Prince of Tennis- Kaidoh's Training

In Prince of Tennis, Kaidoh is a bit of an ill-tempered member of Seigaku's Tennis Club, but he's got serious skills and determination to match. His training schedule is shown to some first year students to show them the level of stamina necessary to compete in tennis, especially at an all-day tournament. Especially since the longest match in the history of tennis took 11 hours and 5 minutes over the course of three days. Talk about endurance! Kaidoh is aware of the need for endurance in tennis and his training reflects that.


Kaidoh's Training


Morning
-Run 10k (approx 6.2 miles)


Afternoon (4-6 hours later)
-Tennis Practice
-Run 10k
-3 x 50 Reps Back and Forth Shifts
-1500 Racket Swings


Evening (3-4 hours later)
-Run 10k


Notes:

• This is obviously a lot of running, so you'll need to work your way up to it. The manga said jog 10k, but I guess that just means a steady pace, honestly. This is a workout you'd be committing pretty much the whole of your day to accomplish, so be prepared. Maybe use the morning run as a way to loosen up, the afternoon run as a way to push yourself, and perhaps take it easy on the evening run, kind of using it as a recovery run. 
• For "Tennis Practice" you can just play tennis if you like, but you could also practice hitting the tennis ball against a wall, practice serving the ball, or just play around with bouncing the tennis ball on the racket. In general, you just want to get comfortable handling the ball, if you are not already a tennis player. If you already play tennis, just go ahead and practice like normal. 
• Back and Forth Shifts are simply standing with your feet a little wider than shoulder-width, knees slightly bent, maybe even a racket in your hands, and being poised to move either left or right. One rep is pushing off with one foot and shifting slightly in the opposite direction and then doing the same thing on the other side to get back in the original position. 
• 1500 Racket Swings is obviously a lot, so I understand if you have to work up to it. You can practice your fore swing or back swing or over head swing or whichever swing you'd like. You can do it on both sides if you want, but do no more than 1500 total swings, whichever ones you choose. You don't need to only do one type of swing per your training session, so have fun practicing any of the swings you know. 
• If you are thinking of using this workout to supplement your tennis training, please don't do this every day, because if you aren't use to it, you're likely to overtrain or injure yourself, which is not a road you want to go down. 

Hope you guys enjoyed this Prince of Tennis workout! I like to throw these workouts from sports anime in from time to time just for fun. :D

That's all for today! Until next time, good luck and train hard!

Handstands Practice: Conan is also good at walking on his hands and even running on them for 30 minutes a day practice your handstands this will give you a strong upperbody and improve your circulatory system

Exceptional Toe strength: One thing that separates conan from many other anime characters is his stronger than average toes He can even hang off a ledge with them and hang on to a flying plain Of course know one is expecting you to get that strong but it does make since to train them as much as possible.(Sorry steve don`t really know how to train toes but if you can please add some

Running: Conan loves to run and race and has actually gotten pretty good at it i know alot of workouts have running but its always good to have a cardio workout in your routine so run everyday until you can`t run anymore as long is its cardio


Above-average strength:Again!!know one is telling you to be superman but conan is strong enough to the point where he can carry a full grown shark and survive a 100 ft fall So whenever you can whether its a baby back ride or pulling train with your balls get out there and get strong If you lift weights that would be perfect

Hajime no Ippo Training Program (Part 3)

Continuing from Part 2. Remember to read the notes under each section.

Transition(a): Rest One Week
Transition(b): 3 Mile Run and 5 x 3 Minute Rounds Shadowboxing and 4 Sets of MAX Push-ups on MWF (Two Weeks)




Phase 9: The All-Japan Rookie King Workout  (Two Months)
-This workout is 3 times a week.
-On two of your off days, run 3 miles at an easy pace and shadowbox 10 x 3 minute rounds.
-Continuing with this workout, because there weren't really any updates in the manga for a couple months after Ippo beat Keigo.


Transition: 3 Mile Run, 5 x 3 Minute Rounds Shadowboxing and 3 Sets of MAX Push-ups and Sit-ups on MWF (Two Weeks)




Phase 10: Class A Tournament- First Round Workout (One Month)
-This workout is 3 times a week.
-On two of your off days, run 3 miles at an easy pace and shadowbox 10 x 3 minute rounds.
-This workout may seem a little slack after the previous Rookie King workout, but we'll build up to more and more shortly. Ippo was coming off his easier schedule when his mother was sick, so he didn't have much time to prepare for this fight.


Transition: Rest One Week




Phase 11: Class A Tournament- The Finals (Three Months)
-This workout is 3 times a week.
-On two of your off days, run 3 miles at an easy pace, shadowbox 10 x 3 minute rounds and practice your One Arm Push-up. Really take it easy on the run, because the other days will be hell on your legs.


Transition: Rest Two Weeks




Phase 12: Facing the Champ Workout  (Two Months)
-This workout is 3 times a week.
-On two of your off days, run 3 miles at an easy pace, shadowbox 10 x 3 minute rounds and practice your One Arm Push-up. Once again, take it easy on the run during your off days.


Transition: Rest One Week




Phase 13: Ippo's Recovery Time (One Month)
-This workout is 3 times a week for the first two weeks and 5 times a week for the second two weeks.
-Because you are probably not taking the beating that Ippo took in all his fights, I'm not going to recommend that you take three whole months off. However, because the training up until now has been consistent and increasingly difficult, I'm going to recommend this time period as a time to rest and recuperate your body from the hell you've put it through.


Transition: Rest One Week 




Phase 14: Ippo's Comeback Workout (Two Months) 
-This workout is 3 times a week.
-On two of your off days, run 3 miles at an easy pace, shadowbox 10 x 3 minute rounds and practice your One Arm Push-up.


Transition(a): Rest One Week
Transition(b): Ippo's Mountain Training Camp (One Week)
-This workout is every day for 6 days.
Transition(c): Rest One Week 




Phase 15: Ippo Versus Sendo (Redux)-- (Four Months)
-This workout is 3 times a week.
-On two of your off days, run 3 miles at an easy pace and shadowbox 10 x 3 minute rounds.
-This is going to take some getting used to, especially, since you're just coming off a three month period of easier activity, but they good thing is that your body is probably nicely recovered and will easily adapt to the work load after the first week or two. That's the benefit of having built the base with all the previous months of training.

Transition: Rest Two Weeks
-Ippo rested a little longer than this, because of the sheer amount of damage he received in the Sendo fight, but two weeks should be good for 16 weeks of training without a fight at the end of it.

----------------------------------------------

And this finishes out the first part of the anime. Next, we start Ippo's reign as the Japanese Champion!!  Here's where the training really starts to get tough, but after over three years of training under your belt, I'm sure you'll be able to handle it!

Daily Training

Pull-ups: 3, 4, 6, 3, 5
Shadowboxing: 5 x 5 Minute Rounds
400 Meter Run

Shadowboxing today was an emphasis on footwork, lead-limb striking, and takedown defense. Experimenting with lots of different kinds of footwork from various sources. I've been playing with a couple of exercise apps from the Android Market. When I complete the programs from them, I'll let you know how they are.

Daily Training 02/16/12

Going to try to start doing these again for you guys!

I've done a bunch of push-ups, squats, and sit-ups this week. Pushed a sled yesterday, so that was fun! Also, did a nice little CrossFit variant with a kettlebell, some push-ups, and a one-two-front kick combo. Here's what I did today, though. Didn't have too much time, but I tired to make the best of it with higher intensity. This is the lightest day I've had this week.
