健身在英语里的N种说法

“健身”、“锻炼”、“运动”在英语里有很多表达方式，但意思有微小的差别：
Working out: 健身，通常指在健身房
Exercise: 所有的锻炼、运动基本都包括在内
Bodybuilding: 健美
Fitness: 强身健体，形容全方位良好的身体状态，涵盖的范围最广
There're many expressions for that, but they mean slightly different things: 有很多表示“锻炼”、“健身”的词，但他们的意思有微妙的差别
Exercise incorporates everything, whether you're swimming or lifting: “Exercise”涵盖的范围最广，各种形式的锻炼，不管是游泳还是举重，都算“exercising”
If you say you're working out, it implies that you're in the gym: 在英语里如果你跟别人说你在“work out”，大家普遍会认为你是在健身房锻炼
If you're running outdoors, you wouldn't say "I'm working out": 如果你在户外跑步，你不会说“I'm working out”
You would say "I'm going for a run": 通常跑步会独立说“I'm going for a run"
Bodybuilding: 健美
Muscles: 肌肉

健身是一种生活态度
Fitness更多是一种追求健康的生活态度，有些人坚持运动，有些人吃得健康。
If you're into fitness, it doesn't mean you're into bodybuilding: 如果你说自己“into fitness”, 这个指的不是喜欢健美
You could be into yoga, eating right, focusing on your diet, running, swimming, rock climbing, martial arts: 你可能喜欢瑜伽，很注意饮食，或者是对跑步，游泳，攀岩，武术感兴趣
Fitness implies a healthy and balanced lifestyle, not just exercise, but dietary as well: Fitness指的是一种很健康很均衡的生活方式，不仅是锻炼，饮食也是一部分
A way of life: 一种生活方式、生活态度

值得注意的语言点
Spencer和Jenny这集节目里一直用到“into”这个词。它的意思是很喜欢、很着迷一件事。如果你爱健身，口语里最好的说法就是“I'm into working out", "I'm into fitness".
谈到健身、健康，“balanced"这个词也很常用，意思就是均衡的、平衡的；
大家要特别注意Diet (形容词dietary)这个词，它可以是减肥的意思。比如“I'm going on a diet", 但是它另外一个意思就是饮食、膳食。

不同身型、不同说法
同样是健身、练肌肉，英语里有很多不同的词，来形容不同的身材；
If you say someone is fit, they don't have to be muscular, but they look toned at least: 说一个人“fit”, 他不一定要肌肉很大块，但至少看上去身材不错
toned and tight: 身材紧致
In essence, they are healthy: 总而言之就是他们很健康
muscular: 肌肉发达
muscle head: 四肢发达、头脑简单暗，贬义词
ripped: 肌肉精干型
If you say someone is ripped, it means their body fat percentage is low and they look sculpted: 说一个人"ripped"，那他应该是体质很低，肌肉看上去跟雕刻出来的一样
You don't have to be huge to be ripped, for example Bruce Lee was ripped: 一个“ripped”的人不一定要人高马大、大块肌肉，比如李小龙，就是“ripped”的代表

最常说的肌肉类型，英语怎么说？
见过Spencer的人都知道，他的手臂可谓是让人望而生畏！
Spencer's got huge arms: Spencer的手臂练得非常壮
Biceps: 二头肌
Triceps: 三头肌
Weightlifting, lift weights: 举重
Body weight workouts, for example pull-ups: 靠身体自重来进行的锻炼，比如引体向上
Dumbbells: 哑铃
Barbells: 杠铃

人鱼线、马甲线
这两个被炒得很热的中文词，英语怎么说？
可以叫V lines，因为线条很像V字型。
腹肌则是abs。美国人日常用abs一词更多，V lines这个概念似乎没有中国这么热。比如Google, Instagram上的搜索，关键词"abs"要比"v lines"多得多。
I want toned abs: 我想要紧致的腹肌
core strength exercises: 核心肌群训练
V lines (not mermaid lines): 人鱼线
Many people are obsessed with getting these lines: 很多人特别迷这两条线
Looking and feeling good is important, but sometimes people go overboard: 锻炼是为了身材好，心情好，但有些人太极端了
A while back, the A4 waist meme was trending: 前一阵子，A4腰风靡一时
I like a girl with a nice, developed waist: 我喜欢女生稍微有点腰
butt: 臀部
wide hips: 宽的胯部
A waist that's too thin might come off as sickly: 腰瘦过头了可能看起来会有些病态
There's a point where something that's healthy becomes unhealthy: 凡事都有个度，如果做过了头，健康的东西也变的不健康了
Too much of a good thing is a bad thing: 过犹不及

