These are the six exercises that any office worker can do at their desk to stay healthy.
這里介紹六種在辦公桌邊就能進(jìn)行的運(yùn)動(dòng)方式,能讓上班族保持健康狀態(tài)。
The simple moves, including a chest stretch and a chair twist, were designed by physiotherapists who warn that 'sitting is the new smoking'.
這些簡(jiǎn)單的動(dòng)作,像擴(kuò)胸伸展和座椅旋轉(zhuǎn)等,是由一些理療師設(shè)計(jì)的,題目認(rèn)為“久坐相當(dāng)于吸煙。”
They have been released by the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy (CSP) after a survey released last week revealed four out of 10 office employees walk for less than 30 minutes a day.
這些動(dòng)作由英國(guó)皇家理療師協(xié)會(huì)發(fā)布,此前有一項(xiàng)調(diào)查顯示,每十個(gè)白領(lǐng)中,有四人每天步行的時(shí)間不到30分鐘。
The poll, from the British Heart Foundation, found a third of people are so tied to their desks they even put off going to the loo.
這項(xiàng)調(diào)查由英國(guó)心臟基金會(huì)實(shí)施,調(diào)查還發(fā)現(xiàn)有三分之一的人過(guò)于留戀辦公桌,甚至上廁所都拖拖拉拉地不愿去。
Now, the CSP is urging people to try to be more active during the work day.
所以,理療協(xié)會(huì)鼓勵(lì)人們?cè)诠ぷ鲿r(shí)間要多活動(dòng)。
A survey, carried out by the organisation, revealed only 19 per cent of us leave our desks to go outside for a break, and only three per cent of us go to the gym.
該機(jī)構(gòu)的一項(xiàng)調(diào)查顯示,只有19%的人會(huì)離開(kāi)辦公桌,走到外面透口氣,而只有3%會(huì)去健身。
This means the vast majority of us are missing out on any kind of physical activity during the day.
這就是說(shuō),我們絕大多數(shù)人在一天中不進(jìn)行任何形式的鍛煉。
Sammy Margo, a spokesperson for the CSP, said: 'Full-time workers spend a significant bulk of their week at work, or travelling to and from it.
理療協(xié)會(huì)的發(fā)言人薩米?馬戈說(shuō):“上班族一星期的絕大多數(shù)時(shí)間花在了工作上,或者在上下班的路上。
'Finding ways to build in time to do at least 30 minutes of moderate intensity physical activity, five times a week, can be a challenge.
“要找時(shí)間每天做至少三十分鐘適度的健身運(yùn)動(dòng),一周鍛煉五次,這很難做到。
'Sitting is the new smoking and this issue needs to be taken seriously.'
”久坐相當(dāng)于吸煙,需要受到重視?!?
She added: 'using free facilities like outdoor gyms, or simply going for a brisk walk at lunchtime, can help people to be more active during the day.
她還說(shuō)道:“利用室外免費(fèi)健身設(shè)施,或者在午餐時(shí)間地散步,都能幫助人們?cè)谝惶飚?dāng)中變得更有活力?!?
'You could also consider getting off the tube a stop early or parking further away from work, walking meetings, standing desks and taking standing breaks.'
“你也可以考慮,提前一站下地鐵或者把車(chē)停到離單位稍遠(yuǎn)的地方,開(kāi)會(huì)時(shí)來(lái)回走動(dòng),站立辦公,以及站著休息。”
Here, she reveals how to try and keep in shape while at your desk....
以下是她介紹的幾個(gè)在辦公桌旁鍛煉的方法。
The chest stretch: Sit forward, point your thumbs to the ceiling and stretch the chest, squeezing the shoulder blades together for 20 seconds

坐立拉伸:坐椅子的邊緣,腳跟著地,身體向前傾二十秒,伸展腿部。
The chair twist: Sit forward and rotate the head and upper body to the right. Use your left hand to take the right arm and cross over the body to stretch the spine
坐姿扭動(dòng):面向前坐好,頭部和上身向右轉(zhuǎn)。左手抓住右邊扶手,轉(zhuǎn)動(dòng)身體拉伸脊椎。
