Chapter 37 – Three Major Measurements
Seo Joo-hwan came out to exercise on Tuesday and Wednesday following Monday.
Losing weight is no longer a problem, just the exercise itself was fun. It was fun to build muscles that are getting better and better.
Let’s have sex or something.
“Whoop, whoop.”
In order to have a good-looking body, you need to do a little different exercise than when you are on a diet. It wasn’t just about burning fat with cardio, but proper weight training was necessary.
After receiving PT from Lim Soo-hee and working hard, I got a body that Seo Joo-hwan could look after without realizing it.
‘Today is the heart.’
This time it’s the bench press.
I barely lifted 60kg in the army, but now I can easily lift more than 70kg. Based on the point of return, it was Sam who had gained 20kg.
It’s a good achievement that is too good to be achieved in just over two months. Her breasts, which had been drooping like women’s milk, were transformed into strong muscles.
‘Ah, that’s really unfortunate.’
As time passed, it was regrettable that the application period of 『Hellchang’s Blessing』 Was short. If you exercise this momentum for one more year, even the 3rd 500 that you have only heard about may not be a dream.
“It’s okay.”
He started attaching discs to the bar. Today, I was thinking of going heavier than usual.
‘Should I see how many hits I can hit?’
The maximum weight that can be lifted only once is called 1 Repetition Maximum (1RM). 1RM is also the standard for the three commonly-speaking measurements.
A safety device is required for measurement. To prevent injury, I had to refrain from measuring 1RM alone.
Seo Joo-hwan looked around Hwi-hwi. There is one older brother who will definitely be with me at this time. He was very conspicuous, so it was not difficult to find him.
A muscular, bearded man in under armor was poised for a deadlift.
Seo Joo-hwan called him cautiously.
“Brother Kang-ho.”
“Are you Juhwan? Hang on. Just do this.”
“Yep.”
He nodded politely and then stood up in a somewhat gentle posture.
“Suck!”
The bearded man gave strength to his muscles with a spirit. At the same time, a barbell weighing 200kg was lifted with ease.
‘Wow. Whenever I see this….’
I’m speechless when I’m watching from the side. It’s hard for people to see it, but to carry it so lightly.
Of course, the posture itself is perfect. The shoulder blades are fixed in a vertical line, and the erector spinae and hamstring muscles wriggle. The legs pushing the ground were also great. Somebody’s thighs looked harder than a lump of iron.
Whoops!
When you put the barbell down, it makes a loud noise even though it is on a rubber board.
No matter how many more times he did it, he looked back with sweat after finishing the set routine.
“Whoa. Yeah, what’s going on?”
The bearded man looks at him with wide eyes. It was also a typical tiger figure, so Juhwan Seo naturally shrank.
I don’t know what I did wrong, but I did it first. Please save my life.
Seo Joo-hwan told Baek Kang-ho, who looked at him curiously.
“Hyung, I’m going to try to hit those 3 once… “
“What? Three generations?!”
“Huh! I’m sorry! Dare to be like me! I will exercise more and come back!”
Bang!
Seo Joo-hwan, who was trying to escape, was caught by the nape of his neck.
The pressure you feel in your grip is incredible.
Wrong. I didn’t mean to wear Under Armor! I was just curious!
“Honey, why are you running away?”
Baek Kang-ho, who half-forced him back, waved his hand and said.
“I am not angry. If you run away like that, you’ll get hurt, man.”
Baek Kang-ho made a sad expression with eyes like drops. Even so, it was just scary.
“Haha. I was just kidding.”
“Oh, was that a joke?”
“Sure.”
It was half a joke.
I was half serious when I grabbed his back his.
Seo Joo-hwan smiled awkwardly and looked at him.
Real name: Baek Kang-ho.
Nickname, tiger brother.
Of course, I got to know Baek Kang-ho while working out.
While the blessing was being applied, Seo Joo-hwan exercised like crazy with the determination to pick out as many mulberries as possible, and he wondered if he would collapse during the exercise if he added a little exaggeration. He once said that Lim Soo-hee was hurting himself.
