One Punch Man

100x Suburi Challenge

10 Day Aikido Challenge

How an Anime character can be your secret weapon in getting in Aikido shape

One Punch Man (ワンパンマン) is a Japanese anime comic book character created in 2009.

But if you’re thinking of the cute anime characters with huge eyes and a wistful gaze, this ain’t that.

No, this is One Punch Man.

His story: he’s so strong that he can defeat any opponent with one punch.

But how did he become One Punch Man? His quest for becoming the best superhero of all time started out with his “special 100×100 workout.” So simple. So effective.

Just do 100 squats, 100 push ups, and 100 sit ups. And go for a 10K run. Every single day.

Saitama only had one rule: don’t skip breakfast, even if you were just eating a banana.

But the most important thing: he never used the A/C in summer or the heat in the winter. This helped strengthen his mind as he strengthened his body.

As we leap into the new year, why not turbocharge our Aikido mojo with some superhero flair? Enter the Kiryu Virtual Dojo’s One Punch Man (100x) Suburi Challenge, where every skill level can transform ordinary into extraordinary! Get ready to channel your inner Saitama – minus the baldness (we hope)! It’s not just about packing a punch; it’s about striking a balance between laughter and prowess.

So, suit up (cape optional), power up your ‘serious series’ focus, and let’s make every move count. After all, in our virtual dojo, every day is an episode worth watching!

Embrace the 100x Suburi Challenge and kickstart a journey of growth, momentum, and self-discipline. As you accept this challenge, you’re not just committing to a physical endeavor; you’re also pledging to a path of self-accountability.