说到腹肌，美国网络上有句话非常红，也很有道理，分享给大家
30% gym, 70% diet: 三分靠健身、七分靠饮食
Abs are carved in the kitchen, built in the gym: 腹肌是在厨房里塑造出来的，在健身房里练出来的

常用健身器械英语名
Elliptical: 椭圆机
Treadmill: 跑步机
What's your workout routine? 你都练什么？
Spencer不愧是健身达人，去健身房一次最少也要45分钟，一般一次要一个半到两个半小时。看来要出效果，还是得下苦功夫！Jenny去健身最喜欢的项目是ab cruncher，就是专门练腹肌的一个“虐腹神器”。
Ab cruncher: 腹肌锻炼器
Anaerobic: 无氧的
Cardio, aerobic: 有氧的
What's your workout routine?: 你健身一般做哪些项目？
How long do your workouts normally last?: 一般去健身房一次锻炼多久？
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分钟，当我通常会花一个半到两个半小时

健康饮食最重要
想要好身材，不仅要运动， 最根本的是健康、科学的饮食。图上这句话，就很好概括了这一点："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，那么要减肥的话怎么锻炼最好呢？
How many times a week should we work out, and what kind of exercise should we do? 一周要去健身几次，最好做一些什么运动？
Exercise is important, but you are what you eat, so food is the biggest factor: 锻炼很重要，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，但这是个大误区
If you don't eat, it slows down your metabolism: 如果你不吃，新陈代谢就会慢
When that happens, your body goes into survival mode by preserving the fat and feast on your muscle: 这样一来你的身体会进入一种求生模式，存储脂肪，消耗肌肉
You might weigh less, but your body fat goes up: 也许你体重会减下来，但你的体脂会升高
You might become "skinny fat": 可能变成瘦胖子
It's not about how much you weigh but how much fat is on your body: 关键不是你体重多少，而是你身体上有多少脂肪
Spencer has given me a lot of workout tips, and whatever abs I have is all thanks to him:Spencer 给了我很多的健身建议，我有的腹肌都是多亏他
Six-pack abs, six-packs: 六块腹肌
I don't think women need really developed abs. It's kinda gross: 我不觉得女生需要腹肌，怪吓人的
Health is important and balance is important too: 健康很重要，均衡适度也很重要

最后我们说说在美国健身的事儿
美国健身房多少钱？
在北美，健身可以说是一个全民运动。上期节目中我们也提到Adam的爸爸七十岁了还每天去健身房健身。
那在美国健身价格如何呢？
许多美国的大学都有自己的健身房，一般对在校学生是免费开放的，就算收费也非常的便宜，可能两块钱一次之类的。
如果你在商业健身房办卡，一般一个月40、50美金，年卡可能五、六百刀。
小编所在的地方有些健身房会推出家庭套餐，鼓励大家带动家人一起健身，但前提是要两个人住址一样才可以办理。

美国健身房礼仪，用完器械一定要擦！
健身房也有健身房的礼节，美国著名网站Huffington Post有篇文章整理出了13 Rules of Gym Etiquette，13条健身房的礼节，小编这里抽两条特别重要的说：
Wipe off your sweat after you work out: 运动完把汗都擦掉
＊美国健身房器械旁边通常都会放wet wipes(湿纸巾), 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: 如果你杠铃能举300磅，恭喜你！但咬炫耀的话请上脸书，别把杠铃片都留在杆子上，等着下个人帮你卸。
前面说到我们好多听众都爱健身。也许健身、学英语都会给身心灵带来巨大的改变和提升,带给我们一种蜕变"transformation"，这种感受真的很美妙！
