3 . Fitness Magazine recently ran an article titled “Five Reasons to Thank Your Workout Partner.” One reason was: “You’ll actually show up if you know someone is waiting for you at the gym,” while another read: “You’ll work harder if you train with someone else.” With a workout partner, you will increase your training effort as there is a subtle competition.

So, how do you find a workout partner?

First of all, decide what you want from that person. Do you want to be a better athlete in your favorite sport? Or do you just want to be physically fit, able to move with strength and flexibility? Think about the exercises you would like to do with your workout partner.

You might think about posting what you are looking for on social media, but it probably won’t result in a useful response. A workout partner usually needs to live close by. If you plan on working out in a gym, that person must belong to the same gym.

My partner posted her request on the notice board of a local park. Her notice included what kind of training she wanted to do, how many days a week and how many hours she wanted to spend on each session, and her age. It also listed her favorite sports and activities, and provided her phone number. Any notice for training partner should include such information.

You and your partner will probably have different skills. Just accept your differences and learn to work with each other. Over time, both of you will benefit — your partner will be able to lift more weights and you will become more physically fit. The core of your relationship is that you will always be there to help each other.

All the students in our school took a part in the Sunshine Sports Programme in the morning of September 29, 2020, from 10: 00 to 11: 00. The Ministry of Education demands that students exercised for an hour every day so as to have a strong body and enjoying the whole life. In my opinion, it is a good idea for we senior high school students to take exercise every day. Now, everyone was eager for health, that is considered as a key factor for success. Because we spend an hour a day on exercise, it is well worth it. Not only taking exercise build up our bodies, but it also helps us concentrate on our study. Therefore, we can work more efficiently in the process of study and acquire much knowledge.

9 . Improving as a runner is about more than just running all of the time. You need to pay a little attention to details and make a smart training plan.     1    , no matter what your sport, race, or running habits.

Alternate easy and hard runs to build strength rapidly. It is common for runners to push themselves about the same amount each time and gradually increasing difficulty.     2    . It is during these difficult runs, when you really push yourself, that your body snakes the most significant gains. Don’t feel like an easy day is “cheating”. Rather, it is helping rebuild and relax the muscles needed for your big runs.

    3    . You want to keep your chin (下巴) up and your shoulders back, with loose, relaxed arm and hand muscles. Your elbows are bent at 90 degrees but swing freely. If anything, the only muscles you want to focus on keeping strong and tight are the ones in your core (核心). That’s because this will naturally help you efficiently channel energy.

    4    . A higher body temperature ensures your muscles are loose and flexible, and your body is pumping blood effectively throughout. For everything other than easy runs, use the first five to ten minutes to build a light sweat and get your body ready for exercise. Even five minutes of walking is a good way to get started. Slowly pick up speed for short 10 second runs, and then return to normal warm-up pace.     5    .

A．This helps prepare your muscles for speed

B．Children are often advised to start running at an early age

C．Keep a relaxed but strong upper body to conserve energy efficiently

D．There are two individual sports available, running or tennis

E．Use your light run to work up a light sweat.

F．In that case, you can make large improvements as a runner in a relatively short time

G．Outstanding runners, however, alternate an easy run with a very challenging one

10 . Race walking shares many fitness benefits with running, research shows, while most likely contributing to fewer injuries. It does, however, have its own problem.

Race walkers are conditioned athletes. The longest track and field event at the Summer Olympics is the 50-kilometre race walk, which is about five miles longer than the marathon. But the sport’s rules require that a race walker’s knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact with the ground at all times. It’s this strange form that makes race walking such an attractive activity, however, says Jaclyn Norberg, an assistant professor of exercise science at Salem State University.

Like running, race walking is physically demanding, she says. According to most calculations, race walkers moving at a pace of six miles per hour would burn about 800 calories (卡路里) per hour, which is approximately twice as many as they would burn walking, although fewer than running, which would probably burn about 1,000 or more calories per hour.

However, race walking does not pound the body as much as running does, Dr Norberg says. According to her research, runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per step, while race walkers, who do not leave the ground, create only about 1.4 times their body weight with each step.

As a result, she says, some of the injuries associated with running, such as runner’s knee, are uncommon among race walkers. But the sport’s strange form does place considerable stress on the ankles and hips, so people with a history of such injuries might want to be cautious in adopting the sport. In fact, anyone wishing to try race walking should probably first consult a coach or experienced racer to learn proper technique, she says. It takes some practice.
