A month from your climb: Feel comfortable hiking on days on end with at least 60 lbs. on the outings.
Strength training
What to do: Train with gym machines to build overall strength, particularly in the core, upper back, shoulders and legs.

4 . Created after Beijing successfully became an Olympic candidate (候选人), the Beijing 2022 Education Program is part of the host's wider efforts to encourage its people to participate in winter sports. The program has already gone beyond its original target of engaging 300 million people in snow and ice activities. And by involving schools, children and young people, the program ensures that its Olympic legacy (遗产) will continue to reach the young audience long after the Games.
In a push to engage the younger generation in ice and snow sports, schools and educational authorities have developed a curriculum (课程) that includes winter sports knowledge and history, practical classes for beginners, and an introduction to becoming a winter sports coach. Winter sports clubs have also been set up in schools all around the country, allowing children to develop ice and snow sports skills in the warmer south as well as the cold north.
Sports education is proved to have a positive effect on physical and mental health. It also helps to reduce stress, and build team and organizational skills. When COVID-19 made outdoor participation harder, organizers made sure that children and teenagers could follow a digital Olympic curriculum. Some classes were conducted through websites and broadcasters, with the online materials viewed more than 140 million times. Videos, courses and games were all part of digital efforts to bring the Olympic Games and winter sports closer to the young. Short videos have gone popular, attracting more than 70 million viewers online.
Thanks to sports education, more and more young people have expressed interest in becoming professional athletes. To keep them practising ahead of the next Olympic Winter Games, Mini Winter Olympics will be organized every year. The last ones attracted more than 1, 700 children and seemed to keep growing.

10 . Yoga is an ancient physical and spiritual practice from India. The word “yoga” comes from Sanskrit (梵文) and means “to join” or “to unite”, symbolizing the union of body and mind. Today it is practised in various forms around the world and continues to grow in popularity. Recognizing its universal appeal, the United Nations declared June 2l as the International Day of Yoga in 2014 to raise awareness worldwide of the benefits of practising yoga.
Yoga is an invaluable gift from an ancient tradition. It’s not just about exercise but a way to discover the sense of combining yourself with nature and the world. There is no written record of who invented yoga. Yoga practitioners (从业者) passed down the practising ways to their students. The earliest written record of yoga is generally believed to have been written by Patanjali, an Indian master who lived somewhere between 2,000 and 2,500 years ago.
Various yoga types give you many choices. Hatha yoga is the most widely practised type and is perfect for beginners. It is gentle with slow and smooth movements. Kundalini yoga includes a singing-part besides body and mental control. Bikram yoga is practised in a heated room. It is to relax muscles and to sweat to clean the body and remove disease and pain. Ashtanga yoga is taught as a difficult workout where you move quickly from one movement to another to build strength and patience.
In recent years, the World Health Organization has asked countries to help their citizens reduce physical inactivity, which is among the top ten leading causes of death worldwide, and a key risk factor for non-communicable diseases, such as cancer and diabetes (糖尿病). Yoga is a proper exercise. It is known for its ability to ease stress and anxiety. It may also help reduce several risk factors for heart diseases and improve a better sleep.
