Training Regimen!
Thu Jun 22, 2017 10:36 am
A new student has risen from the abyss of the Mist Village, we all know him as Jai Huángjīnjiǎ. But he wishes to be known as Tenken like the legendary warrior from his favorite childhood tales. Jai's wish is to master the art of the ninja and of the sword. But there's one problem.
"Damn, I don't want to get out of this bed"
sighed Jai as he forced himself up and numbly got himself ready for his training. It was already noon and Jai hadn't done anything all day. He walked out of his house, thotting his training supplies on his back, which lays on the misty, forested outskirts of the village gates and walks to a near-by one-tree hill that only he goes to. Jai lays his heavy pack of training equipment on the ground next to a tree and starts to think of what he'll do today. "It's a drag that I have to do all this work to get stronger but I have to so that I can become a great warrior like Tenken.", said Jai loudly as he came up with a great idea. He decided to work on his agility and speed until he was speedier and quicker than all his peers and then begin to work on his jutsu after that. Agility is needed to defeat ninja and swordsmen alike. Jai was ready to become stronger so that he could one day surpass the status of the Legendary Seven Swordsmen of the Mist.
Surprisingly he initially sits down and pulls out his family ninjutsu book, that he got from his father as a gift for getting the rank of Genin. He begins to read about a family technique class called Step Methods. Step methods are used by swordsmen to move in quick while using a weapon, versus hand seals. Jai reads the training information elaborated on in the book. He closes the book and stands up and reaches in his pack again and pulls out two 20 pound leg weights. He begins to run. He runs three laps around the misty outskirts of the Mist Village. He ends up back at his training hill. He ,then, takes off his leg weights and sits them to the side and reaches in his pack again. This time he pulls out a 20 pound round weight and holds it vertically over his head. He, in this position, begin so do squats. After an hour, Jai has done just about 200 squats and his legs are already stinging. Only one more exercise. He lays on his back and puts the round weight on his feet. "Now, I have to for 200 of these leg expansions and I go home to go to sleep", said the lazy ninja as if he was working extremely hard. He begins to push the weights up with his legs, his back pressed against the ground. "30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 26, 37, 38, ...39, .....40!!!!!!!, .... 41!!!!!!!!!!!! BOOM!!
Jai dropped his legs, unable to move. The weights still weighting his extremities down. He couldn't believe he couldn't finish that simple task. Jai laid there for an hour, thinking about life, looking at the sky. It was an oddly sunny day in the Mist Village. Jai was tired. The lazy ninja called it a day to come back the next morning.
[Later that week]
"Down to business!"
Jai has been coming out to 'his training tree' every day for a week. He has seen growth in his time. Jai cracked his neck, molding a serious look about his face. This was something that wasn't regular. Jai was up and energetically moving. The lazy shinobi wasn't being so lazy today and for good reason. "Every ninja, nowadays knows the Body Flicker technique". Jai would be getting outran in every fight that he found himself in.
Getting beat up wasn't something Jai would enjoy so he resolved to go on and get serious for once and just learn the technique. Jai sat, thinking to himself, Okay, most ninja these days use the Shunshin through ninjutsu, wasting up chakra. Mugen smirked lightly, scratching his chin as he thought. I plan to just use this technique through physical prowess and save my energy. The lazy shinobi, finally stood yawning in uncomfortable discontentment. He really didnt feel like training but he had too.
Jai had already prepared 4 rocks and a large boulder to weigh himself down as he ran and trained. He tied 2 of the rocks to each wrist, the other two on his ankles finally placing the boulder on his back and tying it around his torso. This is crazy. Jai could hardly stand. His back swooped over and his legs shakingly bent, trying to stay on foot. Jai began to walk. He continued to train himself, deciding to run 10 miles with these rocks attached.
Jai shifted his body slowing, attempting to move forward. His walk turned into a slow, terribly shaky, wide footed waddle. His feet rising slowly, not a whole inch off the ground, treading about 3 feet forward before plummeting back to the ground, the next leg doing the same thing in the same, struggling manner. Somehow Jai had to become strong enough running with these stones attached to his body.
This method wasn't a nice one but it's the only way Jai could think of to get faster & stronger at the same time. Weighing down his body in such a manner would put his body in an never ending work out. Sweat rolling and muscles cringing, Jai continued to try to walk.
Thud,
Thud,
Thud
waddled Jai's feet, ever step falling faster. He wasn't going to last much longer at this rate. His muscles already hurt and it's only been 40 minutes. He wasn't going down that easily. He continued his fatally slow, failing effort.
Falling to his knees, his back buckled, slouching over his head planting right into the ground. He was down for the count. He couldn't move his arms or legs. He might as well been sleep. Jai's usual careless attitude was foiled through his frustration. A vein revealed itself on the right corner of his forehead as Jai's rushing anger appeared reached a boiling point. He wasn't about to be defeated by some damn rocks. He had ninja to overcome. Screaming in frustration, Jai pushed himself up quickly with his arms, rolling onto his feet, standing once again.
[2 days later]
After two days of waddling, struggling and falling, Jai had got the hang of his weighted apparel. At sunrise of the third day, Jai was already out doing push ups and squats with the stones attached. "495, 496". . . He was reaching the end of his squats, slowing at the end. "497". . . "498." Jai had already ran his 10 miles and this was the last thing he thought he needed to do to prove that he could move normally with these weights on.
"499". . . His arms felt like it was about the buckle, as the sweat rolled from every inch of his body. Jai had at least one more in him. He could be lazy any other time but he was going to make his slacking body do this one. One for his village. One for his family. And mostly definitely, one for himself. Jai could pull it off. Afer this, he could nap all he wanted to. Arms bending, building up momentum for his final blast of motion, thrusting back with all the throwing power capable. "5 0 0 !!", Jai shouted as he finally plummeted to the ground, finally able to lay down but not exactly the way he wanted to.
He untied the stones and boulder one by one, finally able to move freely. He swarmed and wiggled, around on the ground for a second before returning to his feet. For the last three days, Jai had not taken off the stone and thus his body was still compensating for the weight that he no longer bared. He began to jump around. I'm light as a feather. Jai jumped up exceedingly high, coming back down to the ground with a light thud, breathing out lightly.
"Time for sleep."

I really liked the narrative that you set up with this post. Approved for the stats but denied for the body flicker. It looks like you only mention body flicker once and just train your endurance the rest of the rest of the post.
