Daily Life and Strength Training

Daily Life and Strength Training

After returning home, Chen Sheng took a shower and went straight to bed for a nap.

By the time he woke up again, the sun had already set.

Gurgle~ His stomach sent out a signal of hunger at just the right moment.

Chen Sheng immediately got up and headed to the kitchen, where he began preparing the food he had bought that morning.

Of course, only part of it.

He bought two days' worth of ingredients at once so he would not have to make a trip to the market every day.

As for freshness and such...

Chen Sheng was not particularly picky about food.

As long as it filled his stomach, that was enough.

An hour later.

When the rice cooker chimed, Chen Sheng, already starving, sprang off the sofa and jogged into the kitchen.

Corn Rib Soup, Braised Pork, Casserole Beef, and Stir-fried Eggs with Fungus.

Along with a large bowl of rice.

That was Chen Sheng's dinner.

After eating, Chen Sheng continued sitting around and watching TV.

Only when the fullness in his stomach gradually faded did he slowly get up, clean up the aftermath of dinner, and toss his clothes into the washing machine.

Arriving at the balcony, Chen Sheng pulled out his phone.

Yesterday's training plan had ultimately only amounted to thirty-four Push-ups, twenty-three Sit-ups, and fifty Squats.

After recording it on his phone, he immediately began tonight's training.

He bent down and got into a push-up position. "Start!"

Time slipped by quietly as he trained.

Chen Sheng lay on the ground, gasping for breath.

Push-ups: seventy.

Sit-ups: sixty.

He met his goal for Squats, completing a full hundred.

His Strength attribute increased by another 0.02. With Chen Sheng's current physical condition, he originally should not have been able to do that many.

Relying on the recovery effect brought by his rising attributes, he had barely managed to complete more than half of the training progress after another half hour.

After resting enough, Chen Sheng saw that it was nearly bedtime. He got up from the floor and headed for the bathroom.

After showering, he went straight to bed.

The next day.

Chen Sheng walked out of his room with a yawn.

After washing up, he went to the kitchen to make himself breakfast.

He took out six slices of Whole Wheat Toast, spread them evenly with Peanut Butter, and topped them with banana slices.

Two bottles of milk, plus two boiled eggs.

A simple breakfast was ready just like that.

Brother Qiang had been the one to tell Chen Sheng about the sandwich recipe.

He had said that while it looked simple, it was high in calories and packed with nutrition.

It suited Chen Sheng well.

Half an hour later.

After tidying up the kitchen, Chen Sheng headed straight out, ready to begin his morning run.

Fifty minutes later.

Having run six kilometers, Chen Sheng sat by the roadside, drinking water as he looked at his panel.

Strength: 0.92

Agility: 0.92

Constitution: 0.98

Skill Points: 0.15

By now, Chen Sheng could run two-thirds of the route in one go.

His Constitution attribute had also increased by 0.02. Though he had been completely exhausted just moments ago, he could already feel his stamina gradually recovering.

Once he ran again at the gym, Chen Sheng's stamina would enter the range of an ordinary person's.

At that thought,

Chen Sheng immediately got up and headed toward the gym with an excited look on his face.

Half an hour later.

He successfully arrived downstairs from the gym.

Since he had left later today, the gym was already open.

The moment Chen Sheng entered the gym, he ran into the yellow-haired A Wei picking up a wristband at the front desk.

When A Wei saw Chen Sheng, he instinctively curled his lip, turned his head away, and headed inside.

"Psycho."

Chen Sheng gave his assessment, then collected a wristband from the receptionist as well.

After putting away his belongings.

Chen Sheng went over to the treadmills and began warming up.

As expected, A Wei and Coach Jack were there again, standing not far away and speaking in low voices.

"A Wei, don't forget you owe me a coffee."

Coach Jack said with a grin.

"No problem."

A Wei answered, then turned his head and glared through gritted teeth at Chen Sheng beside the treadmill.

Chen Sheng did not see his expression.

Even if he had, he probably would not have cared.

He had once believed that once people entered society, most of them would think more maturely.

But that was not the case.

Stupidity was not divided by gender or age.

After several years of working outside, Chen Sheng had learned that deeply.

Before long.

A Wei stepped onto the treadmill beside Chen Sheng's, and the two began running at the same time.

With the experience from his morning run, Chen Sheng decided to run for about the same amount of time this time as well. That would be just enough to raise his Constitution attribute twice.

Therefore,

When A Wei got off the treadmill, panting heavily, and saw that Chen Sheng still had no intention of stopping.

His eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.

Was this guy some kind of monster, or had he been pretending before?

Perhaps sensing A Wei's gaze, Chen Sheng turned his head and gave him a calm glance, without paying him much attention.

Mocking someone once was enough.

Provoking them every day would only make him seem petty.

However,

People's thoughts did not always align.

In A Wei's eyes, Chen Sheng's glance was an act of provocation.

Especially that arrogant, dismissive attitude.

It enraged A Wei so much that his fists clenched instantly, and his face turned red.

What a smug little bastard.

It's just running. Look at how proud you are.

When it comes to strength training, you're still just as pathetic! At that moment, A Wei wanted nothing more than to drag Chen Sheng off the treadmill and beat him up.

Fortunately, remembering that the gym had surveillance cameras, he ultimately restrained himself, turned around, and walked straight toward the strength-training area.

As for Chen Sheng,

He only got off the treadmill after running for fifty minutes, when his Constitution attribute increased for the second time.

Chen Sheng

Strength: 0.92

Agility: 0.92

Constitution: 1

Skill Points: 0.17

Finally, one of his attributes had reached the level of an ordinary person. Chen Sheng's face was filled with excitement.

So much so that when he arrived at the strength-training area, Brother Qiang looked at him with a trace of confusion.

"Little Chen, what good news has you so happy today?"

"No, no."

Chen Sheng waved his hands repeatedly.

"My running performance improved again today, so I'm pretty happy."

"Oh?" Brother Qiang immediately became interested.

At the gym, the strength-training area and cardio area were separated.

Brother Qiang had always stayed in the strength-training area, so he had not paid much attention to Chen Sheng's running results before.

After Brother Qiang asked him a few questions,

Chen Sheng told him about the changes he had experienced over the past few days.

After all, although his improvement speed was fast, he was merely returning to the range of an ordinary person. He was not afraid of attracting too much attention.

As Brother Qiang listened to Chen Sheng's account, his reaction was no different from A Wei's. It took him a long while to recover from his shock.

"Not bad, not bad. You've got potential, kid!"

Brother Qiang laughed loudly and patted Chen Sheng on the back.

Chen Sheng could tell that Brother Qiang was genuinely happy about his progress.

Therefore,

Even though the smack made his back burn with pain, Chen Sheng still forced out a smile.

After chatting for a few more moments, the two began working out together.

This time, the moment Chen Sheng picked up the dumbbell, he noticed an obvious difference.

This 10-kilogram dumbbell seemed too light for him? With that thought, Chen Sheng put down the dumbbell in his hand and picked up a 15-kilogram one.

Only then did he feel that familiar heaviness.
