O.R. Training session 1

[O.R.]

Sunday, May, 23
8:00 A.M.

Owen Richards, having already gotten a decent start on the day, walks down the corridors of The Solid Core Academy. Still hyped from his regular work out, and knowing he had training scheduled for the day, he heads down to the ground floor of the Academy and approaches the training hall. Owen pushes the swinging door to the hall open and walks into the room, he then takes a quick look around admiring the set up of the room before walking towards the ring in the middle and entering where he awaits the arrival of Lee Carter.

Lee Carter comes strolling through the corridor into the main training area with a duffel bag in his hand. He sees Owen Richards in the ring doing some basic stretches before. Owen sees his trainer come in as both men nod a greeting to each other. Lee walks to the ring and drops his bag on the outside, climbing onto the ring apron.

Lee:
Owen, you ready for some training?

Owen nods his head as he finishes off his stretches.

Lee:
Alright, let's get started with something easy. Take a bump for me.

Owen follows his instructors instructions, positioning himself in the middle of the ring, and quickly throwing his body backwards, slamming himself to the mat. Lee nods with a small grin before extending his hand to help Owen get to his feet.

Lee:
Good, good. Being a little faster wouldn't hurt, but that was good enough.

Lee walks around the ring a little bit thinking, finally stopping back where he started.

Lee:
Run the ropes for me... Ten times should do the trick.

Once again Owen nods before taking off towards the ropes. He hits the first set and rebounds with more speed. Lee watches his student run his laps, and just as Own hits the ropes for his last time and stops in the middle of the ring, panting a little bit. Lee climbs out of the ring and goes into a side room filled with different equipment. He emerges with aerobic step boards. He rests them on the ring apron and rolls into the ring himself. He sets them up parallel to each other, a few feet apart.

Lee:
I want you to do the same thing, only you'll be jumping over these.

Lee steps out onto the apron to give Owen room.

[O.R.]

Owen looks a little confused, but does as he is instructed to do. He backs up against the ropes, takes off, leaps over the first pad, and the second pad, and makes it to the other side of the ring.

Lee: Ok good, only nine to go Owen. Show me some speed.

Owen, encouraged by his trainers support, rushes back to the other side of the ring, clearing both of the pads with ease in the process. Lee Carter watches on as Owen goes back and forth between the ropes, at one point Owen narrowly avoids getting tripped up on one of the pads and stops on the other side of the ring in an attempt to gather himself.

Lee: Almost missed that one, these won't always be pads laying here Mr. Richards. But you did well, you DID manage to get across, now finish up so we can move on.

Owen: Yes sir!

Owen takes a couple of quick breaths and finishes up the exercise. Lee, finished with the pads for now, takes them and scoots them out of the ring with his foot. He then leans himself back in the corner and looks on at Owen.

Lee: Alright, good. NOW, next we are going to practice chops. Go slowly at first, once you think you've gotten the form down pick up the speed gradually stopping at about half speed. Got it?

Owen: Got it Mr. Carter.

Owen walks over to Lee Carter sizes him up and almost in slow motion slices through the air with his hand. Owen lightly touches Lee Carter's chest with the ridge of his hand and follows through the shot, Lee nods and Owen repeats this going relatively the same speed. Owen, feeling comfortable with his form, picks up the speed a little, getting no complaints from Lee Carter he picks up the speed again, and again, and again until he hits the desired tempo.
