Ahh chest day, one of the more enjoyable daily workouts followed in fitness regiments. So enjoyable infact that everybody likes to begin their week with it.
Unfortunately, supply doesnât always meet demand⊠and when youâre at the gym during its peak hours, the pickings for weights and machines are slimâŠ
Antithetical to such a word, Videl was spotted by the gym ready William, having been pacing around the crowded fitness center trying to find somebody to work in with; The girl seemed to be struggling at the bench press, arms trembling with each rep. She seemed familiar to the auburn haired manâŠÂ  Not necessarily recognizing her someone he knew but certainly resembling somebody he knows of.
âDo you need a spotter?â
As opposed to your rather sunny disposition towards working out, the flabby martial artist had some differing opinions on the matter. When she was still slim and trim, Videlâs attitude towards loved coming to a gym like this and pushing her body to the limits. Nowadays⊠not so much.
âAt least Iâm done with the treadmillâŠâ
Videl thought to herself as she lifted the barbell up and down, her biceps burning as they got the first real workout that wasnât lifting food into her mouth. Her eyes briefly flickered over to you as she did one final lift to place the barbell on the rack above her.
Once done she laid there for a moment to catch her breath. She wiped some sweat from her brow with a towel and sat up straight on the bench; taking a swig from her bottled water before finally addressing you.
âItâs fine, I was -huff- just finishing up here anyways. Machine is all yours.â The flabby woman said as she pushed herself up from her seated position, taking a few tries before she shakily got to her feet. âUgh⊠By the way, some of the weights were missing when I got here, so you canât go too crazy.â
Standing a whole foot taller than Videl, William's frame certainly contrasted hers; Lean and Defined with muscularity akin to tempered glass while the daughter of Mr Satan could best be described as a tea pot: Short and Stout "Oh, thanks for the heads up about the plates... I swear, some people never learned how to put their toys away as kids." Sheepishly chuckling, Will eyed the unevenly supplied barbell weights before turning his attention back to her. Something seemed.. odd... she was most certainly out of shape yet she clearly had some semblance of exercise experience... Her form was there and there was a confidence in her movements that newbies didn't have... "You got some really good form. How long have you been going here? I haven't seen around. Oh! I'm Will by the way." Out of reflexive formality, he'd awkwardly extend his hand for a handshake
The pudgy woman perks up slightly at your compliment. âOh thanks! I used to come here pretty much everyday, but uh⊠Iâve been kind of slacking as of late.â She said sheepishly as she tugged down the hem of her tank top, though the ill-fitting garment had no chance of covering Videlâs blubbery belly.
It was true that her form was reminiscent of one who was experienced with gym equipment and etiquette, but her body told quite the opposite. Soft and doughy without any trace visible muscle, she looked very out of place in a gym filled with those possessing six-packs and toned physiques.
âThe name is Videl by the way, itâs nice to meet you Will.â She responded politely as she returned your handshake with a firm grip.
âThe pleasureâs all mine.â If Videl hadnât said it, that handshake would have served as an indication of the girlâs former strength. Part of him even felt a little flustered by the raw strength buried beneath her adipose reserves. âIâm sure muscle memory will help with getting back your progress in no time. What do you have left for your workout if you donât mind me asking.â Will did everything in his power to not glance downwards at the womanâs gut and chest, maintaining friendly eye contact with a neck arched downward.
Videlâs face soured somewhat as she was reminded of what she needed to do next. âWell I already got in my cardio and weightlifting for today, so I guess all that is left is working on my core.â She grumbled as the unpleasant thoughts of doing planks and sit ups crossed her mind, made even more embarrassing by the possibility of someone watching her. Even with her years of experience of doing exercises, her belly made for one hell of an obstacle.
"Would you like some help being anchored?" Realizing such an offer would involve physical contact, Will's cheeks heated and gained a slight red hue. "If you're doing sit ups a-and are comfortable with it, of course. I just know how daunting it can feel doing this alone." Of course... He left out the part where he was a young scrawny preteen when going to the gym at first... but the intent was there. "I only have the bench and stretching left, so it's not an inconvenienced."
Videl hesitated for a moment; internally she wanted to turn down the request and secretly head home after Will was gone, but at the same time she didnât want to come off as rude, plus she really needed to work off this gut. Besides, having someone as fit as him might give her some motivation.
âI mean if youâre okay about it, sure.â Turning around she made her way to an open area of the gym, opening her gym bag and taking out a yoga mat before laying it on the floor. She decided to start with planks first and laid herself on the ground.
âTell me if I need to fix my form or anything.â She asked before setting a timer on her phone for a minute and propping herself up on her forearms and toes.
Keeping her posture at least somewhat straight, her overburdened abdominals began to feel the burn. Within twenty seconds her back began to arch somewhat as she tired, but more pressing matter alongside the exertion caused Videlâs face to suddenly flush a twinge of red.
âSince when did my gut start touching the ground..!?â She said to herself internally.
