Start the liver experience with push-ups

After entering December, the average temperature in Tokyo continued to drop.

Especially during the coldest hours of dawn, a layer of mist would condense on the windows.

In the darkness, a piercing ringtone suddenly sounded.

Ding-ling-ling—ding-ling-ling—

Fang Cheng, huddled in his warm bed, opened his eyes, his gaze slightly dazed.

It was as if he had been abruptly pulled back to reality from a beautiful dream.

He reached out, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and yawned.

Hearing the alarm clock still ringing, he turned on the light, looked up, and glanced at the time.

5:01.

Fang Cheng's heart jolted, and his eyes instantly became clear.

Immediately, he threw off the warm quilt, got up, and turned off the alarm.

Then, he quickly put on his clothes and pants, slipped on his slippers, opened the bedroom door, and walked quickly to the bathroom.

Shua shua shua, the sound of the faucet turning on, and the movement of the toothbrush and towel soon followed.

After a few minutes of washing up.

Fang Cheng stretched his arms and walked to the balcony in the living room, pushing the tightly closed windows open to both sides.

The cold wind whistled, carrying freezing rain straight into his face.

Although it stung his skin, it also invigorated him.

Another day of self-discipline had begun.

On the dark, rainy street, only a small hotel was lit up with its red neon sign.

Fang Cheng enjoyed the tranquility that belonged only to him and said in a low voice:

"I'll do a set of squats first to warm up."

"Then I'll practice a few rounds of shadow boxing…"

After stretching the muscles in his hands, feet, and limbs, Fang Cheng faced the dawn outside the window, lifted his left leg, and bent his right knee.

During the process of squatting down, he could clearly feel the muscles of his entire thigh tensing, and even his waist and back core were in a state of being fully drawn like a bowstring.

Single-leg squats are hellish for ordinary people.

But for Fang Cheng now, it only took a little more effort than when he first practiced standard squats.

After doing 5 reps, he switched to his left leg.

After doing 10 reps, it counted as 1 set.

"That should be enough, the testosterone is already working…"

He threw a punch into the air and kicked his legs twice, carefully feeling the changes in his body.

His entire body seemed to be injected with vitality, completely breaking away from the sluggish state of early morning, and his emotions also began to become excited.

With the enhancement effect of "The Lone Wolf."

Squats are clearly the best warm-up exercise, without a doubt!

Fang Cheng stood in a relatively open area on the balcony, closed his fingers together and clenched his fists, and stepped forward and backward with his feet.

His eyes fixedly stared ahead, as if confronting a non-existent enemy.

Suddenly, his figure moved, closing the distance forward, and the arms in a guarding stance immediately exerted force.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh, continuous jumping steps, left and right straight punches, quickly striking the opponent's face and jaw.

Swish!

Immediately afterward, a front kick intercepted the opponent's counterattack, fiercely kicking their abdomen.

Pa!

As soon as his right foot landed, he instantly turned and stepped, circling to the opponent's weak side.

Twisting his waist and sending his hips, another high and fast whip kick was unleashed.

Soon, Fang Cheng's forehead was slightly sweaty.

Despite wearing only thin underwear and a jacket, the biting cold could no longer invade his body.

The rapid flow of blood quickly warmed his whole body, putting him in a fighting state.

The movements of his fists and feet also changed from being slightly stiff to becoming more and more stretched, coordinated, relaxed, and free.

The sound of the air being broken with each punch and kick could prove the fullness of the force.

The four major techniques of Sanshou: kicking, punching, wrestling, and grappling.

Fang Cheng's current boxing and leg techniques are enough to be considered at an entry-level.

Therefore, he began to try to connect the movements of his fists and feet, practicing combination techniques that were more suitable for actual combat.

If he were to return to the scene in the hospital and confront Yellow Hair again.

Fang Cheng thought to himself that he wouldn't need to use the Iron Fist special effect; just a feint and a high sweeping kick would be enough to KO the opponent.

Even if the opponent was holding a folding knife, could his arms be longer than his legs?

Half an hour later.

[You have practiced shadow boxing and gained some understanding, Boxing skill experience +10]

Looking at the panel prompt information, Fang Cheng's eyes showed relief, but also some dissatisfaction.

It's a pity… shadow boxing practice can only increase the experience of one skill for now.

Having expert-level boxing skills made it easier for Fang Cheng to learn other martial arts.

In just three or four days, after watching about ten lessons.

He successfully mastered the stances, footwork, boxing, and kicking techniques that are the basics of Sanshou.

If he wanted to completely unlock this new skill, then he would also have to master wrestling and grappling to make up for his shortcomings.

It's just that these two techniques are very practical, and without someone to practice with, he can't get started just by imitating.

He couldn't just fall on his head for fun, right?

Therefore, Fang Cheng did not add wrestling and grappling movements to his shadow boxing practice.

"Perhaps… I can apply to be a sparring partner now."

In the darkness, Fang Cheng's eyes were bright as he looked at the attributes displayed on the panel.

After half an hour of shadow boxing, he tallied the exercise effects.

Constitution increased by 0.02, Strength increased by 0.01, Agility increased by 0.006.

Among them, although the increase in Agility attribute was slightly slower, the progress bar had also reached 94%.

The improvement in exercise efficiency from "The Lone Wolf" effect was already evident.

