RORONOA ZORO

Three-Sword StyleSantōryū Protocol6 days/wk
Physique

Compact, sword-strong, three-style discipline

Lore Context

Zoro trains by lifting boulders with three swords. The translation: heavy unilateral lifts, oblique-dominant rotational strength, and grip work to the point of absurdity.

Uses three swords — one held in his teeth.

Trained by lifting steel weights so heavy a normal person would die.
