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.

New Years is the best holiday. I'm glad this place finally let us celebrate one right.

As for a workout routine, I do a set of sit ups and pushups, then go for a morning jog. Keeps me in pretty good shape.

I'm not familiar with the right and wrong ways to celebrate local holidays. These are my first.

I do much the same, but 'pretty good shape' isn't good enough. I've become a trapeze acrobat.

I'm just picky since we celebrate it differently in my homeland than most seem to. Did you enjoy it though?

A trapeze acrobat... oh, wow. Did you join that circus I've heard be mentioned from time to time?

God, celebrating holidays is complex! But I did.

And I did. Envy and I have an acrobatics act.

Not overly complex. It's just different countries celebrate things a little different from each other. There aren't many important holidays so you won't have to worry about it for a while.

And that's quite an occupation. Cycling might be good at building up the strength in your legs. You might want to do that at a gym though since the weather isn't good for riding bikes.

That's what I've been told - we're through most of them.

Cycling? Hmm, I never thought of that. I am going to the gym, though. And when the season turns...

[majorcrotchgrab]

At least I hope so. I could be completely wrong though since this place seems to run on Western holidays. I'd never heard of Halloween or Christmas prior to coming here.

Swimming may also be good for strengthening your arms. Obviously you'll need to do that indoors.

[a_sin_for_him]

We had similar holidays, but not the same, from what I understand. I didn't pay much attention back home.

The weather certainly doesn't make it easy, does it?

[majorcrotchgrab]

Understandable.

And as much as I like winter, it really doesn't. There's a gym here in Goldenrod though - not the pokemon kind. It's a nice place and doesn't cost too much for membership.
