Why is Saitama so Strong?
In the anime, Saitama tells in detail about his source of power. According to Saitama, he achieved immense strength by performing 100 push-ups, 100 squats, 100 sit-ups, and running 10 kilometers daily for about a year. As per Game Rant
However, the actual source of such power of Saitama is still a mystery. Some say, Saitama got his powers on grounds of inspiration from other comic series.
Some speculate that Saitama derives his power from God himself.A factor that attests to this theory is that in the headquarters of Monster Association, Saitama, Oculette, and Flashy Flash, communicated with a divine being through a mysterious cube.
God offered these characters a chance to hold greater powers if they could pass his test. However, they turned down the offer, and later on, the number-one S-Class hero, Blast arrived. God recognizes him and Blast states that he knows God and presently he was searching for these superpower-rich cubes.
Consequently, the God theory suggests that Saitama gained his immense strength by coming into contact with one of these divine cubes or some godly blessing.
