It’s been a long time coming and we have a super large Tokyo Revengers Inspired Workouts Database, but Hakkai Shiba is finally making it in.
And, before we get too far into this, I do want to confirm the fact that this one will be build around calisthenics training for all our bodyweight members in The SHJ Army.
Hakkai Shiba is not only one of the most popular Tokyo Revengers characters, but he’s also one of the strongest Tokyo Revengers characters as well – so it was only a matter of time until he got his slot here among our characters.
We’ll have our work cut out for us, but I’ll also make sure to let almost all of our members be able to jump right in and take on the Shiba workout.
Hakkai Shiba Stats:
Real Name: Hakkai Shiba
Height: 6’4
Weight: 172 lbs.
Anime: Tokyo Revengers
Powers: No
Hakkai Shiba is actually extremely tall, to the point where I’d almost consider him to be a behemoth among our Anime Workouts Database (although he’s technically two inches off what we’d normally consider).
That said, either way our average height among male anime characters continues to slowly trickle up.
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.

Hakkai Shiba 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.

Hakkai Shiba 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 Hakkai Shiba I’ll be pulling right from his Wiki Fandom page starting with a brief bio section they give us here:
Hakkai Shiba is the Second Division Vice-Captain of the Tokyo Manji Gang. He is the younger brother of Taiju and Yuzuha Shiba.
From there we can talk a little about his appearance as well considering that is something we’ll need to be revolving this one around.
His Fandom page talks mainly about his hairstyle, clothing choices, and the fact that he is tall – but I also want to focus in on the fact that his is very slim while being toned.
That will be one of the main focuses of the workout. We want to get a super slim physique while being strong, quick and toned.
When we move further into his Fandom page we can learn a bit about his Skills and Authority, which is what will be taking place for what we’d normally see as “Powers and Abilities”.
Here’s how they break it down:
Authority: Hakkai is Toman’s Second Division Vice-Captain, giving him command over the division’s members.
Fighting Prowess:He is the second strongest in the Second Division and can take down the average delinquent with one punch. Though weaker than his older brother, Taiju, he is a capable fighter. Hakkai has also shown to be strong enough to land a chi punch to his brother’s face.
I’m adding the authority section in here as well just to make sure we give Shiba the credit he deserves, but what we really will be focusing on is his fighting prowess.
The fact that he is a strong as he is while being as slim as he is shows that we will have to make strength a big factor in this one, while also burning enough calories to keep up our fighting stamina and shredded physique.
That means the goals for our Hakkai Shiba Inspired Workout are:
- Hakkai Shiba’s Slim and Toned Aesthetic
- Hakkai Shiba’s Overwhelming Strength
- Hakkai Shiba’s Speed and Fighter Endurance
This one is actually going to be perfect for a bit of a hybrid build, but not one that we’re used to seeing.
We sometimes create a hybrid build of weights and calisthenics, but for this one we’re going to be making a hybrid build that is calisthenics, endurance and intensity.
This will be most similar to a scaled up version of our Beginner Speedster Workout, which is also the best of the Beginner Workouts to start with if you’re looking to scale this one down a bit and level up to it.

Hakkai Shiba Workout Routine
Training Volume:
3-6 days per week
Explanation:
As I mentioned above we’re going to be using the format that is a hybrid of calisthenics, endurance and intensity for this one but I’m switching it up so that it is entirely built around getting that Hakkai Shiba strength as well! You’ll have 3 days of calisthenics with some intensity strength or endurance work to finish off your day as well as a long distance run and a Second Division Vice Captain Circuit Test that you can complete weekly, biweekly or monthly.
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.

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.
