The buildup to his training was made almost anti-climactic by the ease in which Daniel was able to do anything Robby asked of him. They started slow with stretching, and then progressed on to lunges. Robby had him using 35-pound weights, and eventually increased them to fifty pounders, which Daniel still had no problem with. He knew he could do more but he figured he should continue with what Robby had given him and not overwork himself on the first day.

He tried to do as much as he could with his natural strength, but eventually couldn’t help but ease the process by taking over his unconscious brain. He did not want to back down from any challenge, and at this point controlling his body functions was becoming almost second nature, especially the ones he used frequently.

No matter what Robby threw at him, he was up for it. Whether it was on the bench press, squats, curls, leg-press, fly, or ab workouts – Daniel did however many reps with however much weight Robby asked of him without wearing down.

Occasionally Daniel would start to feel pain and tightness in his muscles, but he would compensate by allowing more oxygen to reach those areas. He could not always stop the pain however as even with his ability he could only provide so much oxygen to his muscles, but the pain was not about to slow him down. He would simply concentrate on other things and other areas of his mind until he completed that particular workout. The sense of accomplishment he felt from completing everything Robby asked of him was well worth any discomfort he may have experienced.

Daniel did appreciate having Robby’s guidance when it came to cardiovascular exercise because Robby had him spending more time on the bike than on the treadmill. This worked different muscles that Daniel hadn’t spent as much time on during his own workout routine. He could really feel the burn in his quads once he had completed a couple miles on the bike, but he knew that as long as he maintained his heart rate he could go as long and as hard as Robby wanted him to. There was nothing he couldn’t do.

When the three hour training session was all over and Robby handed Daniel a towel to wipe the sweat from his face, Daniel couldn’t help but ask, “How did I do?”

He hoped it didn’t come out to smarmy, but he was in all honesty fishing for compliments.

“After the first day, I’d say you’re ready for the advanced course,” Robby answered candidly.

“Ha!” Daniel shouted with a bit too much ego behind his response.

“Don’t get too cocky there friend,” Robby quickly responded. “I’ve worked with former Navy Seals at this place. A lot of guys walk in here ready for the advanced course.”

At first Daniel took Robby’s comeback as a bit of a blow to his newfound self-confidence, but then he came back around as he realized that he had just been put in the same category as the Seals.
