關(guān)鍵詞：
Summer is in the air, so a lot of people are working out and watching what they eat: 夏天到了，很多人在健身、注意飲食
They might have started a little late: 現(xiàn)在開始好像遲了點(diǎn)
Better late than never: 遲做總比不做好
It's never too late: 只要做了，就為時(shí)不晚
A lot of our listeners are into fitness as well, so today we'll talk about some specialized fitness terms: 很多我們的聽眾也很愛健身，所以今天我們就來聊一聊專業(yè)的健身術(shù)語
Kill two birds with one stone: 一石二鳥
I could talk about this for days: 我三天三夜也說不完
We need to condense your knowledge and passion: 節(jié)目會(huì)濃縮你的健身知識和熱情
健身在英語里的N種說法
“健身”、“鍛煉”、“運(yùn)動(dòng)”在英語里有很多表達(dá)方式，但意思有微小的差別：
Working out: 健身，通常指在健身房
Exercise: 所有的鍛煉、運(yùn)動(dòng)基本都包括在內(nèi)
Bodybuilding: 健美
Fitness: 強(qiáng)身健體，形容全方位良好的身體狀態(tài)，涵蓋的范圍最廣
There're many expressions for that, but they mean slightly different things: 有很多表示“鍛煉”、“健身”的詞，但他們的意思有微妙的差別
Exercise incorporates everything, whether you're swimming or lifting: “Exercise”涵蓋的范圍最廣，各種形式的鍛煉，不管是游泳還是舉重，都算“exercising”
If you say you're working out, it implies that you're in the gym: 在英語里如果你跟別人說你在“work out”，大家普遍會(huì)認(rèn)為你是在健身房鍛煉
If you're running outdoors, you wouldn't say "I'm working out": 如果你在戶外跑步，你不會(huì)說“I'm working out”
You would say "I'm going for a run": 通常跑步會(huì)獨(dú)立說“I'm going for a run"
Bodybuilding: 健美
Muscles: 肌肉
健身是一種生活態(tài)度
Fitness更多是一種追求健康的生活態(tài)度，有些人堅(jiān)持運(yùn)動(dòng)，有些人吃得健康。
If you're into fitness, it doesn't mean you're into bodybuilding: 如果你說自己“into fitness”, 這個(gè)指的不是喜歡健美
You could be into yoga, eating right, focusing on your diet, running, swimming, rock climbing, martial arts: 你可能喜歡瑜伽，很注意飲食，或者是對跑步，游泳，攀巖，武術(shù)感興趣
Fitness implies a healthy and balanced lifestyle, not just exercise, but dietary as well: Fitness指的是一種很健康很均衡的生活方式，不僅是鍛煉，飲食也是一部分
A way of life: 一種生活方式、生活態(tài)度
值得注意的語言點(diǎn)
Spencer和Jenny這集節(jié)目里一直用到“into”這個(gè)詞。它的意思是很喜歡、很著迷一件事。如果你愛健身，口語里最好的說法就是“I'm into working out", "I'm into fitness".
談到健身、健康，“balanced"這個(gè)詞也很常用，意思就是均衡的、平衡的;
大家要特別注意Diet (形容詞dietary)這個(gè)詞，它可以是減肥的意思。比如“I'm going on a diet", 但是它另外一個(gè)意思就是飲食、膳食。
超實(shí)用的夏日健身英語
不同身型、不同說法
同樣是健身、練肌肉，英語里有很多不同的詞，來形容不同的身材;
If you say someone is fit, they don't have to be muscular, but they look toned at least: 說一個(gè)人“fit”, 他不一定要肌肉很大塊，但至少看上去身材不錯(cuò)
toned and tight: 身材緊致
In essence, they are healthy: 總而言之就是他們很健康
muscular: 肌肉發(fā)達(dá)
muscle head: 四肢發(fā)達(dá)、頭腦簡單暗，貶義詞
ripped: 肌肉精干型
If you say someone is ripped, it means their body fat percentage is low and they look sculpted: 說一個(gè)人"ripped"，那他應(yīng)該是體質(zhì)很低，肌肉看上去跟雕刻出來的一樣
You don't have to be huge to be ripped, for example Bruce Lee was ripped: 一個(gè)“ripped”的人不一定要人高馬大、大塊肌肉，比如李小龍，就是“ripped”的代表
最常說的肌肉類型，英語怎么說?
見過Spencer的人都知道，他的手臂可謂是讓人望而生畏!
Spencer's got huge arms: Spencer的手臂練得非常壯
Biceps: 二頭肌
Triceps: 三頭肌
Weightlifting, lift weights: 舉重
Body weight workouts, for example pull-ups: 靠身體自重來進(jìn)行的鍛煉，比如引體向上
Dumbbells: 啞鈴
Barbells: 杠鈴
人魚線、馬甲線
這兩個(gè)被炒得很熱的中文詞，英語怎么說?