Anyway, it seemed Baek Kang-ho liked Seo Joo-hwan doing the die-hard exercise. He says it’s admirable to see him working out hard, as if he’s looking at his old self. Of course, he was advised that exercising like that would make him sick.
Since then, the two have been quite close.
‘Contrary to his impression of him, he’s a good older brother.’
Contrary to the impression that he would have soaked in a couple of people, Baek Kang-ho was an easy-going and good-natured older brother. He went sometimes, but he couldn’t help but be afraid.
Baek Kang-ho said with a kind expression in his own way.
“Did you ask for help to hit the third?”
“Yes. I was wondering how many I could hit.”
“Hmm. I get it. Well said You can’t get hurt by doing it alone.”
Baek Kang-ho grinned and patted Seo Ju-hwan on the back. Of course, that fangfang was Baek Kang-ho’s standard.
“Then start with the bench. Don’t worry about getting hurt.”
“Yep.”
That is how Seo Joo-hwan’s three major measurements began.
*
His latest bench press weight is 70kg.
First of all, try lifting by increasing the weight by 5 kg.
“Huh!”
Flash
Unexpectedly, a barbell that goes up without difficulty.
Baek Kang-ho, who saw that, nodded his head and said.
“Let’s put on 10 kg more.”
“Yes? Isn’t that too sudden?”
“Looking at what I’m lifting now, I can do enough. Don’t worry, I’ll help you so you won’t get hurt.”
“Yep.”
Baek Kang-ho’s words were correct.
As he squeezed his strength to the limit, he managed to lift the bar while his arms his trembled.
Crunchy!
Seo Joo-hwan put down the bar and let out the breath he had been holding back.
“Whoa! Wow. Does this work?”
“You said you could. Hmm. Well, even if I ordered it, it’s surprising. Even beginners can gain weight this fast? You are really born.”
“Hehe. Thank you for the compliment.”
“Don’t laugh, man. Instead, you have a weak back. Try dead next.”
“Yep!”
As Baek Kang-ho said, his dead count was lower than his bench. He lifted 85 off the bench, but Dead barely came up with 120. Considering that dead is usually 50 to 60 higher than bench, my back his was definitely weak.
Finally squat.
Seo Joo-hwan briefly relaxed his muscles before grabbing the bar.
While I was stretching like that, several eyes in the gym were focused on me. It’s interesting to see the three generations measuring.
Of course, rather than the reaction of ‘great’, it was the eyes looking at Helen. Before I knew it, Lim Soo-hee was also watching.
Looking at a beauty like Lim Soo-hee, I feel like my body is straining for no reason.
Men’s lower body!
Seo Joo-hwan grabbed the bar and started squatting.
“Suck!”
Flash!
120 kg was lifted at once.
It’s easier than you think to do.
Perhaps that was unexpected, Baek Kang-ho was also a little surprised.
“Joo-hwan, your lower body is better than you thought? Let’s increase it by 10 kg.”
Add weight, sit down again, and get up.
“Huh!”
The center of gravity is stable and there is more power than expected.
Baek Kang-ho, who caught him without a doubt, added 10 kg of weight again.
“Don’t worry, I will support you from behind if you feel like your posture is about to collapse. Come on, squat!”
Grab a barbell and open your chest.
Squeezing his hips and keeping his core strong, he went down.
“Huh!”
Maintain abdominal pressure while carrying a weight of 140 kg. And power up again!
“Huh!”
Shaking.
“Turn it off!”
Flash!
In the end, Seo Joo-hwan barely succeeds.
Crunchy!
He quickly put the bar on the stand and let out a rough breath that he had been holding back.
“OMG. Dizzy.”
In an instant, blood rushed to his head and spun around.
“Joo-hwan is great. Look at the thighs Now, water here.”
Lim Soo-hee, who approached, tapped his thigh and held out water.
“Ah, sister. Thank you.”
“You are really awesome. Does it make sense to add weight like this already?”
Saying that, Lim Soo-hee’s eyes were sparkling with excitement.
