Sasuke nodded. So he would catch up over time. It seemed Kakashi really intended to make him stronger. This training was much better and harder than the one the academy had them do. Sakura was scared. How would she manage to stay a proper lady with the training her sensei planned to have them do? And why was Naruto already that much ahead?
"Okay, next part is coordination. Naruto I would like your assistance." Kakashi took out a scroll from his pocket and opened it. He unsealed about a hundred poles. "Have your shadow clones place them in three lines with a distance of a metre between the poles. The lines are to be ten metres next to each other." Kakashi ordered.
Naruto nodded and made twenty shadow clones that took the poles and placed them in lines.
"I want you to run slalom through the poles three times over to the other side and back. I will take your times. Ready, set, go." He said and the three ran again.
Kakashi had them do fifty push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups, jumping jacks and lifting weights each next. Then he let them walk on their hands through the slalom course. He wrote down all their times. Finally he declared it enough, much to the relief of Sakura.
"Okay, this is what we will be doing every day for warm up. As running around the training ground isn't that interesting I want you all to meet at the gate at six each morning to run two laps around the village. That's only for the beginning though, we will increase the laps once you get better stamina. After that we will start with stretching and strength exercises. Sakura, you will do thirty of all the exercises we did today. Sasuke, you will do fifty, Naruto eighty. That should take you about the same time. If one of you still has time until Naruto is finished, add a few repeats. After that I will tell you the exercise for the day." Kakashi said.
Sakura looked ill, Naruto and Sasuke happy. That would be good training.
"Okay, I told you we would work on formations after our workout. We will go through different situations, I will tell you the standard formations and then you will practice them." Kakashi instructed them.
It was lunchtime and Sakura lay on the ground groaning. This was not what she had expected from training. Kakashi handed out lunch to them and gave them bottles with water in which vitamins had been added. Naruto and Sasuke started eating and drank their water without comment. Sakura finally managed to push herself up. She didn't care about her diet at the moment. She was hungry and needed to eat something. She looked at the lunchbox and saw that there were some rice balls, some grilled fish, some green beans and tomatoes.
"Okay, while you eat, I want to give you some instructions for your meals. For breakfast, eat enough to last you five hours, but make sure it is balanced. For the drink take milk, cereals are good, some dark bread, cheese, sausage, eggs, and fruits. I will provide you with lunch to make sure you get enough nutrients for the first week, after that you should have an idea what to pack in your lunchboxes and how much. For dinner, meat and fish are always good, some noodles, rice, vegetables. You can also have sweet desserts, it won't matter if you eat sweets as I said, you will work the calories off no problem.
"Go to bed early enough, because you will have to get up at five to get ready for training and eat breakfast without haste. Bring some snacks for short breaks with you. I recommend fruit or vegetables, some sandwiches or rice balls. They are meant to give you back some energy without being heavy." Kakashi lectured.
He would do this correctly. And from tomorrow on he would join his team in their exercises. If he needed to get back to his old strength and increase it, he would have to use the time. He expected to be back to full strength in three months. Then he could work on getting better.
Once his genin had eaten, he gave them half an hour off to relax. They could do whatever they wanted. He knew Sasuke and Sakura needed the recovery time. Naruto would probably be able to go on. Sakura seemed relieved about the break, Sasuke accepted it well enough and Naruto lay down to take a nap.
Kakashi led his team to a group of trees that had nearly the same height.
"Okay, as I told you, one of the first exercises a genin has to learn is climbing vertical surfaces. Here in Konoha we do this by tree-climbing. This exercise has a double benefit. For those with bigger chakra reserves like Naruto and Sasuke it mainly helps them learn how to better control their chakra next to the ability to climb all surfaces without problem. The better you control your chakra, the less chakra you waste using your jutsu, which means you can go longer in a fight and use more jutsu. For somebody with small reserves like Sakura this is also an endurance exercise. By repeatedly doing this exercise until you master it, you build up your reserves, which will also lead to you being able to keep going longer." Kakashi explained and then walked up the tree without using his hands.
