If you get injured in a sport, what should you do? The best way
Your first question after a sport injury will
4 . You can run pretty much anywhere, with pretty much no equipment. So it must be easy to start-just put one foot in front of the other, right?
Not quite.
Starting a new training program, like most things, is stepping into unfamiliar area.
If you like a challenge, your goal might be running the local 5K, or something more ambitious, like finishing a Tough Mudder obstacle run or qualifying for the Boston Marathon. A typical beginner who trains properly—without overdoing it — can safely finish a 5K after about three months.
Whatever you decide to aim for, committing to it will help your progress greatly.
Then don't get ahead of yourself.
A.Figure out why you're running. |
B.The new training program will pay off. |
C.And it is possible for a marathon after a year. |
D.Otherwise you tend to make no further progress. |
E.That is a remarkable achievement for a run beginner. |
F.You should resist the urge to run too hard, too much, or too often. |
G.You're eager but unsure, excited but potentially easy to make errors. |
5 . Nordic Walking
Started in Finland in the early 20th century, Nordic walking used to be a summer training exercise for cross-country skiers.
Nordic walking is great for people who are looking for a smart physical activity with maximum health benefits, combined with fun and convenience. Nordic walking takes fitness walking to a new level by adding poles to produce an incredible upper body workout.
When you walk normally and carry poles with you, it is called the “2-wheel drive”. As soon as you hold the poles properly and start using your upper body, you're now in the "4-wheel drive". Every step should begin with the heel touching the ground.
A.Just remember to choose lightweight walking shoes. |
B.Your hands should always be in a “hold-n-go” state with the poles. |
C.As with any sport, it is always important to have the right equipment. |
D.There are also many Nordic walking clubs that offer regular weekly walks. |
E.This strengthens your arms, chest, back and makes your body more flexible. |
F.The real breakthrough of Nordic walking as a practiced exercise came in 1997. |
G.It is now progressing well into other countries such as Japan, Australia, the UK and the USA. |
One of them is tennis champion Andre Agassi, who retired in 2006. Agassi was a terrific player who won 60 titles, including eight major championships(冠军称号). But his greatest accomplishment(成就)might have been how much he changed during his career.
When he was young, Agassi was a show off who seemed to care only about himself. He didn't train very hard, but he won matches because of his tremendous(极大的)talent.Eventually, though, injuries and his bad attitude caught up with him. He fell from No.1 in the world ranking to No.141.
So Agassi changed. He trained harder and became a world-class player again. More importantly, he changed as a person. He was nicer to fans and opponents(对手). He stopped thinking just about himself and started thinking about others. Through his Andre Agassi Charitable Foundation, he raised more than $60 million to help disadvantaged kids around his hometown of Las Vegas, Nevada. He even started a school, the Andre Agassi College Preparatory Academy, for at-risk kids.
At the start of a new year, lots of people promise themselves they will change. They might vow to get in good physical shape, do better in school or be nicer to others. Changes such as those can be difficult. But they do happen. Just remember Andre Agassi: It wasn't easy, but he changed, and changed for the better.

Yoga(瑜伽) is an ancient practice that helps create a sense of union in body, mind, and spirit. It brings us balance. I was seriously out of balance when I started practicing yoga in 1999. I had plantar fascitis in both feet, and my doctor had warned me against all the things I loved to do: walking, hiking, and playing tennis. I was desperate for exercise. Yoga became my salvation and even enhanced my other fitness activities. I practice yoga at least twice a week, but I consider yoga to be part of my daily life because after a while you no longer just practice yoga—you love it.
Yoga becomes part of your physical life. Your body grows stronger, more toned, and more flexible as you move from one pose to the other. I spent a week in Mexico at a yoga retreat, and it was the first vacation on which I lost weight. “Rather than building muscle, yoga builds muscle tone,” says Shakta Kaur Khalsa, author of the K.I.S.S. Guide to Yoga. “Because yoga helps maintain a balanced metabolism (新陈代谢), it also helps to regulate weight. Additionally, yoga stretches muscles lengthwise, causing fat to be removed around the cells.” I do yoga poses throughout the day. After hours at my computer, I stretch my stiff shoulders and arms. When I need a boost of energy, I do energizing poses. When I am feeling exhausted at the end of the day, I do restorative poses.
Yoga becomes part of your mental life. Yoga teaches you to focus on breathing while you hold the poses. This attention to breath is calming; it dissolves stress and anxiety. I use yogic breathing on the tennis courts, in the dentist’s chair, and in traffic jams. You should always leave a yoga practice feeling energized, not tired. If you feel tired after yoga, it means you spent the time “fighting” yourself, trying to force yourself into poses. In yoga, you “surrender” to the pose by letting go of the tension.
Yoga becomes part of your spiritual life. Yoga is practiced by people from all religions; it is not restricted to any religious group. Yoga teaches “right” living in how we deal with ourselves and others. As I work on a difficult pose, I learn patience, forgiveness, and the value of gentleness. Yoga advocates proper eating, but you don’t have to be a vegetarian to practice yoga.