可以叫V lines，因?yàn)榫€條很像V字型。
腹肌則是abs。美國人日常用abs一詞更多，V lines這個(gè)概念似乎沒有中國這么熱。比如Google, Instagram上的搜索，關(guān)鍵詞"abs"要比"v lines"多得多。
I want toned abs: 我想要緊致的腹肌
core strength exercises: 核心肌群訓(xùn)練
V lines (not mermaid lines): 人魚線
Many people are obsessed with getting these lines: 很多人特別迷這兩條線
Looking and feeling good is important, but sometimes people go overboard: 鍛煉是為了身材好，心情好，但有些人太極端了
A while back, the A4 waist meme was trending: 前一陣子，A4腰風(fēng)靡一時(shí)
I like a girl with a nice, developed waist: 我喜歡女生稍微有點(diǎn)腰
butt: 臀部
wide hips: 寬的胯部
A waist that's too thin might come off as sickly: 腰瘦過頭了可能看起來會(huì)有些病態(tài)
There's a point where something that's healthy becomes unhealthy: 凡事都有個(gè)度，如果做過了頭，健康的東西也變的不健康了
Too much of a good thing is a bad thing: 過猶不及
說到腹肌，美國網(wǎng)絡(luò)上有句話非常紅，也很有道理，分享給大家
30% gym, 70% diet: 三分靠健身、七分靠飲食
Abs are carved in the kitchen, built in the gym: 腹肌是在廚房里塑造出來的，在健身房里練出來的
常用健身器械英語名
Elliptical: 橢圓機(jī)
Treadmill: 跑步機(jī)
What's your workout routine? 你都練什么?
Spencer不愧是健身達(dá)人，去健身房一次最少也要45分鐘，一般一次要一個(gè)半到兩個(gè)半小時(shí)?？磥硪鲂Ч?，還是得下苦功夫!Jenny去健身最喜歡的項(xiàng)目是ab cruncher，就是專門練腹肌的一個(gè)“虐腹神器”。
Ab cruncher: 腹肌鍛煉器
Anaerobic: 無氧的
Cardio, aerobic: 有氧的
What's your workout routine?: 你健身一般做哪些項(xiàng)目?
How long do your workouts normally last?: 一般去健身房一次鍛煉多久?
The shortest is around 45 minutes, but usually I work out for one and a half to two and ahalf hours: 最少是45分鐘，當(dāng)我通常會(huì)花一個(gè)半到兩個(gè)半小時(shí)
健康飲食最重要
想要好身材，不僅要運(yùn)動(dòng)， 最根本的是健康、科學(xué)的飲食。圖上這句話，就很好概括了這一點(diǎn)："You are what you eat."
Since summer's around the corner, and a lot of people want to get in shape, so what's the best routine for losing weight? 夏天快到了，很多人想塑身，那么要減肥的話怎么鍛煉最好呢?
How many times a week should we work out, and what kind of exercise should we do? 一周要去健身幾次，最好做一些什么運(yùn)動(dòng)?
Exercise is important, but you are what you eat, so food is the biggest factor: 鍛煉很重要，但吃才是最重要的
Some people will starve themselves and eat very little, but that's a big mistake: 有的人不吃，或者吃得很少，但這是個(gè)大誤區(qū)
If you don't eat, it slows down your metabolism: 如果你不吃，新陳代謝就會(huì)慢
When that happens, your body goes into survival mode by preserving the fat and feast on your muscle: 這樣一來你的身體會(huì)進(jìn)入一種求生模式，存儲(chǔ)脂肪，消耗肌肉
You might weigh less, but your body fat goes up: 也許你體重會(huì)減下來，但你的體脂會(huì)升高
You might become "skinny fat": 可能變成瘦胖子
It's not about how much you weigh but how much fat is on your body: 關(guān)鍵不是你體重多少，而是你身體上有多少脂肪
Spencer has given me a lot of workout tips, and whatever abs I have is all thanks to him:Spencer 給了我很多的健身建議，我有的腹肌都是多虧他
Six-pack abs, six-packs: 六塊腹肌
I don't think women need really developed abs. It's kinda gross: 我不覺得女生需要腹肌，怪嚇人的
Health is important and balance is important too: 健康很重要，均衡適度也很重要
最后我們說說在美國健身的事兒
美國健身房多少錢?
在北美，健身可以說是一個(gè)全民運(yùn)動(dòng)。上期節(jié)目中我們也提到Adam的爸爸七十歲了還每天去健身房健身。
那在美國健身價(jià)格如何呢?
許多美國的大學(xué)都有自己的健身房，一般對在校學(xué)生是免費(fèi)開放的，就算收費(fèi)也非常的便宜，可能兩塊錢一次之類的。
如果你在商業(yè)健身房辦卡，一般一個(gè)月40、50美金，年卡可能五、六百刀。
小編所在的地方有些健身房會(huì)推出家庭套餐，鼓勵(lì)大家?guī)?dòng)家人一起健身，但前提是要兩個(gè)人住址一樣才可以辦理。
美國健身房禮儀，用完器械一定要擦!
健身房也有健身房的禮節(jié)，美國著名網(wǎng)站Huffington Post有篇文章整理出了13 Rules of Gym Etiquette，13條健身房的禮節(jié)，小編這里抽兩條特別重要的說：
Wipe off your sweat after you work out: 運(yùn)動(dòng)完把汗都擦掉
*美國健身房器械旁邊通常都會(huì)放wet wipes(濕紙巾), 目的不是擦你自己，而是擦器械*
If you can bench 300 lbs, congratulations. Brag about it on Facebook, but don’t leave all the plates on the bar for the next person to remove: 如果你杠鈴能舉300磅，恭喜你!但咬炫耀的話請上臉書，別把杠鈴片都留在桿子上，等著下個(gè)人幫你卸。
前面說到我們好多聽眾都愛健身。也許健身、學(xué)英語都會(huì)給身心靈帶來巨大的改變和提升,帶給我們一種蛻變"transformation"，這種感受真的很美妙!
