The next day, Ino had made sure Sakura was up bright and early so they could head over to the training grounds to start up a new training program for her overly plump pink haired friend. It took some coercion to wake up the girl, but with a hearty breakfast and a promise of a nice dinner, she begrudgingly rose from her comfy bed and put on some workout clothes, consisting of sweatpants that fit poorly due to her massive backside, and a long sleeved top that rode up and showed off her plump pale belly. After doing some morning rituals, the two made their way to an out of the way training ground, Ino's reason being that Sakura could use the walk and the fact that she didn't have to embarrass herself in front of any potential passerbys. After a rousing half an hour of Sakura complaining and moaning about doing physical work, they had finally arrived in the clearing, the surrounding area covered with trees, a few stumps and a few training dolls as well.
"Well, we're here. Want to do a few warmups first before we start?"
"L-Look, I'm still not sure about this, why can't we start off nice and slow?" asked Sakura, placing a plump hand on her wide forearm out of nervousness. Letting out a sigh, Ino placed her hand on Sakura's shoulder.
"This is nice and slow. Trust me, we'll have your kick-ass bod back soon enough alright?" With a nod, Sakura agreed and Ino had led her into some stretching.

About an hour later, Ino simply gave up. A combination of Sakura's unwillingness to actually work out a bit, combined with the humid weather had lead to the platinum blonde to simply call it off for the day and let Sakura know that she did 'really well' for the first time. If any consolation, the walk back and forth was at least something physical that she did. Finally arriving back at her apartment, Ino was not shocked in the slightest when Sakura began to make herself a meal, using the 'healthy' ingredients Ino had bought the other day. With a sigh, Ino simply threw herself into the shower to wash away all of the sweat and small tears that she had amassed at the botched training session. After the long and hot shower, she changed and sat herself down next to Sakura at the couch. Eating a sandwich and glaring at the television intensely, Ino tried to think of anything that could convince her to have a bit more self control. A small idea gleaming in Ino's mind, perhaps she could get her to address the route of her issues.
'Naruto.'
