The new year certainly was pleasant, wasn't it? I think I enjoy this world's holidays.

[Lust's curled up in her living room on the couch, tucked under a blanket with a mug of cocoa and her 'gear propped up on the coffee table in front of her. Her recently hatched shiny Houndour is half across her lap.]

But now that the holiday has passed, I had a query for those who have formalized exercising routines. I've found myself needing to keep fit not simply for aesthetic reasons, but due to a professional need for peak physical condition. Flexibility, muscle strength, physical reaction time...

I've never had to work to keep up with those things before and the sooner I get some formal discipline in my routine, the better. I'd appreciate any advice or specific schools of practice that could be recommended.

Muscle strength and flexibility, primarily. I have both, but I don't want them deteriorating. And there's always room for improvement.

_{[Ralph nods.]}

I gotcha. You'll wanna set aside some time every day but don't do the same routine every day.

An hour a day, from my understanding, at least. I don't shy from hard work.

What sort of exercises should I be looking into, to compose the routines in the first place? I'm afraid I've never really paid attention to this sort of thing before.

You're still on board with Joker and the rest of us, right? Try thinkin' about what you do in your act and try to set up something around it.

I'm the strong man, right? I don't gotta do all those fancy flips and bends and trust me, nobody wants to see that, so I just focus on my arms and legs. You'll probably want...mmm...a lot of stretches. Curls, things for your--a--middle? I don't know the fancy words for all those musc--BOSSY!

_{[He breaks away from their conversation to yell at his Sandshrew.]}

Don't eat that! Sorry...

Mmhmm, that's precisely why I need to keep up with my physical strengths.

Abdomen and core muscles, I assume you mean. I do crunches already, and push ups, as well as light stretching. I just worry about doing this body damage by stretching incorrectly.

[She chuckles faintly.]

Quite alright, I have an unapologetic eater on my own team.

She's not even hungry, she just wants it because it belongs to Sonic. Anyhow, sounds like you've already got a good idea of what you need! I'm not a professional...well not that kinda professional, but I say if it feels right, do it!
