Me, The Sovereign of the World? [Modern Evolution]

During her workout planning, Zoe Carter had a bold idea. Given her extreme coordination and control over her body, could she develop an incredibly efficient exercise method? Specifically, she wondered if she could control her muscles to tremble in a way that mimicked traditional workouts, but with greater efficiency.

If this was possible, it would undoubtedly surpass the effectiveness of conventional weightlifting. With this thought in mind, Zoe left Benny's phone number with the gym staff, mentioning that she might consider getting a membership, effectively sending away the persistent staff member trying to sell her a membership card.

While lying on the bench press, casually pushing the barbell, she attempted to control her muscles to perform tremor-based exercises. However, this was extremely difficult. While it might be possible to slightly move a single muscle group, sustaining a tremor in a specific muscle group was much more challenging. This level of control was beyond what an ordinary human could achieve.

But Zoe was no ordinary human.

As she continued her attempts, the muscles across her body began to tremble rhythmically, including those that most people could barely control. The initial attempt at this new method felt incredibly effective, rapidly consuming her physical energy and providing exceptional workout results. The tremors didn't last long before even someone with Zoe's stamina felt a bit exhausted.

This brought her a sense of satisfaction.

However, achieving this level of full-body tremor training could only be done two or three times a day. Controlling all muscles perfectly required more than just neural control; it needed the aid of Zoe's unique mental power.

Thus, this method not only trained her physical strength but also her mental power. Unlike physical strength, mental power needed a longer recovery period before she could perform the muscle tremors again.

Despite this, the effectiveness of this workout was extraordinary. It would become a daily routine for her. Thinking this, and feeling her physical strength nearing depletion, she quickly set the barbell back on the rack and stood up, albeit a bit unsteadily.

A nearby trainer, noticing her unsteady stance, hurried over to support her, clearly worried about any potential accidents.

Zoe instinctively stepped aside, avoiding the burly trainer's help. After all, who wouldn't flinch at the sight of a muscular giant rushing over?

"Are you alright?" the trainer asked seriously. "Did you overexert yourself by accident?" Seeing that Zoe could stand steadily, the trainer stopped approaching, scratching his cheek awkwardly.

"I'm fine. It was my first time trying this, so I didn't pace myself well," Zoe replied, nodding. Though her face had been pale, it quickly regained color as her ten-second recovery mechanism kicked in. Apart from some mental fatigue, she felt physically rejuvenated almost instantly.

She had indeed overdone it, not because of the bench press but due to the intense, full-body high-frequency muscle tremors. This dual workout of physical and mental power had drained her significantly, more so than sprinting ten kilometers with heavy weights.

The trainer, noticing Zoe's recovering complexion, relaxed a bit and said, "Who showed you around? They should have been here to ensure your safety. This oversight is our gym's fault, and I apologize..."

The trainer stopped mid-sentence as he glanced at the bench press, noticing the 120kg loaded on the barbell. He froze in place, turning back to Zoe with a look of disbelief.

He had seen this newcomer bench pressing several sets from a distance, but only now did he notice the weight. Benching 120kg was impressive, putting Zoe's strength above 99% of men.
