A young Japanese office worker has allegedly been doing ab wheel exercises every day for the last year in order to attain the muscular body of his favorite anime character, Inosuke Hashibira.

On March 1st, 2021, the 33-year-old office worker, known only by his Twitter handle (@InosukeWorkout) posted photos of his body on the microblogging social network, announcing that he was going to start doing ab wheel exercises in order to achieve the toned physique of Inosuke Hashibira, one of the main protagonists of the Demon Slayer: Kimenu no Yaiba manga/anime. Sporting the character’s iconic wild boar mask, the mysterious man then started daily videos of himself doing ab wheel exercises, and documenting his progress through photos.

We didn’t g through all of his Twitter posts, but @InosukeWorkout recently told IT Media that his account grew steadily, at a slow pace at first, but as his body changed and word of his unique project spread, the number of followers grew as well. At the time of this writing, his Twitter had a respectable 249,000 followers.

In his recent interview with IT Media, the 33-year-old said that he decided on an ab wheel because it was an easy-to-use, high-impact exercise device. It turns out he was right, as the simple ab wheel helped him get the body he desired, as well as lose over 13 kilograms.
