"Run faster!" Antonia ordered Arachne, who was currently on the treadmill. Much for Arachne's annoyance, Antonia proceeded to press the machine's up buttons, in order to max out both the treadmill's incline and movement speed. "HeyHeyHey!" Arachne complained, nearly getting sent off the machine. But she managed to adjust her running accordingly and stabilize herself while grumbling under her breath.
Antonia then went to check on Melony, who was on the Inclined Leg Press. Without a word, Antonia would causally begin adding more weight mid-rep, maxing out the amount of weight that could be on the machine. "Umm... Yes dear...?" Melony begun, before grunting and focusing all her attention on pressing against the now ultra heavy weight, her muscular thighs bulging in her pink leggings even more.
Ms. Aunt then picked up a bosu ball, before approaching Jasmine. The Mighty Monarch was working her massive glutes, by performing deep squats with an impressively heavy barbell. Antonia placed the bosu ball flat-side up on the floor. As soon as Jasmine took a break and put the weight down, the ant girl would would proceed to lift Ms. Cake up without warning, placing her down on the wobbly exercise equipment. "Huh?!" Jasmine exclaimed. Antonia would then lift up that same hefty barbell and throw it at her, forcing the empress to catch it and struggle stabilizing herself on the bosu ball! "Whooooaaaaaaaa...!"
"Stay on this while you squat." Antonia insisted, before checking up on Honie. The bee girl was doing bench presses with a maxed-out weight. Antonia would pull a lever on the workout bench Honie was on, causing it to suddenly change into an inclined position. "Buzz...?!" Though initially startled, Honie was able to adapt accordingly. Granted, it was the most reasonable of General Aunt's unrequested exercise changes. "This position will provide more of a challenge. You're welcome."
"Antonia!" Jasmine would call out, while pushing through the effort to do heavy squats on the bosu ball. "Why the FUDGE are YOU not working out!"
"I have concluded it would be more ideal to for me to focus on ensuring you all get the best workout as possible. Because, I already engaged in intense physical exercise this morning. And I sent a message in our group chat for everyone to do so with me, but nobody else arrived."
"That's because you set the workout time at 4 A.M, smart-ant!" Arachne protested from the still speeding treadmill.
"Hmmph. It's the time winners exercise. You don't become exceptional by doing things the same way as everyone else."
"But 'Tonia, considering all five of us tend to keep busy and two of us have an empire to run..." Melony chimed in, approaching the war general-themed nerd. "Perhaps you could propose a time that's a bit more...reasonable?"
"I DID NOT INSTRUCT YOU TO DEPART FROM THE LEG PRESS MACHINE, MEL."
"Antonia just wants to make sure we're all at our best. Haha." Honie buzzed, before also getting off her machine and placing her barbell down. "That being said, I do think a break is an order."
"Hmmmmmmm. A brief one, but very well." Antonia conceded. Melony sat down. Arachne turned off the treadmill. Jasmine threw her barbell off and kicked the bosu ball across the gym floor. Meanwhile, Honie would go off to the nearest water fountain. She took a breather and began taking note of the other hardworking gym-goers. And as it turned out, her gang wasn't the only particularly noteworthy group here!