And with continuous accumulation, the strong get stronger, which will inevitably form a snowballing "Matthew effect."

Maybe one day…

He could really break through the limits of the human body with pure physical exercise alone, reaching the extraordinary realm he imagined.

Seeing this, Fang Cheng restrained his thoughts, and his gaze became calm again.

Strictly speaking, shadow boxing is also a warm-up exercise to move his muscles and bones.

The most important part of the morning exercise is still physical training.

Next up is a more intense level of self-discipline!

100 folding knife push-ups.

100 tiger pounce push-ups.

200 single-leg squats.

300 supine straight leg raises.

… … … … … … … … … … … …

"Huha!"

"Huha!"

The latest novels are first published on Liu 9 Shu Ba!

Inside the training hall, the sound of students kicking and punching sandbags could be heard from time to time.

There were no classes scheduled for the Sanshou department this morning, and there was only one private lesson and one group class in the afternoon.

Fang Cheng could be said to be a little bored.

In the previous class, the coach talked about the skill application and key points of fist-leg combinations and fist-wrestling combinations.

This class was basically the students practicing kicking the sandbags themselves, and the coach would point out a few places where the movements were not clean enough.

The core techniques of Sanshou are legwork and wrestling, which have always had a higher proportion of scoring in competitions.

As the saying goes, hands are two doors, but legs are what hit people; punches account for 30%, while kicks account for 70%.

The problem Fang Cheng is facing now is not a specific technical problem.

But he can't find anyone to practice with.

Let alone actual combat, he doesn't even have a sparring partner, so how can he truly master the skills?

Sometimes, Fang Cheng really has an impulse.

He wants to grab a thug on the street that he doesn't like and beat him up to test his skills.

5:30.

The last class ended.

It was still early before get off work, so Fang Cheng started cleaning up the venue in advance.

After finishing his work, he saw Chen Xiaohai standing alone in the smoking area, leisurely smoking a cigarette.

His eyes flashed slightly, so he walked over.

"What?!"

Chen Xiaohai looked at Fang Cheng with a surprised expression.

That expression seemed to be revealing his inner thoughts: I was just saying it casually, but you're really impolite to come to me when you have something to do.

Fang Cheng came to Chen Xiaohai to ask him about how to become a sparring partner.

As for the excuse, it was readily available: his grandfather was sick, his family was short of money, and he urgently needed to earn some extra money.

Chen Xiaohai was stunned for a long time before stammering:

"Acheng, the sparring partner business is not easy to do, the club is very strict…"

Indeed.

Sparring partners earn a lot of money. Assuming the minimum hourly wage is 500 yuan, two sessions a day would bring in 30,000 yuan a month.

Compared to the average white-collar worker's salary of less than 4,000 yuan per month, it can be said to be very attractive.

However, this job is not something anyone can do if they want to.

Although it is a temporary job, the club still needs to bear the relevant medical risks, so the assessment is very strict.

If you want to be a professional boxer, you just pay the money. Whether you succeed or not is another matter, and at most it will affect the club's performance and reputation.

If you want to be a sparring partner, in some ways it can be said to be more difficult than being a boxer.

The primary condition is that you must be strong and sturdy enough to withstand a beating.

Secondly, you must have practiced boxing and have some technical knowledge.

Finally, you must be someone the club knows well and be approved by both the personnel department and the coaching department.

Therefore, many sparring partners are retired professional athletes who are familiar with each other.

Or amateur boxers who came out of the club but didn't make it to the competition.

Fang Cheng also knew a little about these situations, so he said sincerely:

"That's why I came to bother Brother Hai to see if you have any way?"

"This…"

Chen Xiaohai's face looked very complicated.

He had already boasted, so he couldn't slap himself in the face, right?

Fang Cheng waited quietly.

Originally, he could also go to Xu Maocai for help, but being a sparring partner would conflict with his job after all.

The other party might make excuses to refuse, and Fang Cheng was too embarrassed to say it.

Chen Xiaohai pondered for a moment, then suddenly his eyes lit up:

"There is a way, but I'm afraid you'll misunderstand."

"Our Karate department just got a Dongying (Japanese) athlete who was banned from the competition. That bastard hits hard and has injured several people in a row. Now no one dares to take his job."

"But the club is still supporting this guy because he pays a lot of money!"

Speaking of this, Chen Xiaohai looked up at Fang Cheng.

"Why don't you go to the personnel department to apply tomorrow and see if they'll try. They've been recruiting people recently, and if they can't find suitable candidates, they might relax the conditions."

"It's just that it's easy to get injured as a sparring partner. You'd better think carefully…"

Fang Cheng pondered for a while after hearing this and asked:

"Does Karate also have wrestling and grappling techniques?"

Chen Xiaohai was stunned for a moment and replied: "Yes."

Fang Cheng nodded and then said with a smile: "Thank you, Brother Hai."

There is definitely a risk of injury in being a sparring partner.

But what can you do in this world that ensures no risk?

His eyes were bright as he looked at the skills displayed on the panel.

[Leg Raises lv0 (83/100)]

He decided to increase the intensity for himself to slightly speed up the slow progress bar.

It should be much safer to do this after the leg raise skill successfully advances to lv1 and he has attribute points to gain.
