You do not need to worry much about Manaslu trekking difficulty. You do not need have an athletic body for this trek. Relatively, the most challenging day can the day when you have to cross the Larkya La Pass from Dharmashala to Bhimtang. The trek shall start along Budhi Gandaki River and throughout the trek, the trail shall cross its several tributaries. You might not experience any harsh physical challenge before reaching Samagaon and Dharmashala, and thus, there resides no extreme risk of altitude sickness. Leaving Phewa, you will climb uphill to reach Deng. The trail between Tatopani to Yarphu Phant is twisting demand quite a bit of physical effort.
The only physical fitness you require is a body fit enough to walk long duration over hills and moraines, and enduring capacity to stick to the trek for such long trek. Ensure that you do not have any skeleton problems, particularly related to knee and ankle. However, for your comfort, you might do some physical exercises and jog few weeks prior to the trek. You aren't allowed to trek this route alone; you must be accompanied by a guide and must be traveling in a group of two. You will get typical Nepali food such as Dal Bhat, as well as continental and Italian food, depending upon where you reach for your stay. Either you have to quick to reach Dharmashala to secure your room, or you have to book it before you reach it; otherwise, you might end up in a camp, as you will not find any settlement nearby.
The cost of food and accommodation can be cheaper than that of Annapurna and Everest region. You can charge batteries of your electronic devices before reaching Dharmashala with some cost. Remember to get sunscreen, down jacket, gloves, medical kit, sun glasses, water bottle, a pair of comfortable socks, underwear, lightweight synthetic pants, sweat jacket, water bottle, etc. Throughout the trek, drink plenty of water, stay slow, have sufficient time for acclimatization, eat hygienic food, and stay warm. There isn't any public tourist bus access to Manaslu trek directly. You will have to travel by a local bus to Arughat or Sotikhola and start your trek.
