One can say that doing some training every day, it gets easier after some time. That could be true if you have a normal training if you have the heavenly library tell you the way to training your body to the perfection your life practically converts itself in a true hell.
There are three types of Muscle; Red Muscle which has high endurance but very little strength (Cross Country runners), White Muscle is composed of high strength but low speed and endurance (Weightlifters), and finally Pink Muscle which is a hybrid of the two. With the proper workouts and training, one can rid their body entirely of red and white muscle and fill their body entirely with pink muscle. Thus, forming the ultimate body. With this being said, the person would not have huge muscles necessarily, however, will still attain massive amounts of strength, speed, and endurance which is overall more powerful and more, fitting to any situation of dealing with an opponent.
Making all the muscles of your body pink one's sound like a dream come true, right?
That's too far from the truth...
After Thomas get out of his house, he has to Jog around an hour until his body heats up, do some stretching, then he starts exercising
He has to start doing high reps with low weight once he is able to do the high reps with no issues or too much strain, has to move on to a higher weight and continue this process as he moves higher and higher in weight.
Alternating workouts between high weights with low reps and low weights with high reps which will form pink muscle by clashing the red and white muscles together
You're asking yourself, why he is doing all this when he can cultivate his own body with the circulation technique?
Yes, when he circulates ki in his body, slowly but surely his ki starts to condensate, purify and get more ki in the process. When he gets more ki than his body can handle, he can refine it to make his body stronger.
It sounds great, but the final product isn't in his liking, he can ending looking like one of those martial artists in those wuxia novels, slender body, jade skin, long hair, and all that shit. Who wants to look like a girl without a penis? is ridiculous.
That's why he chose the second choice, training his body until it is in the best humanly condition possible, then when he will 'refine' his body, he will have the potential to be a walking weapon, maybe he can't beat Superman and those others monsters, but he will get there, someday. Also, choosing this it has nothing to do that when he finished the routine, he will look like a real warrior and have the perfect body to get the booty
*cough*
*cough*
Anyway, Thomas routine starts when he wakes up at 4 am, washes his face, dress up, put in place his weights in the wrist, ankles and a belt with weights, then he goes to the kitchen to prepare himself a drink with all the necessary nutrients and minerals for the day, let me tell you it's not a pleasant thing to drink, even he confirmed with the heavenly library countless times if he really has to drink it...
He goes to the park to exercise like crazy for exactly 4 hours, comes back to his home at 8:15 hs gets breakfast with his mother and uncle, his dad wakes at 7 am to go to his new business here in Gotham.
Then at 9 am he starts a 3-hour study marathon, why? Because to have a perfect body one a sharp mind isn't enough only exercise the body.
Lunch with all the family, another horrible drink, at 12:30 hs meditate two hours and circulate his ki in his body, maybe purify it a little, like said before, is possible to purify his ki, but is a long and slow process.
14:30 hs he started to practice some moves with his ki, they are crude, unrefined and something dangerous, for himself, but most important his opponents. That's two hours and half of practice.
17:00 hs an hour of rest
18:00 hs three hours of workouts like in the morning but more like a mix with his ki moves and techniques
9 pm lunch with all the family, another hour of meditation, then an hour and ½ studying college material.
11:30 pm a long and deserved bath after a hell day, go to the bed, sleep for 4 hours, wake up and repeat, that was Thomas life this 6 days
*************************************************
8:50 pm
Thomas was running around the lake in Robinson park when he heard sounds of fighting, he keeps drawing near the sound, after jogging 200mts he was in the reservoir.
Then he saw it, Batman fighting what it looks like 100 thugs, at the side it was the penguin screaming like crazy
"Beat him! Best him i say!!" the penguin face was all red from fury, the monocle in his eye was breaking because of his distorted face by the fury, his top hat was in the floor all dirty like his tuxedo from what it looks like a fall
Thomas takes a good look at Batman, it looks like he has some ki on him, but he can't control it or he has not been taught on the mastery of it.
For the mastery of ki one has to know how to activate it by training or someone has to teach you and help you activate it, like Hunter X Hunter.
Anyway, Batman like the master in martial art he is, he was beating all thugs one by one smoothly. The penguin desperate for an alternative he looks to the side and spots Thomas looking the fight
"Get me that boy!!! he will make an excellent hostage" immediately half of penguin men's started to run towards him. Batman seeing this he started to fight with more fervor, using more of his gadgets, but whatever he tried to do it wasn't enough, always a new thug appear in his way.
Thomas put himself in a fighting stance like boxing ready to fight the incoming horde, the first thug fell like his teeth with a fist in his face, the second with a hook to the liver, a third one tried to grab him from his back, Thomas tried to do a roundhouse kick, but a fourth thug hit him with a baseball bat on the ribs.
