He decided 30 minutes of this excercise as well. And after that would be another 10 minute break. Hopefully, it would be one less dramatic break. Chise then asked if she did it correctly "Yes, you are. Don't worry you're going great"He continued to train alongside his student, but couldnt help but also reminiscence about how Chise got him to work out properly. G never really bothered going to the gym, he just improvised when he'd occassionally train. Not to mention he'd let Goliath deal the grunt work. So in a way, this was his first time working out in a gym "How are you holding up?I think 30 minute excerise and 10 minute break is a good pattern. Right?" he asked, making sure he wasnt pushing his student too far. Thinking about it, maybe after this he'd do 1 more excercise and then let her go home. He didnt wanna keep her the entire day. Surely she had other things to do as well
G didnt wanna worry himself over that. Instead he planned what to do when they meet again. Maybe a relaxing calming encounter was in order and then a training one. A meeting to train her mind and then another one to train her body. Although, just imagining himself training someones mind seemed laughable to G. As he was probably the worst teacher ever. It was obvious that girl needed some confidence boost and some directions in life. Not to mention, if he is put in jail... she'd have to accept it. She had to be prepared for the worst and deal with loss. "No no... not now. We're not getting dark" he thought

The soft praise from her teacher seemed to boost the little bit of confidence that the redhead had, knowing that if her teacher said she was doing a good job, it must actually be true. Chise smiled and kept up the hard work, continuing to do the exercise at a pace that worked best for her, since she was still improving. It was nice that G continued to work out along side her, it's as if they were motivating one another, striving each other towards their larger end goal. Chise turned her head to look at G once he asked f she was still doing alright to which she responded with a nod. "I think it's a good pattern, it's not to straining and it gets me to work out without feeling the need to pass out," the violet eyed girl told her teacher, "Perhaps once I get a bit stronger, we can increase the amount of time exercising. It's just a thought," she suggested.
Chise continued pushing through until the thirty minutes were up, soon setting the weights down on the ground, her breath slightly uneven from working out. Chise got up from her knees and sat on the bench, reaching over and taking a drink from her water bottle. The peachy haired girl held her water bottle and turned to G. "So after we take out 10 minute break, do you suppose we'll keep working out, this time with another exercise?" she asked with a smile before taking another drink from her water bottle. She liked to know what would be next on her training agenda for the day.

He tried to be a good teacher since he was new to this. He tried to be positive and always encourage his student. And so when he saw that his positive words motivated Chise and gave her confidence, that made him happy. He was also glad she liked the pattern that he randomly made up. And she even made a suggestion "Of course. Small challenges like that are good. Bumping things up when you get stronger" he said
The two trained together for half an hour, until their time was up. Then they set down the weights. Chise needed a drink once again. Reasonable as she was still like a delicate flower. G also needed something to drink "I'll just sit this next round out... or maybe I will work. I dunno" he thought to himself When Chise asked will they do something different. G nodded in agreement "Yes, we will. We worked with your gun- I mean biceps and your forearms. So I think we'll lastly work on the triceps and we'll get the lightest barbell for you. We used dumbbells this entire time. Now its time for a finisher. I think I might switch it to 15 minutes" G said

Wait, what was he going to say? Did he mean to say 'guns'? Chise couldn't help but chuckle at the little slip up, she liked the funny side to G even when he wasn't trying to be funny. "Oh yes, working on my guns now," Chise said with another laugh, she hadn't heard that term much other than to describe those macho men and their arms. What was that one phrase? 'Welcome to the gun show'? It was quite silly but quite fun. Maybe she'll have 'guns' of her own one day to show off to the villains that get in her way. Look out world, here come's Chise with her 'guns' a-blazin.
Chise calmed her laughter, taking it serious now as G explained what he would have her do after their ten minute break was done. "A barbell hmm? What's the lightest a barbell can be? Don't they have those really heavy disks on the ends? I doubt I'd be able to lift even one of them. It'd be more beneficial of we stuck two bags of marshmallows on each end and have me lift that," the redhead girl said, cracking up once more. She could imagine herself failing at lifting a jumbo bag of marshmallows, instead falling over and the bag of delicious sugar fluffs falling on top of her. What an imagination she had today. In all seriousness though, she didn't know if they even made barbells light enough for someone like her. She thought those were made for the heavy lifters of the gym community.

