Their bodies remain child-like for several years before rapidly growing into their adult bodies[1], and they age slowly after reaching their prime[2] in order to remain young and battle-ready for decades[3]; after reaching a certain age, however, they rapidly grow frail. Additionally, Saiyans have a longer lifespan[4] than humans)

Their innate instincts as Saiyans allow for rapid growth in strength and ability, providing the potential for strength development through training that allows them to adapt and learn new techniques quickly)

- Further Enhanced Senses (Extra Senses; Super Saiyan form allows the user[14] to determine how the opponent will move by bouncing their own energy off of the opponent in a manner similar to an active radar,[14] even when the main senses can no longer be used,[14] and the presence of the opponent cannot be sensed[15] through conventional means[14])
