Endurance/Strength Time E to D 750x2=1500
As Ryuujin headed out of Konoha to the Small South Forest he couldn't help but marvel at how peaceful the village seemed when nearly everyone was still fast asleep. It was also very cool and the atmosphere was simply calming. He considered himself lucky as no one would be in the forest at this time so he would be alone. With Kai, he quickly amended in his mind when she shot him a look. He wondered if she could read minds but quickly pushed that thought out of his mind when he realized that he had reached his destination. Though the forest was quiet compared to how it usually was during the late morning, Ryuujin could still hear some animals moving about and he stopped to taken in the sound of the nocturnal animals. Then he heard the hooting of an owl. He continued walking then paused again. The owl hooted. Ryuu decided that was approval of his actions and continued on his way.
When they reached a clearing at the centre of the forest Ryuu stopped in awe. He never got tired of this sight. It was a full moon tonight and the moonlight shining on the clearing was a beautiful sight to behold. Kai ignored it completely and immediately went over to lay under some trees and continued sleeping. Ryuu glanced at her, decided she would be alright then went to a spot a few metres away from her. He mentally went over his training schedule and what he would be focusing on, namely his endurance and strength. He checked his watch and noted the time. It was 1 o'clock in the morning and he decided that in approximately five hours he would end his training. First thing he did, before any physically activity, was to do some meditation. He sat down in the centre of the clearing with his feet folded beneath him and his eyes closed. He did so for ten minutes straight before he got up and started with some stretches as warm up for a few minutes before he got down to business.
Since he was already wearing his weights he decided a nice jog around the forest would start as a beginner. So he started jogging. He kept it up until he had run around the forest at least five times. He made it back to his starting point, rested some then jogged again. This time he jogged ten times around the forest still at the same speed from before.
Now for the second part of his training:push-ups. He made his way to the centre of the clearing got down on the ground and started. "1,2,3,4..." He counted right until he made it to one hundred. He flopped onto his back with a sigh and his chest heaving. By this time he was sweating like a hog and two hours weren't even up yet. He still had more to do and he sighed a bit. Then he went straight back to push-ups, counting this time to two hundred. When he was finished he took a rest stretching his muscles every now and again to cool down.
Eventually he was up and ready for to move on with another exercise. This time he was going move up and down trees using the Supernatural Walking technique. He allowed chakra pool to his feet then stopped. An idea had just popped into his head and he decided to try it. He was going to run up that tree on his hands. He did a hand stand, channeled chakra to his stands and, rather unsteadily, raced to the tree. At first he thought he had succeeded until he was blown off and he crashed into another tree on the other side of the clearing, his body forming a scorpion shape as he slid to the floor.. "Ouch. Dammit that hurt. Note to self don't try to run up trees on hands. Got it." He picked himself up, brushing dirt off and looked around him to ensure no one saw that embarrassing fail even as he knew that he was the only one around. He tried again for a second time. This time he channeled the chakra to his feet and once again was blown off. He started for a third time changing how much chakra he channeled into his feet. He stuck to the tree and made it half way before he fell off. By his seventh try he was able to walk the complete length of the tree. Ryuujin gave a shout of triumph, pumping his fist into the air and promptly fell off. But he was not deterred now that he knew he was able to do it after all and by his fifteenth try he was able to walk up and down the tree ten times before falling off. Eventually Ryuu got pored with his pace and decided to up it. He started off at a sprint a few feet away from the tree and ran at it poopling chakra to his feet and he ran up the tree. And ran back down. And up again. And down in this fashion. He continued in this fashion until he could run it up and down at least twenty times without falling.
When 6 o' clock came Ryuu had already completed another twenty jogs around the forest, another two hundred push-ups, twenty walks up and down the tree and twenty runs. He had suffered several falls but he had endured and though he was now bone tired he felt very accomplished. At some point in time Kai had awoken and watched him train until she got bored and fell asleep once more. Now he woke her up. "Come Kai. I'm finished and now I really needed a bath." She sniffed in his direction and meowed in agreement. Ryuujin chuckled a bit and then they left together.
