Leo loads the video onto his computer and starts editing it.
When he finishes, he posts it on his blog with the title "Chapter 1 of the Physical Change."
When he finishes, he remembers that there are some challenges that he won't be able to do at home.
He should call Franco to ask about his gym equipment.
His older cousin, Franco, was the one who gave him a video game console for his 12th birthday. My uncles blame him for the fact, as if he had shared drugs with me or something like that. To a certain extent, it was thanks to that that he was able to get away from his addiction to video games. Since they bought him an exercise set, so he could distract himself doing other things. He ended up opening his own mini gym.
Leo grabs his cell phone, opens the contact application and dials his cousin's number.
-Hello Leo? - A young man's voice is heard on the other end.
-Yes, it's me Fran, how are you?-
- Leeeo idiot, a car that was going 10 km/h hit you hahaha. I told you that you should go out and move a little.-
-Hey, I could have died.- Leo said angrily, exaggerating a little.
-Of course, of course. But you know that pigeons have better reflexes than you, right? Hahaha-
-Well, I'll stop laughing otherwise you'll break your teeth from grinding so much. My aunt told me that you were planning to do exercises, right?-
-Yes, today I went out for a run in the morning. My legs can't take it anymore. I think I'm going to lose them or something.-
-Of course, that happens when your body isn't used to doing a type of exercise. Your legs will hurt until the day after tomorrow possibly.
-Yes, that's what I read. I was planning to stop by your gym tomorrow, really early when there's no one to record my exercises. Can I?-
-Of course Leo, people only start coming at 9 or 9:30 in the morning. If you come before around 8, when I open and start cleaning, you'll have the gym to yourself.
-Ok, then I'll come by at that time tomorrow. Thanks Fran-
-Come on, see you.-
After hanging up the call, he sets the alarm on his cell phone for 7 AM.
At dinner, his mother looks at her son who was eating more vigorously than usual, and gives him some meat, then asks.-Eat more meat Leo. Have you started exercising yet?-
-Yes, today I only ran for 8 minutes and it already seemed like I was going to die- Leo answered before continuing to eat.
-You have to take it easy. Physical changes are step by step. Don't rush because you can easily injure yourself.- His father told Leo.
-Listen son. You have to get your body used to small loads.- Elena tells her son with concern.
-Okay. I'll be careful-
After eating, Leo collapses on his bed.
On Thursday morning, before mother Elena can make her morning war cry, Leo's alarm clock goes off.
Ring, ring, ring, ring
Leo slaps his hand without looking at the nightstand where his cell phone was and accidentally hits 'Snooze'.
5 minutes later the alarm went off again.
CRAP, hadn't I turned it off?
Leo grabs his phone, turns off the alarm and looks at the time. When he notices that it's 7:05 am, he sighs and gets out of bed.
The first thing Leo notices as he starts walking to the bathroom is that his legs don't hurt as much as they said they would.
-Support, is it a system thing that can heal me faster?.-
-[The system doesn't have the ability to heal the user. But it does have the function of improving cell recovery and other factors, in proportion to the host's level.]-
-What are those other factors?.-
-[I can only reveal what the user is experiencing. Remember that the system's support guide will only be active until it is considered that the user knows all the functions of the system.]-
-I see, then I must take advantage to ask questions. Why didn't you say anything about the store?.-
-[The store will be available after completing the first catalog.]
-I see. Support, where does the System come from?.-
-[Insufficient authority. Level up to learn more about the system.]-
Resigned, Leo goes to the bathroom. While looking at his face in the sink mirror, he realizes that with the condition of his legs he can try a jog.
Determined, he changes his clothes, prepares the mini camera and a bottle of water. Then he leaves his house for the club.
Upon arriving, he notices that there was no one on the track.
-Perfect.-Leo said confidently, since he was alone.
He adjusts the camera, starts recording and begins his jog, walking at 30 minutes.
This time when he reached 5 minutes his condition was very slightly better than yesterday. But to an experienced eye this change would be impossible in someone who has not done physical activities before.

The sweat on his face was already starting to bother him. 7 minutes had passed..
[+10 in Physical Control Skill]
And when he reached 8 minutes where he had left off yesterday, Leo noticed that he could go a little further. So he continued with determination to reach 10 minutes.
The stopwatch marked 10' and Leo collapsed on the track.
[+15 in Physical Control Skill]
-Haaa, haaa, hahaha. 2 more minutes!- Leo said enthusiastically but with a broken voice.
Leo gets up to rest off the track.
-Leo, incredible. I thought that with yesterday's jog you would be lying in bed today. If it weren't for your bad posture when jogging I would think that you would have done it before.- Raúl said as he approached.
Raúl arrived about 5 minutes early and stayed watching Leo jog. He was surprised that I had lasted 2 days straight.
-Haa, hey Raul. I'm surprised by myself too.- Leo said self-sufficiently.- But do you think I have bad posture?.-
-If you do, when you run for long periods of time, it is advisable to keep your body straight and not lean too far forward. You should watch some videos of people jogging.-
-Ahh yes? I see, thanks. By the way, are you an athlete? - Leo asked curiously.
-I'm a semi-professional athlete at the moment.- He said with a doubtful voice.- Why do you ask?.-
-I wanted to ask you for advice on how to have a good posture.-
-Ahh sure, no problem. Do you want to do it now?.-
-Nono, I have something to do now. Tomorrow we might meet.-
-Come on, I come every day.-
Leo gets up and says goodbye to Raúl. It was 7:30 and he wanted to go home to have breakfast before going to the gym.
Leo arrives and finds his mother who was just finishing cooking.
-Mom, hug-. Leo says approaching his mother.
Elena sees her son all sweaty and yells at him before he arrives. - Get out of here, don't dirty me. Were you really able to run after yesterday's training?-.
-Of course. Who do you think I'm the son of?-
-Bahh, I don't have a stinky son like you.-
-I was clearly referring to dad.-
-Oh yeah? Let your father take care of you the next time a turtle hits you.-
-Ooh, that's a low blow, mama. By the way, aren't you late?-
-Ohh yeah, take care of yourself, kid- Elena says goodbye, giving Leo a kiss in the air. -Right, don't forget to iron your clothes for school.-
-Ohh I almost forgot I have classes today-
While Leo was having breakfast, he decided to check the interface.
-Interface.-

-Ehh, that 92/100 is very OCD. I should be able to go up with some exercises today.-
Leo finishes eating, washes the dishes and takes a quick shower. Then he changes and before leaving he grabs a sheet of paper and writes down all the achievements from the catalog to show Franco. He finishes and leaves his house for the gym.
