In the morning.
Xu Lin's packages gradually arrived.
Previously, Xu Lin was officially accepted by Jiangdu University of Finance and Economics and received the reward of a 'Body Shaping Card.'
This reward allows Xu Lin to see results just by exercising, and these results can be permanently maintained under the effect of the Body Shaping Card.
Xu Lin was naturally tempted.
Just as women want a good figure, men also want a good figure.
Eighteen-year-old Xu Lin has excellent physique and isn't really out of shape; there is no excess fat on his body, and lifting his shirt reveals some abs. That's one aspect; overall, his physique and proportions are quite good.
However, Xu Lin wants an even better body.
"Can you give me a physique like an Ancient Greek sculpture?"
A good physique is one of the important outward manifestations of male charm.
But Xu Lin doesn't want to become one of those muscle-bound guys; according to his aesthetics, muscle-bound guys look unappealing.
Xu Lin also doesn't want to go to the gym because he doesn't want to smell the sweat inside or possibly encounter a group of male exhibitionists.
So Xu Lin bought sit-up aids, resistance bands, dumbbells, a dumbbell bench, a comprehensive training rack, etc.
The master delivered them in the morning, and helped Xu Lin install the equipment that needed setting up.
Once everything was ready.
Xu Lin took off his shirt, wearing only shorts, found workout videos online, including exercises for abs, shoulders, chest, and legs.
He studied for over an hour.
[Energy (85/100): Energetic.]
Xu Lin glanced at the energy section.
Yeah.
Energy is plentiful.
Let's get started!
Xu Lin didn't waste any words and began doing exercises targeting his abs.
Crunches, seated leg raises, Russian twists, and bicycle kicks, all thirty sets of four reps.
Xu Lin wasn't just casually working out, doing a little here and there; he was serious this time.
Tired?
A little bit indeed.
An hour passed.
[Your abs shaping in progress: 20/100 (reaching 100 equals perfect abs)]
"Didn't expect a progress indicator."
Xu Lin glanced at it; since there's a progress indicator, it will make his workout more convenient.
[You are currently exercising+.]
A task can be triggered.
Xu Lin didn't hesitate and clicked the + sign directly.
[Task available: Achieve the ultimate physique on earth.]
[Note: Completing the task can earn random rewards, including but not limited to wealth, skills, items, etc.]
[Note: Reaching values of 50, 80, and 100 can unlock rewards each time.]
Xu Lin wouldn't pass up these tasks; moreover, completing tasks earns rewards, and this is something easy he can do while exercising.
[Energy (65/100): The state is okay.]
Under intensive workout, energy consumption seems somewhat fast.
Gulp.
Xu Lin downed two bottles of cola.
[Energy (73/100): The state is good.]
Below 50, fatigued.
50 to 60, somewhat fatigued.
60 to 70, the state is okay.
70 to 80, the state is good.
80 to 90, energetic.
Above 90, full of vigor.
Above 100, energy explodes.
Then, Xu Lin ordered some takeout.
[Energy +10.]
Adding to this, Xu Lin rested for an hour and recovered 6 energy points.
[Energy (89/100): Energetic.]
After eating, Xu Lin rested for a while and then started working out again.
Now it's time for chest muscle training.
Xu Lin used wide push-ups and dumbbell raises while lying on the ground.
With Xu Lin's current physical condition, which is evaluated by the system as excellent, he can do more than two hundred standard push-ups in one go.
In school, Xu Lin was even more robust than those students who specifically train in sports, not just bragging.
And about Xu Lin's current physique.
[Physique: Excellent — Excellent upwards (70/100)]
30 more points to reach the level of 'excellent upwards.'
Similarly, an hour passed.
[Your chest muscle shaping in progress: 10/100 (reaching 100 equals perfect chest)]
"Only 6 points, but abs there are 22 points, maybe because I already have some abs, so the value is relatively higher?"
[Your shoulders shaping in progress...]
[Your back shaping in progress...]
[Your arms shaping in progress...]
[Your legs shaping in progress...]
...
Xu Lin found that workouts are calculated by the hour, and only after an hour tips appear once.
Currently, Xu Lin is working out six parts, each part trained for an hour.
Six hours passed, including rest in between.
By the time Xu Lin really stopped, it was already evening.
At this moment, he was drenched in sweat.
[Energy (50/100): You are a bit fatigued, suggested to rest and recharge.]
[Physique (72/100): Excellent.]
[Abs: 20/100.]
[Chest: 10/100.]
[Shoulders: 9/100.]
[Back: 8/100.]
[Arms: 12/100.]
[Legs: 11/100.]
Xu Lin glanced at the panel, feeling the path is long and arduous, wondering if he can finish this summer.
Then Xu Lin suddenly had a bizarre and wicked idea flash in his mind.
"Since the physique can be shaped."
"Greatness needs no words!"
Xu Lin couldn't even imagine becoming such a powerful man once he maxed out all these values.
Xu Lin felt quite good.
Ate well, drank well, took a bath.
The time reached past ten in the evening.
Xu Lin played two rounds of games and went to bed past eleven.
The next day, Xu Lin continued the work from yesterday, still exercising, shaping his physique.
The following days were the same.
In fact, everyone can work hard; even someone like Xu Lin who is prone to laziness can, but the key is seeing quick positive feedback; that way no one won't be motivated to try harder.
Like Xu Lin now, he gets feedback after an hour's workout, so he is now addicted to exercising and can't stop.
Moreover, Xu Lin has the Body Shaping Card buff; his workouts won't be ineffective, nor will they regress, so he will keep progressing.
[Physique (80/100): Excellent.]
[Abs: 30/100.]
[Chest: 24/100.]
[Shoulders: 21/100.]
[Back: 25/100.]
[Arms: 26/100.]
[Legs: 20/100.]
[Male Symbol: 35/100.]
[Note: After reaching a value of 50, raising further values becomes increasingly difficult, can be improved by intensifying training.]
Over a week, Xu Lin's physique improvements are good now; for example, the abs, the most discussed part in fitness, Xu Lin has six-pack abs, and the so-called eight-pack abs might appear later because the remaining two are partly visible, and the eight-pack seems to be a matter of talent; for now, his six-pack abs seem almost perfect, and other aspects are similar.
Overall, Xu Lin's physique is already impressive now.
Especially if he gets undressed, the whole physique looks even more stunning, with quite a visual impact.
