Chapter 130: I Cup Women and E Cup Women, Part 3

Surprisingly…

“Yes! That’s it!”

“Ugh…”

As Moon Gyu-seon, the enthusiastic gym manager, clapped and set a rhythm, Jo A-yeong, groaning, completed her third set of ten repetitions with 4kg dumbbells.

“Huff… puff…”

“Your base strength is better than I thought. Having large breasts must have strengthened your shoulders. I wouldn’t have guessed you struggled with running at 6 km/h for ten minutes.”

“Haa… haa… let’s… rest…”

“Yes, yes, take a good rest.”

Jo A-yeong unexpectedly completed the dumbbell routine with ease.

Next…

“Now, Hayoon, your turn. You’ve rested enough, right?”

“Yes…”

It was Hayoon’s turn.

Moon Gyu-seon had started using the word “our” and calling Hayoon “Hayoon.”

She seemed to be fond of them, both having large breasts and poor stamina.

“Ugh…”

Hayoon completed her first set of 4kg dumbbells with a groan.

Then…

“Wh-What…?”

Moon Gyu-seon’s gaze was unsettling.

As if she had seen something she shouldn’t have.

“Does your elbow hurt? You’re using your joints, not your muscles. Your wrists look strained too.”

“Ah, yes… a bit…”

“Why? Even if you haven’t worked out before, your wrists shouldn’t be struggling with just 4kg.”

“I… draw a lot…”

“Ah, drawing.”

Moon Gyu-seon nodded in understanding.

Then…

“Don’t use these.”

“…?”

“Use these.”

“Huh?”

She took the 4kg dumbbells from Hayoon and handed her 2kg pink dumbbells.

“No… I can lift 4kg dumbbells. Why…”

“Lifting them and using proper form are different. Your forearms are thin, and your wrists are weak, so even 4kg is too much. It’s better to use 2kg dumbbells and increase the repetitions.”

“Ah…”

“Lifting weights that are too heavy will only damage your ligaments and joints. If you want to continue drawing for a long time, use these for now.”

“Okay…”

Honestly, it was incredibly embarrassing.

‘
…’

She had her pride.

Pink dumbbells?

Even 5kg dumbbells would have looked pathetic, but pink?

Hayoon suppressed her mortification and tried to regain her composure.

She completed three sets of sixteen repetitions with the 2kg pink dumbbells.

‘This isn’t even hard…?’

4kg was slightly challenging, but 2kg was too easy.

It was almost frustrating.

“Hmm, let’s try 3kg next time. Now, let’s work on those breasts, shall we?”

Moon Gyu-seon, observing Hayoon’s form, suggested a slight adjustment and led them to the pec deck fly machine.

It was a chest exercise machine where you held the handles and brought them together in front of your chest.

“Let’s start with 15kg, ten repetitions.”

“Ugh…”

“Good, good, you’re doing well…?”

As Jo A-yeong attempted her first repetition…

“Huh?”

“Uh…”

Moon Gyu-seon, Hayoon, and even Jo A-yeong herself were stunned.

The exercise involved bringing your arms together in front of your chest, but…

Jo A-yeong’s arms were stopped by her breasts, making it impossible to bring them together.

“Um…”

“Is this how this machine works?”

“Do you think so?”

Moon Gyu-seon responded to Hayoon’s sarcastic question, equally bewildered.

“This… limits the range of motion… the muscles aren’t being properly stimulated…”

She muttered to herself and shook her head.

“This won’t do. Let’s use the chest press instead.”

“Unnie can use that too, right?”

“Yes. Let’s try 15kg.”

This time, it was a machine that wasn’t affected by breast size. Moon Gyu-seon attached 7.5kg weights to each side and gave the signal.

“Haa…”

Jo A-yeong started her first set with a grunt.

She confidently completed ten repetitions, her eyes gleaming with determination…

“Uh…”

Nine repetitions in the second set.

Seven in the third.

Her repetitions decreased, and the gleam in her eyes faded, replaced by a deadpan stare.

