After being universally criticized online, I went viral on military-themed variety shows.

Chapter 29 will make things even more difficult.

You need to use equipment to do sit-ups.

The six guests lay down on the supine bench in turn.

Gao Juyao felt drowsy from the relatively gentle morning sun, when he heard the instructor's devilish voice: "Hands behind your head, get ready!"

My somewhat confused mind instantly cleared up.

"According to the standard, fifty sit-ups should be completed within two minutes. For you, let's set it to four minutes for now. Start the timer."

There's no need to worry about sore arms when doing sit-ups. The guests were all very fast at first, averaging about one per second.

But as time went on, the abdominal muscles began to ache, the speed gradually slowed down, and the movements became more and more strenuous.

The audience was also struggling to watch, and involuntarily turned their attention back to Jiang Hanying.

"...forty-nine, fifty!"

After easily completing fifty sit-ups, Jiang Hanying sat up and stretched.

It's much more comfortable to view from here.

What happened? The instructor didn't make us do extra practice this time!

[Watching Jiang Hanying do fifty sit-ups in two minutes, I'm not surprised at all!]

Me too, I've become more and more composed through training.

So, did the instructor let Jiang Hanying off the hook this time?

Even Jiang Hanying herself was a little surprised. She thought that after she finished fifty, a hand would suddenly reach out and push her back down, saying "Continue."

Thinking this, I couldn't help but turn my head to look at the person.

As if waiting for her to look over, the other person immediately reached out and patted the curved sit-up bench next to them, saying, "Use this to do it, make it a little more difficult."

Jiang Hanying: "..."

[Pfft, looks like the instructor's special treatment will never be late.]

As expected, the instructors won't let you pass easily.

I've tried this method; I can do about twenty while lying flat, but with this head-down, top-heavy method, I can only manage ten at most.

Jiang Hanying walked up to the equipment. She remembered seeing this kind of high-difficulty fitness equipment before, but she had never used it herself.

She simply asked, "How do you use this?"

Li Chengxiao glanced at her, then turned around and went straight to the equipment to demonstrate.

"Use this area to stabilize below the knees. Your upper body can lie down or be suspended in the air. Use your core muscles to lift your upper body. Do you understand?"

You'll understand it at a glance.

Jiang Hanying immediately nodded, eager to try, "I got it, I'll give it a shot."

[No, why are you learning so fast? Let the instructor do a few more!]

Hehehe, I love watching!

[Great back! Cough cough, I mean, the movements are so easy!]

[Thanks to Jiang Hanying for securing this benefit for us.]

Amidst the disappointed murmurs in the live stream, Li Chengxiao got off the sit-up machine and was replaced by Jiang Hanying.

"Let's try to make as much as we can this time."

The live stream camera naturally focused on Jiang Hanying, who had already begun to tackle even more challenging tasks.

After finishing his last sit-up, Yuan Chaoyu wiped his sweat and couldn't help but look in Jiang Hanying's direction.

I caught a glimpse of her supple waist beneath the belt, effortlessly lifting her upper body with graceful, fluid movements.

Not to mention the viewers in the live stream, even the crew members around couldn't help but turn their attention to it.

She gritted her teeth, got up, and walked over. "Reporting to the instructor, I'd also like to try something a bit more difficult."

Li Chengxiao nodded casually, "Okay, do what you can."

Yuan Chaoyu felt uncomfortable listening to this, bit his lower lip lightly, and without saying a word, went straight to the equipment next to Jiang Hanying.

Wow, what a feast for the eyes!

[Was Yuan Chaoyu's competitive spirit ignited by Jiang Hanying?] [What do you mean by "his competitive spirit ignited by Jiang Hanying"? Even simple sit-ups are easy for the goddess, so why did he challenge himself to do something more difficult?]

[Are the male guests on the other side feeling any pressure right now?]

Male guests: The pressure is immense!
Seeing that they were being outdone by the only two female guests in the group, the four of them immediately put in all their might.

Finally, fitness fanatic Chu Yuan gave a low shout and successfully completed fifty sit-ups before the timer ended.

Although the remaining three heard the instructor remind them that they had exceeded the time limit, they did not give up and insisted on finishing the last one before lying down and not moving.

Out of the corner of their eye, they saw two female guests still persevering on the difficult equipment on the other side. They exchanged glances and saw a hint of bitterness in each other's eyes.

This is only the first day of official training, do you guys have to be so aggressive?!
Finally, the instructor called a halt, saying, "Everyone, rest for ten minutes. After that, we'll do alternating training of duck walks and squats and stands."

Upon hearing the word "duck walk," Yuan Chaoyu's last breath deflated.

It's time to come!
Personally, I think the duck walk is the most difficult.

The main thing is that you need to let go and move freely. Some people don't move properly mainly because they can't let go.

[Will the instructor demonstrate later? Hehe, I can't wait!]

[Watching the goddess's breakdown countdown.]

Can't we just skip practicing the duck walk?

The training programs and their order set by the instructors were very professional. Push-ups and sit-ups worked the upper body and core, while duck walks and squats worked the glutes, lower body strength, and hand-eye coordination. After completing these two exercises, the upper body would be almost rested, which was perfect for pull-ups. This alternation prevented overtraining and ensured a well-rounded workout!

[Thumbs up for this analysis! And a word of advice to some of the goddess's fans: stop making baseless accusations. The instructor is definitely more professional than you all.]

Ten minutes passed in the blink of an eye for the guests who were so tired they just wanted to rest.

"Alright, break time is over, let's continue training."

Gao Juyao, his whole body radiating reluctance, got up from the supine machine, exclaiming, "How time flies!"

Li Chengxiao glanced at him and said, "First, walk like a duck and watch me demonstrate."

【I'm coming! 】

[I'm ready to learn by watching; I'm already squatting in front of the mirror.]

I'm too embarrassed to learn this while I'm out!

"First, squat down, but don't squat all the way down. Your hands can be behind your back or in front of you, as long as you can maintain your balance. Think about how ducks walk. When you move, use your hips to push forward and step forward, gripping the ground with the balls of your feet..."

Xun Zhou watched the instructor walk steadily and said, "It seems pretty easy."

The others nodded in agreement.

[Hehe, he probably won't be able to say anything later.]

Old Xun's long legs seem to make him the most unsteady when he walks.

[I just tried it, and I'm typing on my knees right now. My knees are about to swell up from hitting them.]

Why is the instructor walking so steadily, while I can't even maintain my balance?

[Lacking core competencies.]

This move really looks easy, but it's actually quite difficult to do.

I just want to know why the drill instructor looks so cool even when he walks with a duck-like gait, while I look like a wobbly idiot!

After walking about fifty meters, Li Chengxiao demonstrated a standard squat and stand-up before standing up. He turned to look at the guests who were still standing in the same place and said, "Walk over to me with a duck-like gait, stop, and then do twenty squats and stand-ups to pass."

Squats are easier than sit-ups, right? Just squat down and stand up, and that's only twenty, isn't that a piece of cake?

[The main issue is that after twenty repetitions, although you can still do more, your form tends to become distorted. It's best to rest for a while before doing more; anyone who's practiced this knows.]

There are quite a few fitness enthusiasts in the audience.

[Here it comes! The guests' duck walk is about to begin. A reminder to everyone to be prepared to record; the following scenes are highly unpredictable.]

The guests looked at each other, then silently squatted down.
Then take the first step.

"Snapped!"

It was the sound of a knee failing to support itself and making intimate contact with the ground.

Li Chengxiao didn't even flinch. "Back to square one, start over!"
