1. 0:00exactly how I would do it. Welcome back
2. 0:01to Anime Physique Files, where I break
3. 0:03down your favorite anime characters and
4. 0:04show you how I train to build their
5. 0:05physique in real life. When I look at
6. 0:06Toji, I see a thick back, broad
7. 0:08shoulders, muscular arms, a strong
8. 0:10chest, powerful legs, and a seriously
9. 0:13developed core. But more than anything,
10. 0:14Toji looks dense. So, if I was training
11. 0:16to get that Toji inspired physique, I
12. 0:18wouldn't just focus on getting bigger. I
13. 0:19train to build strength, power, speed,
14. 0:21and athleticism that actually makes
15. 0:22sense for how he fights. I'd actually
16. 0:24have him training 5 days a week. Day one
17. 0:25is going to be our heavy strength day.
18. 0:27We're prioritizing squats, presses,
19. 0:29rows, and heavy carries because we need
20. 0:30to build that foundation of raw
21. 0:32strength. Day two, we're shifting our
22. 0:33focus to back and arms. We're
23. 0:34prioritizing pull-ups, rows, pull downs,
24. 0:37curls, and triceps because Toji's back
25. 0:39and arms are doing some serious heavy
26. 0:41lifting visually. Day three is going to
27. 0:43be our lower body and power day. We're
28. 0:45bringing in hinges, unilateral work,
29. 0:47jumps, and explosive movement because
30. 0:48Toji isn't just strong, he's
31. 0:50ridiculously fast. Day four is our
32. 0:52shoulders, chest, and cording. We're
33. 0:54building those broad shoulders, upper
34. 0:55body thickness, and core strength that
35. 0:57ties everything together. Day five is
36. 0:59going to be full body athletic
37. 1:00conditioning. This is where we're
38. 1:01bringing in sprints, carries, body
39. 1:03weight work, and explosive movements
40. 1:04because we're not building a physique
41. 1:06that only looks strong. And we're going
42. 1:07to throw in a character specific
43. 1:08challenge. And for Togei, that's going
44. 1:09to be weighted pull-ups because if you
45. 1:11want that back and upper body
46. 1:12development, eventually weighted
47. 1:14pull-ups are going to have to become too
48. 1:15easy. Obviously, you're not going to
49. 1:16unlock heavenly restriction and wake up
50. 1:18with Togei's physical abilities. for the
51. 1:20qualities behind Toji's physique,
52. 1:21strength, muscle, power, and
53. 1:23athleticism, those are absolutely
54. 1:25trainable.
