Well. Gladio found out where all the five-pound weights had gone when he came in to get ready for class that morning, and the answer to that was, apparently, in another gym.

And, well, that gave him an idea to do a quick reworking of what they would be doing in class that day, too. Good thing he had reason to dip out of the apartment fairly early to get here to set things up, right? He was still going to be smirking about that probably the whole day, and was very much looking forward to serving up another nice round of "Dude, I told you so" later on before hitting the bar.

But today, it would be the students who would be hitting the bar. The weight bar! And Gladio was grinning once everyone was there and geared up and ready to go, but that grin was maybe slightly apologetic to Jon in particular ~~assuming he was there~~ as he clapped his hands to rally the troops and get started.

"Alright, guys," he said, "today we're focusing on the upper body, and specifically, weight lifting, because a bunch of weights that went missing from my other gym the other day wound up in here this morning, and I'm taking that as a sign from the multiverse that it wants you guys to pump some iron today. Now, I know guys like me probably make it look like it's pretty easy, but there's a lot to keep in mind when it comes to weight lifting, because it's incredibly easy to wind up with more injury than gains if you're not careful. So, today, we're going to go over a few different types of weight training, the various different types of weights, and, most importantly, some proper technique guidelines for what to do and what definitely not to do. So take a few minutes to get warmed up, and then we'll get right into it."

Lifting on cold muscles is just a recipeh for disaster, so use the time as Gladio goes through all the different types of lifting and weights and proper technique to stretch and get ready to really feel it whenever you try to lift anything tomorrow.

Jon was definitely going to stretch. Rosa's yoga class had been useful in that he could stretch, and he definitely did not want to start lifting without it.

And now it's time to put some of that lecture into action by getting out there and trying some different weights! Feel free to see what you're most comfortable with or ask further questions once you're finally out there among the weights, and, don't worry, Jon, there's plenty of just five pounders around for you, too.

Nell was pretty comfortable with the weights - and a lot stronger than she looked - but she took her time to warm up she started slow.

"What...er. I'm not sure which type is best to start with," Jon said. Look, he was here to try to get better at this, he just wasn't sure where to start.

Alara didn't really do weight lifting all that much despite her strength, which she supposed she should really try and do more since she was finding she was quite enjoying the process of trying the different weights.

Who can't seem to be able to stop smugly smirking for some reason.
