As a "weeb" that's been "power building" for five years now, I wholeheartedly support this anime and it's goal of teaching people about health and wellness.

Each episode teaches anywhere between 1-3 different health and wellness tips, from lifting free weights to diet tips. However, both the manga and anime push outdated/controversial information as gospel. Things like "the golden hour," have been debunked by recent studies, and the demonstrations they show to teach proper barbell form are somewhat lacking (depending on the type of training you're aiming for). Anyone inspired by this manga/anime to start working out should seek the help of a trained professional, ideally ... from one that's specialized in the style of fitness you're after.

I'm a total sucker for slice-of-life comedies, and this checks the boxes for me. I've had to reach for the pause button so many times just because of the gags, and I can't wait to see more of this show.