Who was the manliest man macho man god among men? G of course. Of course he'll refer to his biceps as his guns. He even messed with Miku when they did a vlog together by using his 'guns'. When he heard Chise laugh, he gave her a pat on the head, once again appreciating her happiness. Once she calmed down, she spoke about asked about the ligtest lightweight barbell and how heavy that is. Honestly? G didnt know "I dunno. I guess I'll go take a look and see. Believe it or not, this is my first time working out in a gym." he told his student He once again heard her laugh and couldnt help but pat her on the head just for a little bit. Once she would calm down again. G asked "So, hows UA doing? How's school treating you?"
G was curious about her education, what would she get from her other teachers. Did she learn some self defence there? Surely they must teach kids some basics, right? It's a hero school and even though she's a general studies student, surely they must teach something? To be an everday Hero? Sure, thats not being a Pro, but it was some start for the ones who werent in the 'Hero course'

His first time at a gym? Really? She thought guys typically go to the gym all the time, perhaps she was wrong this time in her suspicions. "I would have thought you go to the gym all the time, but that was just a hunch. It's something new for both of us then," the peach haired girl said with a smile. Chise didn't pout this time when he gave her head a pat, slowly but surly getting used to having her head pat by G whenever she did something good. If it were anyone else though, she would puff her cheeks out and pout. G, though, she puffed her cheeks out slightly but wasn't mad at him for touching her head. She didn't even mind all to much when he pet her head a second time, perhaps she was just getting used to his weird but cool self.
The bubbly high school girl soon heard G ask how school was going for her. Before the violet eyed femme could answer, she took another sip from her water bottle before holding it in her lap once more. "School is going well for me! We haven't really gotten to the physical aspect of the curriculum but we've been learning all different things about quirks and the history behind them. I'm not really one who likes history but that is my favorite class thus far...well besides math," Chise said with a smile. Sure they wouldn't get to practice with their quirks until alter on in the year but Chise didn't mind all that much, it wasn't like she could really make her quirk stronger now...well at least that's what she thought.

She thought he went to the gym all the time? Well thats understandable, only the manliest of man go to the gym, even manliest women go as well. But not G, he was raised on the streets...and juvie... and prison...but hey, thats life for ya. He then clarified to Chise "Well. This is my first time working out in a gym. My first time was when I borrowed that punching bag for our last training session. Also, I usually just trained alone. And Life was my Teacher."
After that, Chise answered his question as he was curious how school was. And, it was seemingly normal. It wasnt practical word. It was just paperwork lessons. History of Quirks, math, probably literature and grammar. He couldnt believe they didnt teach the General Studies kids some basics of self defence. What if someone went to mug them? Hell, he even remembered a boy being attacked by a Quirk hater. "Ah.... I see. Well, Im glad I took you in then. I just cant believe you guys havent started any form of self defence. Well.... I guess then by the time you do start it, you'll have a big head start!" he told Chise

"Where exactly did you get the punching bag from? If you said this was your first time at a facility like this, there had to be somewhere else you obtained the punching bag from last time we trained," Chise said, finding herself a bit curious at the subject now presented to her. Perhaps it wasn't anything major, he probably got the punching bag from his house knowing G. Just a thought the redhead had come across. "Alone? Like looking up exercises to do and doing them by yourself?" Chise asked, she would think that was the case as she could not really think of what else he could mean by 'training alone'.
The violet eyed girl looked up at G and smiled, hearing him say he was glad he took her under his wing to train. "Y-Yeah, Tsutsuji-sensei said it is a bit hard for us to find time and space to train since the hero classes take up most of the training facilities. They are the...how should I say...more equipped class, requiring use of the facilities more often than the general studies class," the peach haired girl explained. She didn't want to say 'better' in case G would get angry, but it wasn't like she would be lying if she said that. They were in the hero classes for a reason just as she was in the general studies course for a reason. Everything happens for a reason. The little comment about being ahead of everyone else thanks to G made the poofy haired girl smile. "I'm glad you took me in too G," the young girl said with a smile, a light blush coming to her cheeks.

