Vegeta Workout Routine: Train like a Saiyan Prince (2024)

Last updated on December 26th, 2021 at 11:42 am

Who trains harder?…

Goku or Vegeta?

You don’t have to actually answer that. They both train pretty damn hard, and their routines are going to be pretty damn similar because of that.

We also saw Caulifla because we’re on a DBZ kick this week. And, I’ll tell you this: the next female from DBZ will be similar to how Goku and Vegeta are our male Saiyans.

Goku is to Vegeta as Caulifla is to…

Uh, I don’t know. It makes sense to me…

Vegeta Stats:

Height:5’3

Weight:160-180 lbs

Real Name:Vegeta

Powers:Yes

Vegeta is super short.

He’d be considered in the shorter range among celebs we’ve seen on SHJ.

He actually joins Wolverinefor the shortest spot among comic characters we’ve seen at 5’3, but Damian Wayne is only an inch taller. Goku isn’t that tall either, though, standing only 5’7.

One Punch Manfalls in at 5’9 – withSpider-Man,Daredevil, andGreen Arrowcoming in around 5’11 andBeastjoining them.

Just above them areAquamanandPunisherstanding only an inch or so taller.

We’ve hadSupermanat 6’3, andCaptain America,ScorpionandBatmanat 6’2, withThorandCyborgtowering over them at 6’6,Thanosright there with them at 6’7, andDeathstrokeright below at 6’5.

And, of course,Hulkis up there with Thor, Kratos, Thanos and Cyborg, and sometimes even portrayed much taller.

Yeah, that meansAll Mightis the tallest at 7’2, only sometimes surpassed by The Hulk!

But, don’t worry if you’re not the same height or weight range.

We write these routines to be utilized by anyone and everyone.

Vegeta Diet and Nutrition

**Keep in mind: this section will be nearly identical for each hero, unless I mentioned differently (for example someone like The Hulk may get something specifically different**

Every hero needs to still have a good diet.

Unfortunately we can train like them, but I don’t think any of us are suddenly getting their powers, or the ability to magically stop caring about nutrition.

You can’t out train your diet, so I want to still give some pillars for nutrition.

You can start by checking outThe Nutrition Pillarson the site, but I’ll break down some more information for you guys as well.

Guys like Hugh Jackman and Terry Crews utilizeintermittent fastingdaily, and I also use it myself in conjunction withcyclical ketosis.

That being said, I also recommend tracking and paying attention toprotein intake.

BUT, there are a thousand different ways to reach your goals, so finding the most sustainable way is what’s important.

Which is why ourAcademyutilizes multiple different Nutrition Classes (Greek Gods, Vikings, Spartans, Hunter Gatherers, Monks, Samurais, Minimalists, Superhumans) to allow people to choose what is right for YOU!

Oh, and if you’re down withcalorie countinginstead, that’s always an option as well. It’s just important tobe awareof specific rules and precision while counting.

Vegeta Workout Routine Research

Time for “the fun part”.

I say it every time, get over it!

This is the part where I get to break down the characters, in this case Vegeta’s, abilities and powers so that we know why and how we’re going to be making the routine the way we are.

So we don’t really need to go into background story for Vegeta, but it is important to know he is a Saiyan from Planet Vegeta. The Prince of Saiyan’s to be more precise, actually. Hence why he is capable of becoming Super Saiyan (aka, he’s not human).

But, let’s discuss some of his other powers and abilities (and, like Goku, the list is pretty long, but awesome):

• Superhuman Strength: As a Saiyan, Vegeta possesses immense physical strength, far more advanced than that of any human being, and most alien races. He is strong enough to effortlessly break all Earthling-made materials or weapons, move in increased gravity without any discomfort, and even lift a suit capable of sinking through a planet. Although, in a comical scene of theDragon Ball Supermanga, even as a Super Saiyan he is not strong enough to even make the one thousand ton Magetta move.
• Superhuman Speed: As an extremely experienced and trained Saiyan warrior, Vegeta can move and fly at hypersonic speeds, enabling him the ability to travel great distances in short periods of time, or move at “untrackable” speeds while in combat.
• Superhuman Durability:As a highly trained Saiyan, Vegeta’s body is far more durable than that of normal human beings, being essentially invulnerable to all Earthling-made weapons. However, while naturally durable thanks to his Saiyan physiology, he does have limits, as other powerful beings as himself can hurt, and potentially kill him, if he does not defend himself correctly, and when purposely lowering his guard and ki to protect him, even an energy wave from Krillin, a being far weaker than himself, was capable of leaving him near death, though it did require two attempts from the later, with Vegeta claiming his first try was useless.
• Superhuman Senses: Vegeta is able to think and react at extremely high speeds, easily able to dodge or catch projectiles fired from weapons, or even keep up with incredible combat speeds from his opponents. As a Saiyan, Vegeta also has enhanced senses of smell, taste and sight, which further increase his combat senses and instincts.

And, I like the way his Wiki gave us all things that we’re able to train for in this specific list.

SHJ is all about unleashing your inner superhero and becoming a SuperHuman after all….

If you’d like the full list of abilities and powers (including stuff like flight, teleportation, etc), you can always check out Goku’s workout research as well.

But, I’ll keep it to a minimum here so we can get into the routine.

Let’s do it.
