Could You Achieve Haki in Real Life?

Fandom

We currently don't have any One Piece workouts available, but we will soon! Stay tuned to our Anime Workouts and we will bring them to you!

In One Piece, Haki is a power in the form of both physical and spiritual, allowing individuals to hold power that lies beyond physical feats.

Now as a fellow nerd, trainer, and mega fan of One Piece - I had to dive into the topic of achieving Haki in real life, in all three forms - Armament, Conquerors, and Observation Haki!

That's exactly what we're going to do. So if you ever wondered how you can harness power like your favorite characters in real life, you've come to the right place! We will dive into the different types of Haki and how you can train to achieve this level of power in real life! Let's get into it.

Observation Haki

Observation Haki, also known as Kenbunshoku Haki is labeled as a sixth sense that gives someone the ability to predict attacks, enhance reflexes, and can even sense the presence of others.

To translate Observation Haki, we must understand the core principles of this power - senses and focus. These two core foundations are skills that can be achieved through agility training and proprioception enhancement training.

Agility Training

This plays a role in enhancing your physical awareness and focus, resulting in a direct effect on footwork, speed, endurance, spatial awareness, and coordination.

There are plenty of ways you can train focusing on agility. This can be done through ladder drills, skipping rope, explosive exercises, and lateral/standard sprints!

Proprioception Enhancement Training

Now, this is where it gets interesting. Proprioception is the principle of mind and muscle connection. When you train to enhance proprioception, this means that you are working on your body control and muscle focus. For example, try training blindfolded and discover the muscles you are using, versus training without a blindfold on. You are required to focus on the muscles involved in the movement rather than just the movement alone.

I personally like to consider proprioception as a sixth sense since it isn't achieved by just anyone. There are about 600 muscles in the human body which makes the ceiling very high for those who want to increase their muscle focus!

These two modalities are based on the same core principles, focus and control. Combine these training areas to make the ultimate observation Haki training plan!

Armament Haki

Armament Haki, also known as Busoshoku Haki, can become a shield with formidable strength. In One Piece, users of armament Haki can harden their bodies to withstand attacks and overall raise their general strength and power output levels.

Combining both Resistance and Martial Arts Training

Strength training and Martial Arts are the cornerstones of what it would take to achieve armament haki. We've actually discussed this topic in the strength training for martial arts article.

There are two forms of strength training you can apply to achieve this feat.

First, there's functional strength which focuses on proper use of the muscles along with the added benefit of injury prevention.

Then there is a strength and performance-based training approach that focuses on power output and stability. Combine that with proper martial arts training and you would pretty much be set to being the ultimate armament haki user!

Conqueror's Haki

Conqueror's haki is the rarest form of haki in the One Piece series. With that being said, it also can't be physically achieved.

While Action Hero Athletics is known for the workouts, how can we possibly achieve something like Conqueror's Haki in real life?

Simple - mental fortitude and resilience.

In real life, unlocking this feat requires a great level of leadership and grit that can only come from adversity, which can be found in training.

Think of where you are at in your journey now, and imagine where you can be in 6-12 months if you stick to your plan and decide to go further in your progress. Not only would you be a conqueror of hardship, but you would become the 1% of the general population, obtaining discipline, consistency, and maximum effort.

Closing thoughts

The entire process has involved a deep examination of the types of Haki and how they can facilitate the example of real-world training with the Observation, Armament, and Conqueror forms.

For those who are just beginning, I challenge you to tune into the Action Hero Athletics workout series, where you can train like your favorite Anime characters, Fictional characters, and Superheroes in real life!

As always, thank you for all who tune in to the blog articles!
