Fresh-faced Noah is back, this time stripped out of his usual singlets and into a pair of army-green posing trunks. He’s got obvious potential, but he’s still a little soft around the edges — the kind of chubby build that says the man muscles haven’t fully kicked in yet. Knowing he needs guidance, Noah agrees to submit himself to Ronnie Pearl’s Drill Sergeant persona for some much-needed training.

Pearl immediately puts him through his paces with jumping jacks and push-ups, barking orders while Noah answers with an eager, breathless, “Yes, Sir!” But when Noah can’t manage a one-armed push-up, Pearl drops down to demonstrate how it’s done by a real man. Veins swell, biceps harden, and that surge of dominance-fueled testosterone makes it clear Pearl is going to enjoy what comes next. Before any wrestling even starts, Noah is pushed into squats, crunches, and burpees, now required to respond with an even more submissive, “Yes, Sir! Alpha Sir!”

Pearl relentlessly tears into his Beta, demanding that Noah do the work to get “hard.” Whether that means muscle or something else is left hanging in the air. When Pearl grows frustrated with Noah’s softness — physical and otherwise — he boots him down to the mat, yanks him back up by the hair, and clamps on a vein-popping chin-lock. Pearl flexes a single, vascular bicep and grinds his chiseled pecs forward, snarling, “Are you going to get hard, Beta?” Noah can barely squeak out a response, his face flushed as Pearl leans fully into cruel heel control.

Noah’s biggest mistake is screaming, “I give up!” 

From there, Pearl only escalates — flattening Noah on his back, planting one boot on his ankle, and stretching the other leg impossibly wide. You’ll either be amazed at how much punishment Noah can take, or wince waiting for that wishbone to snap.  

This is a total squash, with Pearl methodically maneuvering his soft, struggling recruit into excruciating holds. Noah proves he can suffer… and suffer… and suffer some more.