“Joo Hwan-ah, you did a good job.”
Turning around, Baek Kang-ho raised his thumb with a cheerful smile. Seo Joo-hwan responded by raising his thumb.
“Thank you.”
From now on, I will only trust my older brother.

When you’re about to go home after a workout.
Lim Soo-hee said.
“Juhwan-ah, would you like to have a drink tonight?”
“Uh? You want a drink?”
Seo Ju-hwan asked with a puzzled face.
As far as he knows, Im Soo-hee does n’t drink or smoke because he cares about his health her.
“Doesn’t your sister drink?”
“Oh. I like to drink I usually don’t eat on purpose.”
“But why today?”
“Ho Ho. Grab me and drink only then, because today is the Anyang branch meeting.”
Then it gets even weirder. Isn’t it strange that he gets together with the staff?
Do close members attend?
Seo Joo-hwan still questioned.
“Are you going with the staff?”
“No. With frequent members. Employees are free to attend.”
“Ah.”
Seo Joo-hwan finally understood and nodded his head.
Some gyms hold separate meetings with like-minded people, and Ribbon Fitness seems to be like that.
‘Thank you for not coming out for a long time.’
He had only been attending Ribbon Fitness for less than two months. Is the Anyang branch about a month away?
Seo Joo-hwan secretly opened Lim Soo-hee’s status window to check her sexual desire and liking her.
〈 Lim Soo-hee 〉
Current sexual desire: B
Likeability: C+
Before I knew it, I achieved a C+ in favorability.
Did letting go of the words work?
It was definitely C when I checked it a while ago, but it was up without knowing it.
Lucy answered the question.
[It rose when measuring the 3rd generation. You’re concentrating, so I turned off notifications in case you get hurt.]
‘Oh yeah? Thank you.’
He was squeezing all the strength he had been suckling, and if the alarm went off at that time, he might have been seriously injured.
“Joohwan?”
Oops! I thought about it a little longer as I checked my sexual desire and liking.
Lim Soo-hee was looking at her with narrow eyes.
“Are you listening to me?”
“No, of course.”
“Huh. Weren’t you listening? And half words.”
Lim Soo-hee was still obsessed with short words.
Could it be that she really thinks she knows her as twenty-five?
‘Even though my sister has a baby face, that’s a bit lacking in conscience.’
Lim Soo-hee let out a sigh and said.
“I will tell you again.”
“Yes. I’ll listen carefully this time.”
“It’s nothing special, but I have occasional get-togethers with members who work hard. The dues are on the side of walking from time to time. How is it? Are you coming?”
“Well. I’ll go. How much is the dues?”
Lim Soo-hee winked at her eyes and said.
“Ho Ho. Since you are the first, noona will give it to you.”
“Uh? I’m fine…”
“Uh huh. Is your sister buying it for you?”
Lim Soo-hee, with both hands on her waist, eyes wide open.
He had a good impression, so he didn’t feel intimidated at all, but he just nodded. You don’t have to keep refusing to buy it.
Only then did Lim Soo-hee smile pleasantly.
“I’m glad you came.”
“Relief? Why?”
Seo Ju-hwan asked with some anticipation.
‘Is he even interested in me?’
Since Lim Soo-hee has a muscle fetish, it might be true. Seo Joo-hwan also now had a pretty decent body. He was prepared not to give up if it came for his body.
Unfortunately, Lim Soo-hee’s answer was different from what I expected.
“Because the members like you, Joo-hwan. I exercise hard. Especially today, Joo-hwan saw what you were doing and talked about inviting him.”
It seemed that other members, not Lim Soo-hee, made the proposal first.
Seo Joo-hwan regretfully licked his lips. Come to think of it, there are a lot of people with better bodies, but he had no reason to approach him.
“Ah, are you close with Mr. Kangho? By the way, Mr. Kangho will also appear.”
“Oh, yes? I’m surprised I thought he had no friends because he was scary.”
“Oh? Do you tell Kang-ho everything?”
“Hey.”
Please take a look at that….
