Gym, before workshops

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

After yesterday's clinic session, Cameron was feeling on top of things. He was working through his drills with enthusiasm, giving the punching bag a run for his money. You know, if punching bags actually ran or had money.

((Open! Thread between V and Cam locked omg.))

Veronica showed up in a pretty good mood.

"Morning! What are you teaching me today?"

"Morning," Cameron stopped mid-drill and turned to face her. "I thought it was time to get to the ass kicking part."

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

"But I left my taser at home," Veronica joked.

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

"You won't need a taser after this," Cameron promised and hopped on his feet. "I'm gonna sound like Callisto now, but you should take off your shoes."

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

"Okay," Veronica shrugged, slipping off her sneakers. "You're not stealing them, are you?"

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

"Yes, haven't I told you about my shoe fetish?" Cameron deadpanned as he toed off his own shoes and kicked them to the side before moving on the mat.

Veronica looked at Cameron's feet and looked at her shoes. "Good luck, man," she said, following him to the mat.

"Great, now my feet are going to have a complex about being too big," Cameron sighed and shook his head.

"Okay, we're gonna start with a front kick and I want you to watch what I'm doing first before you try it yourself. I'll go slow."

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

"Okay," Veronica said.

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

"Okay, four steps in this one," he said as he slowly showed her the kick. "Chamber. Extend. Recoil and place it back on the ground."

[marsheadtilt.livejournal.com]

"Okay," Veronica said, attempting to copy his motions.

She was trying to go slow and ended up losing her balance and almost toppling over though.

Kawalsky showed up some time later and headed for the weights.

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

"Yo, roomie!" Cameron greeted.

[kawalsky.livejournal.com]

"Yo," Kawalsky called back. "You were up early."

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

"Yeah. I'm teaching Veronica on Tuesday and Thursday so if I want to get in a decent work out before class, I need to get up earlier," Cameron explained as he started up his drills again.

"Your PT instructor's gonna love you." He picked up the dumbbells and started using them. "They get plenty of cadets who are really smart, but need some real physical training. S'always good to get on the PT instructor's good side."

"Less chance of getting shouted at?" Cameron grinned.

[kawalsky.livejournal.com]

"Pfft, you're gonna get yelled at no matter what. Less chance of being made to do the obstacle course again. And again. And again."

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

"Yeah. I imagine I'm going to have to intensify my training for the physical tests come Fall," Cameron said.

[kawalsky.livejournal.com]

"You'll get there," Kawalsky assured him. "Build up to it, don't burn out and it'll be fine."

[cameronmitchell.livejournal.com]

"I plan to," Cameron nodded. "So how's it been going?"

[once-a-king.livejournal.com]

Peter nodded to Kawalsky. "Morning."

[kawalsky.livejournal.com]

"Morning!" Kawalsky called back and kept on with his sit-up routine.

After a quick trip to the woods to clear out things from yesterday, Peter was completely awake and ready for the gym. He was a bit disappointed the gun range with the salle wasn't open this early, but he decided to keep focusing on more hand to hand combat instead of just swordwork. With that in mind, he entered the gym, looking over to see if the heavy bag was free.

Cameron had moved on to the weight lifting machines now and he gave a nod at Peter as he entered. "Morning."