G sees that his student completely misunderstood him. He went to clarify and simplify it again "Ok ok. Let me explain. This isnt my first time in a gym. This is my first time working out in a gym. I borrowed the punching bag from here. I came, I asked, I borrowed with my excellent persuasion skills. Its just when I came to borrow the item. I didnt work out. Do you understand now" he explained to her once more and asked her if she understood him now
She then asked how he managed to train alone and not in a gym. "I could lie to you and say that I did that. But I'd rather not tell you how I trained alone. I dont want you to cry" he was honest with her. He didnt want to tell her about his life on the streets and how he got into fights. She cried when he told her the sugarcoated version about his quirk origin and his parents. She cried earlier today. He didnt want that anymore.
He then listened how Chise described that the Hero course.... of couse... had dibs on the training areas. General Studies dont have room nor priority to train. G just shook his head to that as he remembered how he had to save a General Studies student from a quirk hater "Your class should organize a 'field trip' to this gym or some other gym to work out. Its not even about who's a hero and who aint. Its about self defence. I saved one of your classmates who was being assulted. Keep in mind just because you and your class aint some priority. It doesnt mean you should stop training all together. The fact that UA doesnt have some special facility for each class is shameful. The Hero course just take everything and give you nothin. Im sorry, I guess I just like rooting for the underdog. But we'll do something to get you to be like them. You'll be a martial arts heroine in no time"
He then jokingly gave her 'homework' "For homework, I suggest you grab a comic. Not a manga, but a classic american superhero comic. There's one about this rich guy who became a hero. He doesnt have powers. He just learned martial arts and detective skills. Know that you can be a Hero without a flashy quirk like mine"

Oh, so he did borrow the punching bag from the gym, who knew you could just walk in and ask to borrow something as expensive and heavy as that. He's just never worked out at a gym before but he has been into the facility, that made a bit more sense to the redhead. Chise looked at G and nodded, understanding his situation much more clearly. To think that he would go out and just purchase a punching bag like that was quite silly now that Chise thought about it a bit more. The violet eyed girl frowned hearing G tell her she may not want to know how he trained by himself before he took her under his wing. She understood, sometimes you just didn't want to share certain parts about your life with others. It was G's life, he could tell her what he wished to tell and keep quiet about the things he didn't.
The peach haired girl listened to G explain that her class should go on a field trip to a gym of sorts to help work on the more physical parts of their body instead of working their minds in the classroom. Yes self defense was important, but a student could only do so much under the guidance of their instructor. She was shocked to hear that G had saved one of her classmates, finding the act quite heroic of him. She wondered who it was that G helped, she would have to ask her classmates about that when they met next. A soft chuckle left the pink lips of the cheery girl, her being on par with the students of the heroics course was a fun dream to have. She appreciated G's enthusiasm for wanting to train her harder to be just as good as the heroes, he was like her personal cheerleader of sorts.
"Ehh homework?" she asked with a slight frown, she would understand maybe doing some exercises for homework but to read a comic book? That seemed a bit silly. "I don't own any comic books G," the younger girl spoke, "I suppose I could see if the library has any could read..." she mused, she really wasn't a comic book reader, much less a book reader. Maybe G had some she could borrow. While she still had training on the mind, Chise piped up once more, "Do you think we could move on to the next exercise now G?" she asked her teacher.

Truth be told, he did get it by threatening people. But he did return the item. So maybe that was actually a mix of Persuasion and Intimidation. He listened to Chise more, but then noticed that their 10 minutes were up. Time sure flies "Hm? Oh! Right!... Lets see" he said and looked around for a barbell. He then found one that semed light only 5kg. He then grabbed it and proceeded to explain "Step 1. Stand up with your torso upright while holding a barbell at a shoulder-width grip. The palm of your hands should be facing forward and the elbows should be close to the torso. This will be your starting position. Step 2.While holding the upper arms stationary, curl the weights forward while contracting the biceps as you breathe out. Tip. Only the forearms should move. Step 3. Continue the movement until your biceps are fully contracted and the bar is at shoulder level. Hold the contracted position for a second and squeeze the biceps hard. Step 4. Slowly begin to bring the bar back to starting position as your breathe in. Step 5. Repeat for the recommended amount of repetitions." G explained to her and with each step also demonstated what she was supposed to doHe then gently lowered the item and stepped aside so she could do it

