With meditative and precise motions, Shara wrapped the tape around her hands, securing it firmly but to too tight. She dropped the roll of tape onto the bench and then moved over to the mat with the kick bag. Shorts, a t-shirt and trainers on, Shara was here for a workout and a bit of stress relief. In this case, it meant beating the crap out of something.

The holosuite was set up for an open training time, so the program was a basic gym one where people could use the machines and weights, or use the extensive mats for other exercise.

Bouncing on her toes and shaking out the tension in her legs and shoulders, she struck out with a solid punch. It moved the bag only a little but she wasn’t aiming for damage, just precision. Eyes laser focused, she still maintained her awareness of any people who might join her. A side kick made the bag move more and she smiled and she rolled her shoulders, feeling the stress slowly seep out.