To be quite honest, Will didnât quite know where to keep his eyes at. Videlâs back would include that big olâ back side of hers⊠meanwhile looking at her front would make it seem like he was ogling her chestâŠ
He knew that the woman had prior gym experience yet it still felt so odd seeing someone of her size doing that⊠speaking of size, there was an issue⊠Videlâs gut was so big it was touching the floor!
âJust keep that back straight like that and youâre golden!â Will wasnât sure just how long Videl was going to last.. but she certainly wasnât going to quit until her body does⊠it was pretty admirable.
Videl attempted to right her posture further, much to the displeasure of her now aching core. About ten seconds her body began to noticeably sink lower as she felt her middle squish onto her mat even further. A few more moments pass right before she released her held breath with a deep gasp and sprawled on the mat.
She panted with exhaustion, rolling onto her back as her stomach and chest heaved with every winded breath. It was certainly impressive that Videl managed to hold a decent form at her size for about 37 secondsâ half of what she wanted, but impressive nonetheless. Though it was a shadow of the multi-minute long planks she was capable of doing when she was still fit.
âHaah⊠haah⊠yâknow⊠I think Iâll just⊠skip the sit ups⊠ughâŠâ
"Yeah. I'm sure that'll be better for us." Passing Videl her water bottle, Will nods at her decision of fast forwarding to sit ups. Staying quiet as she took her sweet time regaining her strength, even refilling the former fighter's water bottle. Feeling rather awkward and getting a sense for a how embarrassed Videl felt, William felt compelled to speak up as she got ready, "You from around here?"
Gulping down the water with gusto, Videl felt somewhat rejuvenated from the small reprieve. âNo, Iâm from Satan City. I used to do be one of the top martial artists there too, but I imagine it might be a bit outlandish to think about now isnât it?â She chuckled awkwardly as she gave her hefty belly a firm pat.
âI could show you some pictures from some of the tournaments I took part in if you donât believe me.â She began rapidly scrolling backwards through her phoneâs gallery to find a photo of her at her fittest.
"Did you move here recently?" Will asked, a bit curious to see what exactly Videl looked prior to her... growth. Sheepishly chuckling at her gut pat. It looked so damn fun to squish.... "You don't have to show anything, I believe you. But go ahead if you what.." He couldn't help wonder just what caused the lady to get so big..
If you deigned to look over her shoulder as she was scrolling back in time, you could see that the Videl on the phone getting thinner and thinner with each rapid swipe until-.
âAha, found it.â She paused on a photo before handing you her phone and on it was a much different Videl than the chubby lady sat near you, one who was holding a championship belt above her head. Back then she had not an ounce of excess flab, her belly was flat, her limbs were toned, and her rear was tight. This was a Videl who had the body of a true fighter.
âI know you said you believed me, but itâs probably crazy seeing how thin I used to be isnât it?â
There are so many little things changed as her body grew.. How her triceps drooped and face rounded. The way she turned from thick to chubby to fat.. "I think it's kinda fascinating to see how women's figures differ as they put on weight. I must sound like a weirdo..." Will would laugh awkwardly again, trying to think of a way to stir back his odd ramble... "You won the tenkaichi budokaI Junior divison? That's insane! What changed if you don't mind me asking?" God damn it William..
âNo itâs fine, itâs probably jarring seeing my stomach go from a pair of abs to a gut like this.â Videl said as she gestured to her exposed belly.
âW-well anyways, after I won that tournament I decided I wanted take sometime to recover and relax. So I gave myself a month to do and eat whatever I wanted before getting back into the swing of things. Though as you can see⊠things got a little out of hand.â She said as she flicked through more pictures on her phone.
Now that the timeline was going the right way you could see how her pictures went from selfies showing off the results of her workout routine to her posing with big meals at a restaurant or participating in eating challenges.
Videl always had quite a large appetite, but now was that she stopped denying herself foods that would have otherwise been too fattening for her carefully constructed diet. This on top of the fact that she had largely stopped working out meant that those calories had nothing to do but be stored as flab.
âEventually though a month turned into three, then six, then a year, and all the while my weight was creeping up. Ugh, if I had actually gotten my fat ass in gear earlier Iâd probably still be skinny, but no.â
You saw as her body slowly expanded outwards, her tight figure forged through years of discipline melting away under this sudden tide of gluttony. Her abs were layered over with a plush blanket of chub, her muscled thighs began to squish into each other, and her tight butt developed an unheard of amount of jiggle. Of course her gain did not simply stop thereâ no, she kept getting flabbier.
âI guess I had gotten too accustomed to living the lazy girl lifestyle and I convinced myself that I could just work off the extra weight later. âItâs just a couple of poundsâ I told myself. Eventually I had to face the truth when my scale told me I weighed⊠270 poundsâŠâ Her face flushed crimson red as she bashfully finished her sentence.
