting out there and moving for the time listed.
You may be able to get out for a walk/run for 30-60 minutes as a beginner/intermediate if you plan on walking/speed walking for the majority of the duration to allow for more recovery – so keep in mind the time listed is more time spent RUNNING.
That being said: while it’s okay to walk/speed walk, if you plan on doing it for the majority of the duration you should increase the time to 30-60 minutes at a minimum.
Short Circuit: Complete 3 Rounds

- Walk 60 Seconds at 2-3 MPH (-60% Effort)
- Repeat for a Total of 30 Minutes
- Cooldown Incline Walk for 10-15 Minutes
Side Note: A good way to measure your improvement over time during your speed circuit is to pay attention to what speed your capable of performing your sprints at and which speed your comfortable with your walks at. Another great thing to do is measure your heart rate directly after your sprint and directly before the next sprint to see how quickly you recover and then compare that to future circuits.

Complete Each Movement for 30 Seconds
Side Plank Right
Sit Ups
Hollow Hold

Hyoma Chigiri Workout: Short Distance Run [For Time] and Short Circuit
Complete the Following FOR TIME! 🙂
Beginner: 1.5 Miles
Intermediate: 3 Miles
Advanced: 3-5 Miles
Similar to your long distance run training you should be looking to improve on this run each week, but also take it a bit easier than your timed distance run and don’t be afraid to scale it as needed going into the circuit – especially if you’re choosing one with running.
Short Circuit: Complete 1-2 Rounds
(Academy members add on a Benchmark Hero Workout or SHJ Core Benchmark Test)
50 Planking Shoulder Taps
40 Push Ups
30 Second L-Sit Hold

Hyoma Chigiri Workout: Mandatory Rest Day Note
Your schedule does not need to adhere to this exact daily structure BUT you should have a rest day prior to your distance run day each week, as this will be an extremely important marker for your improvement and how well you are completing it over time! 🙂
Rest days are mandatory, BUT it’s okay to get active as long as you’re allowing your body to recover.
