The Baki workout is here!
Baki Hanma easily takes the cake as one of my favorite anime characters of all time — and he’s the new age figure of anime training.
Despite his genetic material being top 0.01%, he still had to go through brutal training to survive in the underground world. The best part? He broke his limits and got stronger when he ditched the machines and focused primarily on bodyweight mastery.
In this segment of the Anime Training Series, we will break down the workout that is going to help you build a physique and develop performance levels similar to Baki — and it’s all done with good old-fashioned calisthenics.

Training Principles
Visualization: This is what makes Baki one of the greatest mixed martial artists in anime. Visualization means adapting quickly and simulating fight scenarios that push your body past its limits.
Picture yourself bench pressing the earth during push-ups. Pull your bodyweight like your life depends on it during chin-ups. Baki did this constantly — through running, shadowboxing, and raw calisthenics — to test his body and sharpen his mind.
Extreme Strength and Speed: Baki’s striking is lightning fast and brutally efficient. His power doesn’t just come from size — it comes from explosive control.
To train like him, you’ll need to focus on exercises that build speed and force: explosive push-ups, box jumps, tuck jump burpees, and sprint intervals. Every rep should feel like a strike — fast, clean, and lethal.
Martial Artist Endurance: Baki can run for miles, fight for hours, and still keep going. That kind of endurance isn’t built by accident. Cardio is a crucial part of this program — not just for stamina, but for fight-readiness.
You’ll be running, jumping rope, and shadowboxing to build lungs that can handle chaos and legs that never quit.