âAnd as you can see⊠I havenât been very successful at slimming back down.â
âI think you carry it pretty well, regardless of if you lose the weightâŠâ Will mentioned absentmindedly as he eyed Videlâs photo reel, taking note of her slim body like he had discovered a relic lost to time âby the way, are you ready for the sit ups or do we still need a sec?â He kept the occasional glance at her mid section as he and her stood together, her bare belly peaking from their tanktop.
âO-oh, umm⊠thanks.â Videl said as she bashfully rubbed the back of her neck, unsure of what else to say in response. A few moments pass as you continue to scroll through pictures of a much different Videl, when you ask if she wants to continue her workout she audibly groans a bit. âI guess I aught to get it over with.â
As she dropped down with her back on the floor mat, taking a brief moment to knead her doughy belly, the purpose of which was to massage some of the lingering soreness out of her abdominals.
Afterwards, she put herself in position with her knees up, feet on the floor, and hands behind her head. Taking a deep breath she started.
âŠ
Or at least she tried to. Though her face visibly strained from the effort and her back had left the ground, but she only made it about halfway to completing a full sit up before her feet left the ground and the pudgy woman subsequently flopped back down back on the mat.
âUghh⊠I guess planking took a bit more out of me than I thought...â
Keeping his hands wrapped around Videlâs ankles, Will felt the former fighterâs legs trembling like a newborn giraffeâs as she lifted herself from the ground, core muscles tightening and pulling before giving out, falling back to the yoga mat with a plop.
âJust makes how long you lasted earlier all the more impressive.â Will chimed, still impressed at the tenacity buried within Videlâs layers of fat. âDid you want to take another breather before doing another set? Or did we want to do stretches? You felt pretty tense when I was anchoring you.â
âNo, I can do this⊠just gotta⊠try harder.â Stubborn as ever, Videl took a deep breath before trying again with redoubled effort. You could feel her straining as she slowly rose off the ground, a few beads of sweat rolling down her face as she got a bit further than last time. However, despite this there was one big round reason why her attempts were unsuccessful.
Like a flabby roadblock, her padded waist had simply gotten too fat for her to do sit ups. Though sheâd never outwardly admit that. Nevertheless, the results were more or less the same as she flopped back to the ground. Her uncooperative tummy wobbling before you like a bowl of jelly from the motion and her ragged breath as she lay defeated. She winced as a jolt of discomfort shot through her overworked core.
âNgh..! Ough⊠I think I overdid it a littleâŠâ
âHave you pulled something? I know some stretches.â Will asked in gentle concern as he watched her stomach rise and fall like the tides. Having refilled Videlâs water bottle, heâd slide it near the black haired girl for when she was ready to drink it. Not knowing her enough to make contact like that, William instead resorted to his words yet again: âIâm sure you can do it but you have been working out for the past hour or so⊠Even if your body canât handle it like it used to, your mindsetâs clearly still there and thatâs like⊠half the battle already.â
Videl lethargically waved off Willâs concerns. âN-no Iâm good, I think Iâm done exercising for the day. Being honest I donât think Iâm moving anytime soon.â A sheepish smile ran across her lips as she tried hefting herself up from her sprawled out position to no avail, the out of shape woman was just simply too exhausted.
Instead she just took the bottle into her grasp as swiftly chug down its contents with impressive speed. Eventually managing to drain it all into her belly, finishing off with a soft belch.
Hearing the burp softly reverb across Videl's throat, Will hides his forming blush by extending out his hand to grab onto for whenever the big brawler could stand back up. "Are you alright?" His voice was gentle, intrigued and genuine instead of being forced from asking out of courtesy. "I don't know if you drove here but i don't mind dropping you if you're exhausted." That and it was getting rather dark out...
âIâm good, just really tired out is all.â She took his hand and with surprising ease as able to lug the hefty Videl to her feet. Her entire body was rather sore from her workout, her legs in particular were starting to feel like jello after her aforementioned time on the treadmill. Hauling over three hundred pounds of unfit fighter tended to be quite exhausting.
âI walked here, but you donât have to worry about it! I can have someone pick me up. Besides, Iâm probably going to stop for food on the way back and I donât want to waste your time or anything.â Seemingly at the mere mention of food, her stomach decided that now would be the perfect time to make its hungry state known to the both of them with a deep-.
GrRrroOoAaRrR!!
That visibly jiggled the flab on her middle. Immediately Videl stiffened up as her hands shot to her growling tummy, hands squishing slightly into the adipose in an attempt to silence her ravenous gut, her face crimson with heat.
It was almost fascinating⊠Her stomach growl reverberated with such intensity across her entire abdomen; Not to mention just how sudden it was, making William flinch instinctively âSorry. I just get startled easily⊠but no worries. This ainât waisting my time or anything.. I usually donât even go to the gym at this time but I just wanted to get my apartment. Not that itâs bad or anything⊠Just donât want to be in the same space all the time, yâknow?â Scratching the back of his head, Will clears his throat as he continues to improvise. âWatcha gonna get if you donât mind me asking? I still donât really know the go to spots around here.â
