Getting those gains.

Who: Gladio and Open
When: Day 23
Where: Gym
What: Gladio is fed up of being limited. He's at the gym and slowly working on the arm that he hurt during the mission.
Warning: Shirtless Gladio. Not for the faint of heart!


All that was really left of his wound was a scar to add to the rest of his war wounds. Was it 100%? No. Did Gladio care? Hell no. He was done with it. He was done with the feeling of uselessness. He was done with the fussing and the worrying over every little thing he did. He was done with feeling so damn depressed he hadn't left his cabin in the last two days.

He got up that morning with renewed determination and the sling came off. It was such a damn relief. Immediately he started to feel better. So he took himself to the gym.

Of course he wasn't about to go and push himself and throw himself into his usual routine. He wasn't that stupid. A little rehabilitation would be needed to strengthen his arm. But he could do what he could to make himself feel better. And that's what he intended.

"They do say stretching is the best thing to start off with for any kind of training." It's why he made sure to do his before anything else he does. But Allen himself was continuing with his one arm push up's, feeling the full weight of his body thanks to the fact he tends to do them in a different way. Upright.

"I would normally be told to not do anything until I was fully recovered though, or at least to a point where I was at least capable of doing something." This also came from someone who did one of one fights while still recovering.

"Plus, you can focus on other areas that aren't where you got hurt."

"Yeah, well I'm told I'm stubborn." Gladio replied with a low laugh. He was sick and tired of sitting around doing nothing and being fussed at for doing nothing, because he was doing too much by doing nothing. He was slowly going insane. So yes, he was at the gym and yes he was going slowly start working on his shoulder, a little bit each day.

"Won't push myself too hard though. Last thing I need is to make this worse..." Which was why his stretches we slow and careful, just testing what he was capable of. It was just nice being able to move it at all.

Allen did a few more of his push ups before deciding to stop for the time being. It was better to do that one when he was more focused all things considering.

"I think your friends would get mad if you did." Because he knew his would if he pushed himself too much after getting hurt, or at least just make Lenalee mad if she was here.

But for the moment he looked around to try and find something better to do for the moment.

"What would you usual training be, if I can ask?"
