You decide to spend some of the time you have off, with a bit of <span class="mu-s">training</span> on the side. You were going to keep training anyway, but while the iron is hot...
You don't exactly have the best equipment, but you can use what you can scavenge. No dummies, but trash bags filled with packing peanuts, tied up to poles and tied with rubber hoses, that will have to work for now. You put on some of the video tapes in the garage.
“Krav Maga has no competitions, as it cannot have rules. Once rules are introduced, it is no longer Krav Maga. Real fights, in a real self defense situation, do not have honor. There is only the mechanics of biology, and the consequences of injury. To “win” any fight, one must consider the weakness of the human body as their primary targets, while protecting their own weak points.”
<span class="mu-s">BANG! FWIP- POW!</span>
The bag pops from a solid hit, spilling onto the floor.
“The primary human weakpoints are as follows; the neck, the eyes, the groin, the head, the joints. The secondary weak points are the nose, the ear lobes, fingers and toes, the soft lumbar and kidney regions BELOW the ribcage, and the xyphoid process.”
You aim your strikes towards these places as closely as you can, practicing with your imagination. Your technique is sharpened, your tonfa swiping and striking as accurately as a speartip at the body parts you project over your improvised target dummies. You lift weights with your inherited home gym, able to impressively lift over half your body weight, as well as cardiovascular exercise. Perhaps you could get stronger at some point, but without improvements to your equipment or training methods, <span class="mu-i">you're close to your peak</span>.
You've been putting it off, but finally you decide to consider it. You create an extra large dummy, measuring the distance from the floor, tying off his known height and attaching it with a ladder, estimating his arm's reach based on human anatomy principles from the library. You might be off by a little bit, but this is pretty close to what the <span class="mu-s">Viking</span> is like.