“Why…?”

A look of disbelief.

She seemed to be experiencing self-deprecation, having reached her limit at a mere 15kg.

“It’s okay. Many women struggle with 15kg. And it’s your first time, don’t be too disappointed.”

“I-Is that so?”

Moon Gyu-seon, worried that they might ask for a refund, quickly reassured her.

Next, it was Hayoon’s turn…

“Ah…”

Unfortunately, Hayoon’s performance was even worse.

“Ugh…”

She failed to reach ten repetitions in her first set, managing only nine.

Seven in the second, and seven in the third.

“Why am I even alive…”

Hayoon was filled with self-deprecation.

“It’s okay. You draw, right? You must be used to sitting all day, so it’s natural to struggle with exercise.”

“That’s… right, Hayoon. It can’t be helped.”

Seeing Hayoon’s dejection, even Jo A-yeong tried to comfort her.

Moon Gyu-seon wanted to continue the session, but their stamina had reached its limit. Hayoon and Jo A-yeong, with their weak base strength, could barely manage the chest press.

They finished with ten minutes of running on the treadmill.

“Are you two going to shower?”

The workout session naturally came to an end.

“I didn’t bring any clothes.”

“I’m going straight home.”

“Really? Hmm…”

Moon Gyu-seon, observing them…

“Okay, I’m feeling generous. Here are two locker keys. You can use the lockers from now on.”

“R-Really?”

“Normally, PT clients get a discount on locker rentals, but I’ll give them to you for free. It must be uncomfortable to walk around in workout clothes.”

“Ah…”

“Yes…”

Hayoon and Jo A-yeong sighed, and Moon Gyu-seon handed them the keys.

“Make yourselves comfortable. Seeing you two reminds me of myself when I was younger.”

Moon Gyu-seon’s overly familiar attitude was unsettling, but…

This changed things.

“Thank you.”

“Call me Ms. Moon.”

Hayoon bowed her head respectfully, and Moon Gyu-seon chuckled, correcting her title.

Having established a friendly relationship with Moon Gyu-seon, the two sweaty women left the gym.

“I’ll call you a taxi, Unnie.”

“Really?”

“Of course. I promised to cover your travel expenses.”

“Even for the gym? We’ll be coming almost every day…”

“If it’s too much, I won’t do it next time, but I’ll cover it today. Tell me your address so I can call a taxi.”

“O-Okay…”

Hayoon and Jo A-yeong were becoming quite close.

Their growing closeness was a good sign.

Though they hadn’t debuted yet, this meant Jo A-yeong would receive favorable terms during contract renewals.

And Hayoon could prevent the loss of Jo A-yeong, a key asset she had carefully nurtured.

It was a win-win situation.

“Ugh…”

“Argh…”

On their second PT session, they continued to groan.

It was exhausting.

Hayoon had a slight advantage in cardio, but her weak wrists made her feel inadequate when using the machines…

And Jo A-yeong consistently struggled.

The main problem was that they had no strengths besides Hayoon’s treadmill running and Jo A-yeong’s dumbbell lifts.

They could barely keep up with Moon Gyu-seon’s routine…

“Let’s try sit-ups today. It’s not the best exercise, but I had to include something you two could manage.”

Even sit-ups, which they started when they were already tired, were difficult. The sit-up machine was slightly inclined, with their heads lower than their feet, so…

“Instructor… my breasts hurt…”

“This is crazy… A-yeong’s are way too big…”

Jo A-yeong’s breasts pressed against her face, obstructing her vision.

She had to sit up and lie back down repeatedly in this state, making her miserable.

“This won’t do. I need an assistant.”

“Me?”

“Yes, Hayoon, hold A-yeong’s breasts.”

“H-Her breasts?”

“Yes, her breasts. Can’t you do that much for your friend? Her breasts are getting in the way. Hurry up and help.”

“Okay…”

Hayoon reluctantly reached for Jo A-yeong’s breasts.

‘This is crazy…’

Lately, she had been getting too physically close to other women, making her feel uneasy.
