“Come on! PULL! Get yourself up there! Magma was barking at Mangle who was struggling to hold on to the tree branch he was hanging on too. “How do you expect to get stronger if all youre doing is flapping those wings? You need to get those arms and legs working, like this! Magma jumped up onto a nearby tree branch and started doing pullups as if he were as light as air.

What the heck?! Mangle thought to himself. Magma had tied his wings to his back to keep him from cheating, which he desperately wished he could do right now.

Alright, good, you did 10 pullups. Took you all morning, but you did it, now its time for pushups, 10, lets go! Magma barked to the panting and drenched in sweat Mangle lying on the floor after falling from the tree branch in a flop.

Why did I decide to do this? Mangle began second guessing his desire to be stronger gasping for breath.
