I saw one of the girls put on boxing gloves in the OP. I hope there's a boxing episode, then.

You don't look like that with that measures, and you don't weigh that with those curves.

I have a few inquires about some things... but I guess is fine.
I like to post in manga forum when I feel it is worth it, so people will think. "Shit, is her again" or something.

People asked me where I read certain thing but the rules say no telling where did you read so maybe I am too boring for not saying? Or salty because you didn't check my profile that says don't ask because I hate people to ghost me after that. I love learning languages so maybe I did not read the manga in English.

Hilarious and "Educating", thats what i think haha.

catchy OP and ED, good portion of comedy and the "educational purpose" plus slightly ecchiness XD.
the explanation of the actual workout lesson/advice were so good, i liked this combinational breakthrough, welcome Hibiki, Akemi, and Machi. can't wait to see another character to join the GYM !!

It's not bad at the beginning, the main character is nice and at times I even laughed, like when the character of Machio showed his muscles. I don't expect much from the plot, the anime has a very different purpose. The drawings and animations are really good in quality.
This I would have said the first time I saw this anime series, but since I saw it all, I correct myself for having doubted the goodness of the story, in fact it turns out to be really good until the end. While I don't change my opinion on the technical quality of the anime series: very good and with a very catchy opening and ending, especially the opening, which I really like.

Concept of this anime looks pretty original and also interesting, lots of information about strength training in a entertainment format

I feel like this will become a hidden gem

Charming but pretty cookie-cutter first episode. I can see how most of the season is going to play out but seems worth the watch. Also if anybody actually wants to properly bench press, look up a guide showcasing better form.

I loved it! So much positive energy in this anime already. Nothing better than seeing people trying to improve themselves. Also seems like it's going to be quite educational with its explanations how to do exercises.

Machio is clearly a wizard fitting all that muscle in there, also photoshopped head lol.
Hibiki sure eats a lot.
Akemi's reactions were priceless ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Machio is a real macho man lol Also, love the opening song! Very catchy ^^

Hibiki have a long way to go. It's her first time so it's to be expected and I feel the pain after exercise at the gym. Very uncomfortable feeling but the more we try exercise, the less painful we'll get, at least that's what someone told me ;)

Great episode! I like instructive anime, and this one won the spot for me :)

I'm guessing that the whole thing about Akemi liking Hibiki's eating is cos bodybuilders need a high calorie intake to gain muscle mass so Akemi thinks that she can make Hibiki go down that road?

Oh my goodness....this is quite something. We got muscles and exercising from the start with some nutrition facts. The OP theme song is pretty catchy imo.

The world of working out looks like a tough place as the way they showed this. Muscles everywhere. Akemi's reactions are comedy gold.



Lol, the macho's anime version is quite more realistic compared to manga. I like.


Still a monstrosity though. To get anywhere near that in real life, body builders tend to have to dehydrate themselves to the point of dying so the muscles bulge out like that.

So far this just seems like an excuse to be horny, but I like muscly girls so I'm not complaining. Plus, the OST is a fucking banger. The only real issue that I have with the show is that chubby Hibiki is hot so it sucks to see her body-shamed but like I said, I like muscly girls so

Hilarious and fun show, but felt like an advertisement than anime. Seems like Japan is spreading their advertising from billboard girls to anime characters. Not bad, but not particularly impressive. Good medium to illustrate exercising though.

I think chubby Hibiki is quite hot.
I want more Hibiki and Akemi interactions and less muscle/protein/whatever the fuck bullshit.
I most say these pink highlights in their eyes are really annoying.

episode 1 was a treat. The characters were introduced well and I am looking forward to the episode 2. The workouts are insane and I'm looking for more training that'll happen. I love the gag and comedy scenes

Woah never know Doga Kobo was behind this, and this actually pretty popular too. For the vas, its surely from someone i know too. Kek Machio, so the op really not a lie. Ganbatte, Hibiki!

Well, ill try to treat this as casual watch as possible, because i am not sure if this 'edutainment' able to free me from laziness xd. But at least there's something more as a treat. Yes. Sora Amami heavy breathing ... Love it xd.

All I need is my treadmill. I've been doing 5km/h, 30 mins a day for years now and my weight is alright. I'm too lazy to ever do muscle building. I tried it years ago and I gave up after a week. lol

Damn, Akemi's cute pits. I'd love to lick em given the chance. hehe

After the first couple of minutes I knew this would be a lot of fun to watch. Lots of memes and at the same times it's also very informative about fitness. This low key can be motivating for people who want to start with exercise or people who lack endurance. Since I started with training myself a couple weeks ago, this feels like the perfect anime to watch right now.

I wonder if Hibiki ends up becoming a muscle girl or if she really just loses some weight and that's it. Machio completely caught me off guard when his clothes were bursting away and a guy with a seemingly "normal" physique transformed into Arnold Schwarzenegger lol.

Not to forget the OP is super catchy. Can't wait to see where this whole will lead us to.

This anime is great for tips when working out, I was unaware I was supposed to go that low as I usually do farmers walks, underarmed pull ups, spider curls, and a few other things not counting bench pressing around 70lbs each hand as I don't have a single bar yet but this is great for people learning and a great comedy aswell. For those getting into working out a tip, Drink a LOT of water before, durring, and after workout as dehydration is not only bad for you but will injure your gains. Along with that It doesn't matter how much you lift as long as you're doing 3 sets of 6 - 8 with good form, If you feel you can do more don't up the weights till next time or you'll most likely break something ; Instead do more reps in place of the weight.

besides having cringy ecchi stuff [which i recommend skipping sometimes], I might recommend this anime. as a lifter i would obviously say that stuff shown here were pretty accurate - such as bench press technique. also found certain easter eggs such as "silver gym" with a similar logo to a gym branch called "gold gym" [if i recall its name correctly].
