Okay, let's call it a day.
Please make sure to stretch on your own later.

Sounds good. Nice work, everyone!

Whew... Another exhausting day...

All the more reason to stretch well.

She's right. It's important for us to take good care of our bodies.

Definitely!

Oh, Miku, Luka...
I kinda want to keep working on that part we just did...

Sure, of course.
The part where we weren't quite in sync, right?

Oh, that part bothered me as well.

We'll be joining them to practice that part for a bit, MEIKO.

Okay, have fun♪

Hey, KAITO.
Maybe we should keep working on our part too.

Right. Then, why don't we follow suit and start with some fine-tuning.

What do you plan on doing, MEIKO?

Hmm... Well...

Oh, MEIKO!
Sorry, there's actually something I need to ask you...

KAITO, I'll meet up with you guys after I talk to Airi.

Okay, see you then.

Sorry about this, MEIKO.

Hehe. It's okay. We were just about done practicing. What was it that you wanted to ask?

I'm in the middle of coming up with ideas for our training camp and was hoping that you could tell me more about how you guys trained.

Oh, I'd like to hear as well.

Me too! I've been practicing on my own in preparation for our solo show, so we can use what you guys did as reference!

Oh, in that case, I'd be more than happy to explain!

We started with some basic strength training drills, including sit-ups, push-ups, squats and some lat exercises.

After that, we did some running and worked on increasing our lung capacity by blowing up balloons♪

Eep...!
Just hearing that is making my arms and legs sore!

What happened to all that enthusiasm you had just a second ago, Minori?

B-But... It's so much harder than what I was expecting to hear...

By the way, how many sit-ups and such did you have everybody do?

At least 100.
And two sets of those if possible...

A-At least 100?!

If I did that, my abs would pop out and fly away somewhere!

That's a bit hard to imagine, but it might be fun to see that happen in real life...

What?!

Two sets if possible...
That sounds pretty difficult.

Yes, I think I can do 100, but two sets of those may be tough.

Wait a second...
Don't tell me you all can do 100 sit-ups...

Yes.
Of course.

Guh... About thirty's my limit...

That's perfectly okay, Minori. There's no need to feel bad.

I know 100 is a big number, but it's not actually about quantity.

Huh?

Hehe. The goal isn't to do 100 sit-ups.

The goal is to work up the courage to push yourself to and beyond your limit.

Courage...?

Of course, it's important to complete the reps you set for yourself as you train.

However, that doesn't mean you have to do everything on your first try. In time, as that courage within you grows, you'll be able to reach those numbers.

So, your first goal will be to actually try pushing yourself to your limit.

Okay...!
Thank you, MEIKO.

You're welcome♪

Do you think you'll be able to apply this to your training camp, Airi?

Yeah! Thanks a bunch, MEIKO!

Not just for all these training ideas, but for your reasoning too!

Hehe. I'm glad I could help.

If there's anything else you need, please feel free to stop in and ask.

Really? Then, I might just take you up on that.
