Kana was really starting to wonder why she had bothered to stop and talk to the little wimp. She of course knew she'd been a beginner at some point. But come on... She didnt think she'd struggled with a little warmup like this since before she'd even joined the academy. He had to have some other sort of impressive skill, otherwise she wasn't entirely sure how he'd even passed the exam. She scoffed lightly at his mention of getting better at taijutsu.

"Well as a bit of an expert on taijutsu things, I can tell you you're gonna need to work a lot more on your conditioning before you worry about that stuff..."

Being the lovely person that she was, Kana would let him quite literally sweat it out for a bit longer before removing the pressure of her foot against his back. She stepped away from the genin, giving him a moment to relax and breathe a bit. 

"So, you gonna introduce yourself? You kind of asked first ya know..."

He just fell to the ground when he was given a break, man, this was tough! Though he could make it. When she had spoke again, he wondered how he could respond to her. Thinking for a minute, he figured that he could just say his own name. He let out a sigh, and began to speak.

"I'm Akimichi Hachirou. Nice to meet you too."

He groaned as he got back to it, though this time he was getting faster and faster. He seemed to be getting stronger, though of course he was just trying to boost himself up by thinking about things that he would hate to happen. That's what he did to boost himself up from where he was currently. It was an effective tactic, so far. He was pushing himself more and more, putting more work on his muscles and exerting them more. Though as he did do that, he felt as if he was able to go on for longer as well.

"Right . . I'll just have to work harder . . Then . ." He spoke as he did the push-ups, for now, that would be the only thing he'd do. Next time they met however, he was going to punch every single tree here and leave a dent in the bark. Just to show her.

The girl smirked as she looked down at him. He certainly wasn't the best, but she had to admit that part of her admired his determination. Kana had almost expected him the be the type to give up easily considering the state she'd found him in. But she was pleasantly surprised that be genuinely seemed interested in getting stronger. 

"Alright, I think you've done enough for now, Hachirou... Lemme take a look at that hand and make sure you didn't break anything earlier. Trees can be quite tough from what I've learned."

She held a hand out expectantly, obviously not about to give him a choice in the matter. She didn't need people thinking she'd gone and broken a genin's hand or anything.
