First of all, I decided to participate in Top Beast Survival, but there was no way they would say, ‘Welcome!’ just because I wanted to participate.

I don’t have any sports experience, I don’t use social media, and I don’t have any connections. The only thing I have an advantage over is my skills.

So, you have to stand out when you first apply to be selected. What is needed is a topic that sets the program apart from others and is beneficial to the program.

First, I grabbed my smartphone and tripod and went outside. I was thinking of getting some ideas from a nearby sports center.

I paid the one-day fee at the front desk and went inside.

Clang-clang-clang-

First, I headed to the gym, which can be said to be the most basic. Even though it was late, several people were exercising and sweating. The sound of weight plates hitting each other. The sound of a barbell hitting the floor is heard regularly.

The smell of iron emanating from the iron handles of the dumbbells and machine makes me feel like it is drawing blood out of my body.

I also sat down on some exercise equipment nearby. I roughly remembered the weight I had lifted before and lifted it.

“Wow, this is light.”

At the time, my face turned bright red and I lifted the weight, but it only felt like a moderate weight. I set the weight to maximum as I gave up. I felt resistance, but it was worth it.

After finishing one set, I immediately took out my smartphone. I decided on a video to film at the gym. Just three measurements.

I just felt it while lifting a weight.

“I thought it was still within the human range, but it is already beyond the human range.”

I think my strength is 5 times stronger than I expected. I mistakenly thought that my muscles would not have become that strong, not that they were disgustingly swollen. With my current body type, it should definitely be much harder, but it’s not normal.

With a body that looks like a physique athlete, he has strength comparable to that of a world-class powerlifter.

This means that abilities do more than simply affect the physical body. It gives off strength beyond the physical body. Even if the ability itself is a kind of superpower, there is nothing to say.

“It’s a bit awkward to give it your all. I need to control my strength.”

If you try your best, you will be treated as an alien. The gaze I want to receive is admiration and envy, not disgust and suspicion.

3 to 800 should be enough.

I heard last time that a famous bodybuilder in Korea had a record of about 700, so should I lift 100 more?

It was almost like a shame to think of it as a monster rather than an alien. Additionally, as it becomes a hot topic, the chances of being selected for the program increase.

“Trainer? Could you please help me?”

“Yes, of course. How can I help you?”

“I plan to take some measurements and record them by taking pictures with my smartphone. Can you take a picture?”

A trainer wearing a white tank top and leggings scanned my body. Then he nods his head and begins to guide. This definitely seemed like something I would have rejected if my body wasn’t that good.

“Of course. Come this way.”

She led me to the squat rack. I stood looking at the mirror and took off my shirt. The trainer’s eyes sparkle as he pretends to check his muscles while posing.

“Here. Please take a picture with this.”

“Yes…”

When I handed him the smartphone, he couldn’t take his eyes off my upper body. I like how it looks, but should I move it in once filming is finished?

Since shooting comes first, I turn around and put the disc on the barbell. As I made no attempt to stop adding discs, the trainer who had been quietly watching from behind spoke to me.

“Well, do you put them all in?”

“Yes, today is the day to challenge a new record.”

Although she heard the answer, she walked away with an unconvinced expression on her face. It doesn’t matter because your reaction will be different if you see it in person anyway.

“Inhale…!”

Take a stance and do squats.

Astonishment filled the eyes of the female trainer who was looking at me with concern, fearing that I might get hurt.

“Did it come out well?”

“Yes, yes!”

She was startled and answered loudly. I deliberately stayed close to her and checked my smartphone.

Inhale

I heard her stop breathing next to me. She focused on my body and I pretended not to notice and focused on the video.

“It was taken well. Please take care of the remaining two as well.”

“Please leave it to me!”

In an instant, I finished filming the bench press and deadlift. The record was exactly 3:800. Honestly, it was more difficult to show excessive effort than to lift the weight.

When I lost my posture while pretending to be having a hard time, the trainer who was filming helped me regain my posture.

“It’s really amazing! How can you break the top 3 record by 800…! You’re not even a powerlifter…”

She was aloof at first, but now she was almost crazy about me.

