--- This was something out of the norm for Cereza. She wasn't one to spend in the school after hours. There were other things she had to do or just did in general. So what brought her to the school gym after hours this late afternoon? Curiosity and boredom. Today she had decided to just roam around and scope things out. Get a better feel of the school and all that jazz. The stroll would actually be a little more of a jog really. Her backpack strapped snugly to avoid to mention movement while she jogged. Loose fitted sweats were her choice attire paired with some sneakers and a white top. Her infamous white fedora sat idly on her head as she ran with weights strapped at her wrist, ankles and waist. If she was going to train here for one day she was gonna do it right. Train her way. Her ipod was strapped to her right arm while a pair of bluetooth sports headphones played tunes as she went along. Eventually she would make it to the gym which to her mild surprise was empty.
"Huh. Go figure."
--- Empty, not empty it was of no matter really. Shrugging it off Cereza took a gander noting everything within eye sight. She'd walk over and drop her bag off by a near by wall. Cracking her neck she'd stretch again. Flexing her hands to make sure her fingers weren't stiff she would throw a right jab followed by a left twice just move her arms. As a tune played in her ears she had made her way to a hanging punching bag. Never removing the weights she would start a little routine her uncle had instilled in her. It wasn't the easiest at first but after doing it for so long Cereza had gotten much more proficient at it. Near the bag she would lower herself to the ground in a push up position but these weren't regular push ups she would be doing. She would start doing Spider Push Ups which required at the point of going down like a regular push up to lift a leg up bending at the knee naturally close to your elbow and back down. Alternating sides of course. These push ups were a little more tiring than the norm it not used to doing them but super effective. Cereza would do about 8 alternating each leg before popping herself up into a standing position, knees bent, arms up in a ready position to block or attack. Without hesitation she would unleash a combination of hand strikes before dropping back down and repeating the set of Spider Push ups. Again after 8 popping up and repeating but her rhythm and pattern would constantly change. Sometimes she would throw a knee or kick. Hits would remain soft or hard or a combination of both. Without being bothered she probably would continue for awhile at least.

Things were shifting back to normal. Well. As normal as they possibly could be, given Riot and the surrounding circumstances. Instead of heading home directly after school had ended, Pheebs opted to stay to utilize both library and gym, and Bastion and Yumi, naturally, both stayed as well. They were back in the library, and Bee was making a beeline for the gym.
Saya was probably on patrol. Probably. She wasn't entirely sure. Either way, she left her friend alone for now. Even doing things in the library and gym meant breaking up the rather restrictive options she had.
Oh! Oh, oh! But someone was already here and—wait what was she doing? Ohhhh. That looked like a good way to be sore the next day, if she ever saw one! Awesome!
With an unrestricted grin, Pheebs bounced lightly in place a moment, her feet not leaving the floor and thus making minimal sound. She'd find a skipping rope after, she decided. Right now she wanted to try that!
Gently setting her bag to the side and securing her fingerless gloves, Phoebe lightly dropped into a crouch and moved into position to begin mimicking the motions the unknown student was doing...and was immediately given the satisfaction of feeling the pull of muscle with this new way of doing push ups.
'Ah~ Excellent. This is fantastic!'
Now the challenge was seeing how long she could continue the eight reps she had counted before, popping up to her feet and throwing a few quick jabs before dropping down again!

--- When Cereza trained she usually remained in her bubble. The outside world was only noticed when she made a choice to let it in. For now it wasn't that time as she would continue her reps but they had certainly increased after the first three times. Each time they went up by two. Again none of this was for someone just starting this regiment. It took time and practice. Eight was the low point. It was one it was increased and slightly sped up is where the burn was further felt. Her pattern of getting up would alter from the simple quick pop up when the knee came up in the spider push up that she would roll either left or right and then pop up and take shots against the bag. It would be in the second roll she would have noticed a girl, another student obviously; trying to mimic what Cereza had started.
~Probably not the brightest idea.~
--- The song had long faded when Cereza got up with little beads of sweat dabbed on her forehead. She looked at the girl for a moment before removing her headphones. She completely ignored any other company. Cereza wasn't the fondest of people mimicking her regiments if they weren't gonna do it right or commit. Not saying the girl wasn't exactly doing it right but it was lacking and Cereza would make sure to point it out.
"Ya know for one I wouldn't try that if you didn't warm up right before. Two you're not exactly doing it right."
--- Cereza would fold her arms waiting for the girls response if she had one. She really didn't care how she sounded she was just stating a fact. If the girl inquired then Cereza would further explain herself. Usually she wasn't keen on sharing especially personal training regiments but she did this in public and someone was trying to copy. They might as well do it right if they were going to say they got it from her.

The other thing her unwitting exercise mentor would note was the brunette wasn't burning quickly through the reps, but keeping her motions very deliberate as she worked through the new, added motions. The only time speed was added was when she popped up to her feet. Parts of it were very much like burpees, after all. And she used both to help warm up, frequently. She occasionally glanced up to try and fine-tune her technique...and one of those times the girl wasn't there—
But speaking to her! Oh!
With an "Eep!" of surprise, Phoebe hopped and pulled both her feet underneath herself to stay in a crouch and look up. She blushed a little. Though the girl was certainly bursque, Pheebs remained sunny, if a little embarrassed.
"Oh! Uhm! Well, I jogged here. And I normally warm up with things like push ups and burpees~ AndIdidn'twanttobeacreeperandhoveraroundyoutogetabetterlook! They looked really fun, though! How do I improve~? Are you up to sharing?"
She gave Cereza a winning smile, getting over her embarrassment to shower her with genuine enthusiasm. The prospect of bettering what she was doing to make the exercise better without straining or injuring herself was exciting!
