We recently took a look at the most muscular Seven Deadly Sins characters recently on the SHJ YouTube Channel and it quickly made me realize that Drole needed to be added to our Seven Deadly Sins Workout Database as soon as possible.
So here we are to amend the fact that he hasn’t got his spot yet.
I want to make it clear that we’re obviously not training to get the same amount of mass as a giant that is nearly 85 feet tall and 6500 pounds, but we will be looking to get massive and strong.
Which means you need to be ready to lift some heavy weight for this one.
Drole Stats:
Real Name: Drole
Height: 84’8
Weight: 6504 lbs.
Anime: Seven Deadly Sins
Powers: Yes
It’s pretty obvious that Drole is considered a behemoth among our Anime Workouts Database considering he is coming in as the largest we’ve ever seen.
That said, we have seen other giants, especially from Seven Deadly Sins.
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.

Drole 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.

Drole 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 Drole we’ll be pulling right from his Wiki Fandom page starting with his brief bio section here:
Drole, also known to humans as Balor, is recognized as the founder of the Giant Clan, their former King and a god by some, according to the clan’s legends. He later defected to be an elite warrior of the Demon Clan, serving directly under the Demon King as the Patience of the Ten Commandments, but ultimately left and returned to affiliate with his previous clan.
From there we can go ahead and skip his appearance section considering it’s pretty obvious to tell what we’re working with here.
He’s an 85 foot giant who is shredded with massive muscles…
That brings us directly into what they tell us about his abilities and equipment, which is a pretty big breakdown:
As a member of the Ten Commandments and a legendary warrior of the Giant Clan, Drole is extremely powerful. After receiving a Commandment from the Demon King, Drole obtained powers related to the Demon Clan, like their unique power of darkness, similar to Meliodas’ at Vaizel. He is capable of utilizing this dark power to form helicopter-shaped wings for flight. His aura, combined with the aura of the other Ten Commandments is so terrifying that it made the normally calm Hendrickson sweat in fear by their presence and unnerved Meliodas when he sensed it several kilometers away. Matrona, upon first encountering his labyrinth could sense his power in the center, miles away, and noted how extraordinary it is. Furthermore, Drole with Gloxinia help is also powerful enough to go toe-toe with Chandler the highest-ranked Demon when he is using his full power and hold their own against him for a short amount of time.
Owing to his great size and physical strength, Drole has an incredible physical constitution and endurance, being able to get up and begin fighting Meliodas almost immediately after taking a massive attack from Escanor head on, which was capable of destroying the giant boulder that crushed Vaizel, and threw him through his own labyrinth. He is able to endure attacks from Meliodas with his Demon Mark activated and showing no outward reaction from having his arms cut off or standing completely unfazed while allowing Diane to land multiple direct attacks all over his body with Gideon.
Being the largest giant so far in the series along with being their former king, Drole possesses the greatest amount of physical strength of giants being able to send Diane, another giant, flying away a considerable distance with just the heel of his palm even when she increased her weight with Heavy Metal. He was also able to easily incapacitate her with just one of his palm strikes when her Heavy Metal was dissipated by him which is considerable as she was able to remain conscious and continue fighting even when wounded by multiple Great Holy Knight level opponents before.
Despite his enormous size, Drole also has great speed and agility as he was able to effortlessly dodge Diane’s Crazy Rush all the while performing his sacred dance that dissipated her magic.
We knew going in that we were dealing with an extremely powerful character and they gave us a breakdown on how strong he is (which we also knew ahead of time), but I’m also happy that they mentioned his speed and agility as well.
That will help us make this extremely well rounded.
That means the goals for our Drole Inspired Workout are:
- Drole’s Enormous Muscular Physique and Mass
- Drole’s Incredible Physical Strength
- Drole’s Great Speed and Agility
The fun part of these goals is that they all work hand in hand with each other and are super accomplishable with our weight training.
That said, this one will definitely include a decent amount of volume, and I’ll also be throwing in some intensity as well considering the power level of Drole.
With that, if it seems a bit too difficult for you to jump right into I would recommend either scaling or starting with our Beginner Behemoth Workout or even one of our other Beginner Workouts.

Drole Workout Routine
Training Volume:
6 days per week
Explanation:
We’re going to be training six days a week with heavy lifting and high volume. If you see the rep scheme going low to high that indicates RPT, where-as high to low indicates traditional pyramid and straight through with the same rep scheme throughout indicates straight sets. You can read more about pyramid training here. You can also swap to 3 sets each set if you want to cut the volume down a bit, and this will still be a super effective routine.
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.
