First Day Workout (for Highfly)

[Pegasus]

Sarabeth understood what Alania meant about being more selective and choosing who she wanted to train. For her, Alania is a family friend of her adoptive father’s since they worked a lot together in the past. The Young Lioness Program did have some promising prospects and definitely they would move on to handle great things in the coming years after graduating which is what Sarabeth and Jessie strived for. One wrestler in particular she heard a lot about is Sheila Chihara. She heard how scatterbrained the Aussie could be, but even if her first few matches were rough losses for her, she made up for it by taking on a TLC Match, a match that was extremely dangerous and could end careers on just one mistake alone.

Sheila even won that match and she heard on Twitter that Sheila had a few more TLC wins under her belt before coming to LAW presumably in her backyard wrestling days. That’s a challenge Sarabeth was going for. Breaking the Aussie’s streak would bring attention to her quickly. For Sarabeth, she’s had a few extreme matches herself ranging from Tables to Kendo Stick on a Pole to Last Woman Standing to even Inferno. She lost only two of those matches and won a majority of them making her a few fans in the process. That definitely made her a force to be reckoned with and she was now determined to challenge Sheila.

For now though, Sarabeth kept up running the ropes with Alania building up muscles in her legs and even got a little showy doing a handspring off the west ropes before performing two backflips landing on her two feet while leaning on the east ropes. It was hard not to show off as it was in her blood. Probably from her unknown real father to boot.

"That was cute. Right now if its not functional we aren't doing it. Do you see a crowd? If so then you may need a different type of help than I can provide." Alaina said, continuing to run. The fact that Sarabeth wasn't struggling to go was a good sign, but women as inexperienced as her needed to focus. A lot of the young women felt like they were owed something. Alaina was here to take sure Sarabeth absolutely knew that wasn't the case. Alaina kept going and even picked up speed slightly. They were getting to the end and it was time for a little harder burn the last few minutes.

Sarabeth blushed as Alania made a remark about her showing off to a nonexistent crowd and shook her head getting herself back in the game. She couldn’t help it sometimes when her whole gimmick involved getting a little ahead of herself. Sarabeth did nickname herself “The Cuckoo Clock” on the Arkansas indies and the crowd gave her their full support when she showed up to promotions around the state. Then again, she can’t get ahead of herself too much, because she had very little experience in wrestling besides normal matches, tag team matches with Jessie, and hardcore matches. Sarabeth ran the ropes faster and faster aiming to push herself in these last few laps getting her legs ready for when she sparred Alania.

They were down to the final minute and Sarabeth didn't look tired. Alaina was quite impressed. She was tired herself but pushed herself to keep going. Soon enough the 15 minute mark came and Alaina bounced off the ropes, using her arms to hook around the top rope. "Time!" Alaina shouted as she waited for Sarabeth to stop. The amazon walked to the middle of the ring and looked over at her. "How are you feeling?" Alaina asked, looking ready to keep going herself.

After giving Sarabeth a minute she held her hands up. "Ok we are going to grapple and this is all about holds and trying to save your own energy while sapping your opponent. I am not going to put you in holds but if you put me in something I will be trying to escape." Alaina said as she was in position holding her hands out to lock up.

Running the ropes was nothing new to Sarabeth and her legs only grew stronger the more she ran. Being a lot younger, smaller, and lighter had it’s perks as well so she could keep herself going for hours if that’s what it took. However, Alania called for time and Sarabeth mimicked her hooking her arms around the top rope to stop herself as she regrouped with the Amazon in the middle. She smirked with her hands on her hips.

“I’d say I’m looking pretty spiffy. Not nearly as tired as I thought so I’m making progress in these calfs, ” Sarabeth replied as she picked up her left leg punching her leg muscle.

Sarabeth then listened intently to Alania explain their grappling section and knew this is where trouble was gonna start. It’s a heavyweight versus a lowly middleweight so she’s gotta have her thoughts on which holds are useful. Sarabeth grabbed onto Alania’s massive hands in order to lock up before trying to hook Alania’s left arm behind her in order to wrench on it hard!

Alaina felt Sarabeth lock in a hammerlock and she nodded. "Good, a good start. I know a couple ways out of this though.... what do you think I would do to counter?" Alaina asked, wondering what Sarabeth thought the most likely counter could be. Alaina had three in mind immediately herself but she wanted to see where Sarabeths mind was at before she took action.

“A variety of ways, really. You could reverse me into your own hammerlock or a front facelock or even a side headlock. I would guess your most believable reversal is into a front facelock and try to hunker me down in order to prevent a counter of the counter. Then again, being as strong as you are, it could be as simple as you’re throwing me over your back with your strength since I’m so light,” Sarabeth answered.

Good god, she definitely picked up on her sports talk from her adoptive father. Hunter knew the ins and outs of wrestling and every training session was a new educational experience for Sarabeth. Sarabeth hated to sound like a total nerd especially on wrestling of all things, but she knew Alania expected her to know her stuff. Sarabeth would wrench on the hammerlock in order to make it seem effective and tried dropping down to lift one of Alania’s massive legs to trip her up!

"Big wrestlers like to show off power so a twist around while holding you and pulling you into a clothesline is a favorite of mine." Alaina said. "But I am not going that route here. Instead there is another way that smaller wrestlers can and I like this method too. It is the snampare into a reverse chin lock." Alaina said, reaching back to grab the hair of Sarabeth, snapmaring her in front of Alaina as Alaina jammed her shin against Sarahbeths's back while reaching in front of her chin to pull back! Alaina barely pulled back but kept her grip like iron to show how secure her hold was. "You are not gonna power your way out against this, and if you do anything to stand or try to reverse things its telegraphed so I can abandon the hold and shove you away first."

Sarabeth yelped as Alania flipped her over on her butt and got a good iron grip around her chin. Alania explained how there was barely a reverse out of here and even if Sarabeth escaped, she could just abandon the hold and shove Sarabeth away. They broke as Sarabeth got back up curling out her arms looking to circle Alania. This time, instead of a transitional lockup, Sarabeth went after the other arm twisting it behind Alania’s back again, but looked for a combo with this hold. Sarabeth ducked down trying to trip Alania off her feet to grab her left leg in order to cinch in a simple leg lock!

“How’s this, teach? Ready to submit?” Sarabeth asked with a little cocky tease even though this was just a training exercise.

Alaina was caught off guard falling to the mat with her arm and leg stuck! She grunted and groaned using her free leg to try to push rolling them over. Her leg would still be stuck but the roll would help her free her arm. "Depending on how much you like getting hit this could be a bad spot." Alaina said as she had her leg stuck but her arms free and able to strike. She was less interesting in hammering at Sarabeth and wanting to see if she would adjust in a way Alaina couldn't counter, stick out the leg lock, or abandon the hold.