The studious girl watched as her teacher demonstrated how to do the next exercise, having found a barbell that Chise might be able to handle. His fancy terminology was a little hard to understand but watching him do the exercise first helped Chise a lot. She didn't want to attempt to do an exercise she didn't know and hurt herself in the process. Once the white haired man was finished demonstrating and placed the barbell back down on the ground, the red-haired girl too his place and carefully picked up the barbell from off the ground. It definitely was a little heavier then the hand weights she held not too long ago, but she believed a bit of a challenge was good for someone like her.
The violet eyed girl followed G's steps, holding the barbell a certain way before carefully curling her arms to hold the barbell against her chest before slowly lowering back to rest. It was a little hard to get the barbell up at first but she took her time and did the best she could with this new exercise. She breathed out when she brought the barbell to her shoulders and breathed out when she brought it back down to rest, her breathing would help her get through this exercise without really running out of breath. Chise looked up to G for approval, still concentrating on the barbell in her hand. She wanted to make sure she was doing this right as to make G happy again.

G was never good at instruction, whether it was giving instructions or listening to them. He knew the best way to learn was to see an example. When he did his part, he stopped aside and allowed Chise to try it. She carefully followed the steps he did. She was so determined and hardworking that it made G proud. When she looked at him she could see him have his arms crossed but discreetly givng her a thumbs up. She could also see that he was holing his huge smile. He looked like a father who was so happy that his child won a gold medal. Thats how happy and proud he was. He could imagine her being a Hero, with her kind personality and attitude.
He did his best to motivate her and help her achieve her dreams. G kept an eye on the time because this would be their last excercise of the day. He didnt wanna keep her for hours. They're been here over 2 hours already. So he didnt wanna keep her here the entire day if she needed to go elsewhere. Although, if need be, he'd escort her to UA, since he lived nearby the school

G looked a little funny with his arms crossed like that, trying to give her a discrete thumbs up. The redhead would softly chuckle before concentrating back on her reps, she was almost finished and just needed to do a few more. How many was she supposed to do exactly again? G didn't really give her an exact number so she supposed she would have to make up her own. She had done about 25 as of this last one she did, perhaps she could go to 30 or maybe even 35 and call it quits for the day. Yeah, that sounded good. Chise focused on her breathing and her reps, mentally counting how many she was doing. 26...27...28...up and down, up and down the barbell in her hands went as she counted how many she had completed.
The poofy haired teen was determined, going for the 35 instead of the 30 she had decided on. As she finished, Chise carefully bent down and placed the barbell on the ground before taking a seat on the bench behind her. That time she took no breaks so she was a little more tired now than before. Chise grabbed her water bottle and took a drink before holding it in her hand, softly panting as she calmed her breathing down. Chise looked up at G with a soft smile, still panting a bit. "H-How did I do?" the cheery teen asked, wondering what he would say in response. Hopefully she did enough, she would do more if he wanted her to but first she needed a tiny break.

G did not expect Chise to go beyond...plus ultra. But in all seriousness, he did not expect that Chise would manage to do it not 30 but 35 times!! When she finished and took a bit of a drink. G hugged her and praised her "That was amazing!! God job!!!" he did not care if heads turned. She deserved this dammit! "Well... as per deal even if we didnt make a deal... Imma gonna treat ya! You said bakery, right?? Well, Im gonna reward ya and buy ya a meal. Heck, you can even ride Goliath. You seem tired, so let us handle it. Ok?.... Unless you gotta go back to UA?" he said
Chise was sure amazing. She was his star pupil. If she keeps this up, she'll be strong and they'll get to fight.... well train and learn about actual fighting. They wont fight eachother. After all, the goal of this is for her to learn how to punch good, kick good and dodge good. She already showed good dodging skills. But was too physically weak for any punching or kicking "I wonder how much do we have to work until she's capable of throwing a good punch?" G thought to himself
