Tried this but they barely did anything for me.
I had a coach who showed me a another exercise instead.
Dumbbell Nan Kilo Moteru?
No they're cheap but totally inaccurate. If you want to actually know you can buy a set of calipers, or pay for a DEXA scan/float tank measurement, but even then the absolute number isn't that accurate, it's better just to track the relative changes.
I've tried a few, typically the ones I can do while watching the show (don't want to pause the episode or miss subtitles). Most notable was the chair dip one because man I was terrified by the creaking noise and wobbling my chairs did. It became extra funny when Hibiki broke the chair, which caused me to immediately stop. I don't think my weight was the issue since I'm only about 65kg, so it might just be my chairs aren't sturdy enough in construction for it (they're pretty old and some of them are missing screws). Needless to say I haven't tried that particular exercise again.
The rest went smoothly. I'll probably add some of them to my exercise routine when I get more time.

What is it?
I have already been working out every day already for the past two years, because Hajime no Ippo made me buy a heavy bag and gloves.
But this show makes wanna switch up my usual routine of 25 minutes hit the bag, 15 minutes push-ups, sit-ups and jumping rope, 5 minutes on the dumbbells and finishing with 15 minutes of running. Especially for winter, where running outside is a fucking pain.
I just started going to the gym for the first time last month. Unrelated to this anime but because of another one. I'm up 16 pounds already and noticing myself getting slightly more toned. Super excited to keep going
