The Akimichi clan derives it's chakra from one main ancilla: food. Food must be consumed at a near constant rate in order to suffice the balance between exertion and expenditure in terms of chakra. There are two main Jutsus shared by said clan: Baika No Jutsu and Meat Tank. Baika No Jutsu variably increases your size depending on the amount of chakra you can exert. Thus it is possible to double your size or [if you're stronger] become as large as a building. Of course, what is the point of simply being gargantuan? Enter Meat Tank, the quintessential attack of the Akimichi clan. Once Chouji executes Baika No Jutsu, Meat Tank follows shortly thereafter. What is Meat Tank exactly? Well, to be simple, the user must stick in his limbs [including head], roll up into a ball and charge at the opponent. This results in a high velocity attack that can severely damage the opponent. Unfortunately, because the attack has a high velocity it is difficult to control the direction of the attack [which results in numerous failed attempts].
There is one trump card that the Akimichi clan is well known for: the Houren Pill. This panacea is well known throughout Konoha as the end-all for battles once used. It heightens the power of the user to unimaginable levels. There is one severe drawback albeit; if all three are taken in quick succession it may result in the demise of the consumer. As such, the Houren Pills are taken with immense caution and are only used in the direst of situations. In the fight to save Sasuke, Chouji must realize the unmitigated power of the Houren Pills as it is his duty to fight for Konoha, but he soon realizes that it is much more dangerous than he first estimated it to be.