On the other hand, I spoke indifferently.

“I don’t know if this will be enough.”

“Yes? No, 3 to 800 doesn’t make sense for your body type! Do you want to do more here?”

She looks at me with an expression that doesn’t seem to understand her. I explained my situation to her.

“So, you want to participate in Top Beast Survival, but you’re wondering if the submitted materials will be enough?”

“That’s right.”

She looked at me for a moment and thought about it and then said.

“I also work in the fitness industry, so I heard about that program. I heard that a lot of famous people appear.”

I nodded quietly.

“I think this might be enough to get you selected, but…”

She seemed to be thinking about something and clapped her hands.

“Good! Then, I will think of an idea that will satisfy you! Instead…”

“Instead?”

Sseuuk

She patted my forearm and smiled mischievously.

“I hope you can give me some time after work is finished.”

I laughed out loud. I can’t believe you dash from there first. I guess I really liked my body.

“I am welcome. My name is Lee Min-ho.”

“This is Jeong Su-jin. He’s like an older brother, so you can talk to him.”

“Yes, Sujin. You too, speak comfortably.”

I sat at the desk and browsed the mileage store until her shift was over. The list is endless.

I looked through Namhira World whenever I had time, but there were very few products that I could tell what they were because there were no detailed descriptions of the products.

Still, since it’s a feature I need to use, I’ll have to buy something… There were a few products I had in mind.

As I was spending time like that, Jeong Soo-jin, who had finished work, came towards me.

“Follow me, Minho oppa.”

She took me to an area where I did stretching and bodyweight exercises.

“First, take off your clothes.”

“Clothes?”

Sujin Jeong shouted while blushing.

“If you look closely, you’ll know what to do!”

“No, I took three measurements of the body earlier and looked at everything.”

Although he said it grumpily, he had a serious smile on his face and took off his shirt again.

Perhaps because she was facing each other face to face, her face almost turned into a tomato.

“Phew… Have you ever learned martial arts or anything like that?”

“Hmm… I don’t know about martial arts. I know how to do this.”

I did a handstand in place.

“Anyone knows how to do that…?”

Before Jeong Soo-jin finished speaking, I lifted my palm from the ground. The story is about standing on your head with your fingers.

“Well… that’s kind of amazing, but…?!”

And then I took one more hand away. I stand on my head with only the fingers of one hand.

“What?! What on earth did you do!”

To be honest, I think we could reduce the number of fingers here, but I thought Sujin would really faint if we did that, so I held back.

I lightly lowered myself and stood back in place.

“Okay! This goes without saying!”

She takes out her smartphone and plays some videos.

“Are these the particularly difficult movements in callisthenics? Just use that handstand, this planche, and the front lever, and you’ll definitely pass! Is this a famous posture even among people who exercise? Even if it’s not well-known, you can’t help but pick it if you look at its visuals and performance!”

Jeong Soo-jin, who was very excited, started pouring out words. From that look, I could see how sincere she was about exercising.

In the end, under her active leadership, we were able to successfully film all of the submitted videos.

“Shooting is over!”

“Good job, Sujin. Thank you so much.”

“Oppa, you owe me something~. If it really sticks, take a big shot.”

Jeong Soo-jin winked.

“Ah, oppa. Do you know who appears on that program?”

“We haven’t even closed the application deadline yet, so how do you know who will show up?”

She shook her head.

“The general public really doesn’t know. However, the number of athletes who use YouTubers and social media is limited to some extent.”

“I don’t know much about that kind of thing.”

As I scratch the back of my head, Sujin Jeong tilts her head.

“If it was someone as big as my brother, there would have been someone across the street who knew him…”

“There are circumstances.”

To begin with, I didn’t come out of my room until recently, so I had very little contact with people.

Before my body became like this, I was even less interested in exercise influencers.

“Well, I’ll just give you a rough idea then!”

“Thank you. Then, if I pass, shall I listen to it then?”

“Okay… huh?”

Jeong Soo-jin suddenly looked up at me, who was close to her. I can see his blue eyes trembling.

“So… I’m feeling really hot right now, how about you?”
