Providing Guidance (For PrincessBlair)

[Arjuna]

Dana smiled upon seeing Hoshino's enthusiasm. It was good to see any of her pupils being this spirited, hoping that this would bring her somewhere and get her some desirable results. "Well, let us start by training your strength. It is important that you get enough strength to grapple with your opponent. We'll do some strengthening training for this, so please look forward to it."

Dana then gestured at one equipment for strength training. "Let us start with the basic one first..." She pointed at the adjustable squat rack barbell meant for strength training. "Do you know how to use it? I'll do some spotting for you..."

Hoshino takes a look at the squat rack. "Of course I know! Its for squats!" she says as she walks up to the rack. Even through Hoshino is pretty puny compare to other wrestlers, even those in her weight class, she doesn't want to come off as a complete weakling to her new sensei. She puts some weight on the barbells, more weight than she would normally put on them. She would to try to left it to do some squats, but she is obviously struggling.

[Arjuna]

Dana watched as Hoshino went to make some weighted squats. She crossed her arms under her ample breasts as Hoshino began the workout, noting that she was struggling under the weight. Of course, she would continue watching, wanting to see the limit of the girl.

"Come on, you can do it. Try to go for five squats for now." Dana instructed. For safety reason, Dana would also spot for her so that Hoshino wouldn't accidentally hurt herself.

[PrincessBlair]

Hoshino is able to do "One... Twoooo... Threeee..." squats. She really struggles on the third one but manages it. She is unable to do a fourth, and with help of Dana she puts the bellbar back on the rack.

"Sorry... Dana-sensei... I wasn't able to do five..." Hoshino says, sitting down where she was standing earlier. She is out of breath and sweaty after just that little bit.

[Arjuna]

Dana expected this to happen, and after putting the bellbar back on the rack, she looked at her new student, placing her hands on her hips. "Well, not everyone's an expert at the beginning, you know? And you ought to start out with something lighter." She would give Hoshino a brief moment of rest before she removed some weights off the bar, wanting her to do it again, this time with lighter weight.

"Okay, let's do it again. Try to make it to five this time." Dana would prepare herself to spot for her, wanting to see if Hoshino could manage to do it as she was told.

[PrincessBlair]

"Right... Sensei..." Hoshino huffs, still catching her breath. She sits for a few seconds, before getting drink of water, and now she is ready another go. "Alright I can do this!" the young girl says, mostly to herself, as she gets into position.

" One... Two... Three... Foooouurr..." She seems to be doing better with weight lighter, but Hoshino struggles on the fifth and final one. She push up with all her might and... "FFFFiiiivvve!" Hoshino is barely able to do the final squats. She puts the bar back on the rack and immediately falls down to the floor. "I did it... Dana-Sensei..."

[Arjuna]

Dana nodded approvingly as Hoshino made it to five. "Well done. Take a rest for a bit. After this, we're doing this one..." She pointed at the nearby incline bench press machine. "It is to strengthen your chest muscles as well as your arms. Hopefully this will improve your strength so that you can wrestle better in the matches..." She motioned at the machine as she waited for Hoshino to get ready for her next workout.

Incline Bench Press Machine

[PrincessBlair]

Hoshino nods looking over at the next machine Dana wants her to do. She rests for a bit, catching her breath, and drinking plenty of water. Soon she is ready to continue her workout, and sits down on the bench press machine. "Ok! Dana-Sensei! I'm ready for this one. I won't mess up this time!"

[Arjuna]

Dana nodded as she looked at Hoshino sitting on the machine. "Good. Try to not overexert yourself, though. Can't have you hurting yourself, you know?" Dana said as she would do what she did before, which was spotting for her. She wanted to see if she could do some bench pressing. "Now, lift the weight..." she instructed, preparing herself to see what her new student was capable of.

[PrincessBlair]

"Don't worry Dana-sensei, I got this!" Hoshino took a couple of deep breaths before trying to lift the weight. She pushes up on the machine. She struggles greatly, but eventually gets it up. Having lifted the weight once, and puts it down. She leans back in the seat to rest for a bit. "Th... that's one..." Hoshino breaths.