*huff* "quickly grab him!!" the fourth thug yells at the others while he was hitting Thomas again, this time with his fist in Thomas' face.
*huff* ' i will remember this motherfucker!!' he could taste the blood in his mouth. 'Let's see what the heaven library says about you' he closes his eyes and search for his book 'So, his name his name is Ignatius Ogilvy huh'
"Penguin we have him!!"
"It took you long enough! As you can see bat! we have the boy, so don't try anything funny" Batman has some batarangs in his hand ready to be thrown, hearing the threat of the penguin he slowly put them down
'Oh, shit! this is getting out of control I have to think of a way to get out of this, yeah let's see the weakness of this Ignatius guy... mmm'.
Thomas started to circulate ki into his body meanwhile all here distracted watching Batman
"Hey you! blondy!" Ignatius turned around and looking at Thomas with disdain "I bet that your father never loves you, you only were the son he had with his favorite whore!! hahaahahah"
"What! Did! You! say!?!" Ignatius couldn't hold his anger and tried to hit him with the baseball bat again, when he was about to hit him, three batarangs appear from nowhere.
The batarangs dug deeply into his left arm, using this opportunity Thomas hit the guy in his back with a headbutt, disorientating him then quickly standing up he used a judo technique to take him off.
The other thugs tried to encircle him again, but this time Thomas will not have mercy with them.
He jumped toward the nearest thug, kicked his face with ki and used it as a platform to do a roundhouse kick filled with ki knocking all the thugs around him.
*whoooshh*
Thomas hear a strong sound behind his head, fearing the worst he couches at the last moment, a thug was aiming a full swing with a pipe to his head, Thomas' face him and launched a punch at the thug, at the precise moment of the fist making impact the ki in his arm was perfectly timed, the impact in the thug's chest created a sonic boom and he was blown away several meters, when he landed, tried to get up the only thing that he got was throw up some blood.
All the fighting stopped for a moment, all were looking at the thug then at Thomas, nobody could believe what was happening.
Thomas himself couldn't believe it, he was looking at his fist dumbfounded, he knew that he has some power and that he has a lot of potential, but he didn't know that he was getting powerful that fast! he suddenly heard a grumpy voice behind him startling him, he looks behind him and Batman was right there! he beat all the thugs and the penguin at the moment they were distracted.
"You got a strong punch" Batman was quiet for a moment and was looking at him like he was looking through his soul or something "But you need training, I can give it to you if you want" said batman extending his hand
Thomas look at the hand for a moment thinking about it a moment " *sigh* I know, keep in mind that I only started to train a recently, but I will considerate you offer, just let me think about it, ok?"
*groan* a random thug complained from the pain, Thomas looks at the thug for a moment, when he tried to look at Batman again he was nowhere to be seen!! The guy disappeared!!
In his place was a little device with the form of a bat and a little button. "Well this could have got a lot worse"
You could listen to the sirens of the police Approaching up "Oh shit, I have to go"
*************************************************
When Thomas was in his home he met his uncle Howard in the hallway "Oh Thomas I check your exams and they were perfect, you are already in condition to enter any university you want, what do you say?"
"🤔 mmm... nah, I am not ready for university girls, let me taste the high school for a semester or two, is that ok?"
"what do you mean by...? Oh, I see! I guess like father like son" he ruffles my hair and starts to leave
"Uncle?" he turns around to face me "Why you didn't ask about my face"
"You know that my ex-wife Anna was a cop right?" I nod "well I guess that I get used to seeing something like that and we are living Gotham"
"And how you deal seeing Aunt Anna all the time like this?" I pointed to my bloody face
"Well, I washed her face, make her some dinner, I spend my time with her and..." I sent him a questioning look, he shrugs and says
"(͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) 👉👌"
"hahahaah ok ok goodnight uncle"
"bye"
*************************************************
After going to the kitchen to find some ice pack he goes to his room, takes off his training gear drenched in sweat and some blood.
He layed in his bed and places the ice pack in his ribs, wincing at the cold before sighing, letting the numbness take over the pain.
"Tomorrow is the great day, I'm going to the high school! Again..."
*************************************************
Well, guys what a chaotic two days!! when I was at halfway done with the chapter I said: 'now I am going to finish this chapter so I can get over this'
but nooo!!! I ended watching tv on the couch with my dog, then I forget about anything that has to do with writing.
Most of the time I am more a reader than a writer that's why another half day.
then the worst of all, I had a little mental block the images in my head were fluid but I couldn't write at all!!
I insist on write at least little by little and here we are! A brand new chapter!!
