Option 2:

 Sir Devoir happens to follow a very strict regime of training, even in the off-season. Still, the first week of the off-season for him is always dedicated to having a vacation, usually back home to Japan or occasionally to the Caribbean to enjoy the sun. Once that is done though, he hwdda back home and begins to focus on training again, making sure to take breaks every now and then so as not to completely break his body down. His philosophy on the off-season is that you should always be training to be your best, but there will always be times where you need a rest and should take some time for yourself for at least a week starting out.

 During the offseason he will also be studying to help keep his mind sharp, and has actually occasionally taken summer courses on history and biology in order to help in the pursuit. Keeping his mind and body sharp, but not overdoing and making sure his body is always ready and willing, that is Sir Devoir's offseasons.
