One of the biggest exemplifications of Japanese life can found in and on its train system or the Shinkansen. The trains here in Japan can be seen as a metaphor of Japanese life, its humanity, pop culture, and the technology all rolled into one; while moving over 130 mph, or for my metric friends, 210 km/h.

I'm totally a "Gym Rat", and getting your sweat on in Japan comes with the same techniques and rewards of learning and trying new workouts routines .
