Goku Gravity Room Training Plan: Dragon Ball Z Kettlebell Workout
This is a tribute to Toriyama-Sensei and the first segment of the Kettlebell workout series.
Adding Goku, the face of anime, to the mix of training plans we bring to this series makes sense! We can all agree - he embodies the ideal physique and performance most of us bros would want to achieve.
For a full weekly workout, we already made a plan that you can check out here: The Goku Training Plan.
Since we already went through the training principles and Goku's physique stats, we won't need that for today!
Later, I'll share some other workouts that you can use along with this one just to reap all the benefits of training!
How the workouts are made
These workout routines will strictly be a kettlebell and bodyweight mix, used to set you up for the ultimate home/park/gymless workout! We discuss the benefits further in the article on Kettlebells and Calisthenics.
Every bell and bodyweight training plan consists of 4-5 workouts per training week, tailored to be as accurate as possible to the character's performance and overall abilities.
Here are some Anime Workout Plans we’ve covered at Action Hero Athletics:
Without further ado, let’s get into some training!
