只有女性才學瑜伽?外媒公佈:外國男性的健身方式多到你不敢相信

運動、健身一直都是人類生活的重點,早些年的中國就有馬術、射箭、蹴鞠、太極、武功等運動。如今的運動健身方式更是多不勝數,最為流行的就是國外傳入的:瑜伽、普拉提等。看到這裡,相信大家都會好奇,歪果仁的健身運動是不是隻有瑜伽、普拉提呢?

其實,並不是的,歪果仁的健身方式也是各種繽紛多彩啊!瑜伽、普拉提只是其中的兩項健身運動。那麼,你真的知道自己更適合哪項運動嗎?阿卡索小編這就帶大家來盤點盤點,那些在國外大火的健身運動。

流瑜伽 Vinyasa

瑜伽的大名,相信大家都不會覺得陌生。瑜伽誕生於古印度,如今健身超模們的健身方式也是少不了瑜伽這項運動。如今的健身房的第一課程就是瑜伽課,男女老少都能鍛鍊。瑜伽的大名的你是聽過了,那麼流瑜伽你知道嗎?流瑜伽也是從美國開始發揚的,流瑜伽的也稱為Vinyasa,這也是西方瑜伽裡最流行的廣泛術語。流瑜伽的課上,一切都是以呼吸為引導,每個姿勢都像呼吸一樣,流入下一個姿勢。如今,歪果仁最流行練習的也是流瑜伽。

"Vinyasa is the broadest term for flow yoga which is the most popular in the western world," Magee told Business Insider. The word Vinyasa applies to the principle of synchronising movement with breath. In a Vinyasa class everything is guided by your breath, including how long you hold a pose for, he said, and each posture flows into the next.

英語馬上學:

Broadest [brɔ:dɪst] adj. 寬廣的。

Synchronizing ['sɪŋkrənaɪzɪŋ] adj. v. 同步的、同步、整步。

阿斯湯加 Ashtanga

聽到這個名字,相信不少人都會覺得陌生。阿斯湯加?這是什麼新出的運動嗎?其實,阿斯湯加是一種瑜伽運動,這也是國際上最為古老和流行的一種哈他瑜伽的練習風格。它的英文名是Ashtanga,阿斯湯加也是流瑜伽的一種變體。它的鍛鍊方式會比較側重於力量和耐力,也被稱為是最古老嚴格的瑜伽。

Ashtanga yoga is a variation of Vinyasa — it’s just with a set sequence of movements. "If you take an Ashtanga primary series class, no matter where in the world you are or who is leading the class, they’ll teach you the same sequence — so you know which pose is coming next," Magee explained.

英語馬上學:

Variation [veərɪ'eɪʃ(ə)n] n. 變化、變異、變種。

火箭流瑜伽 Rocket

相信不少人都會覺得瑜伽就是一種慢動作的、高難度的運動。其實,瑜伽也有快動作的,那就是火箭流瑜伽。正如它名字所示,火箭流瑜伽是一種快速式瑜伽,這也是阿斯湯加瑜伽的衍生品。在西方,火箭流瑜伽也是引發了不少歪果仁的興趣,因為它非常好玩。不過,火箭流瑜伽的高難度體式也是出了名的高難度,它能有效的喚醒神經系統,並快速恢復精神與能量。

Rocket yoga, as the name might suggest, is a fast-style yoga. "It's a derivative of Ashtanga. It comes from the traditional Ashtanga series, but was modified for the west by a man called Larry Schultz in San Francisco," Magee explained. While Schultz was on tour teaching yoga to American rock band "The Grateful Dead," one member, Bob Weir, suggested he name his yoga style "Rocket, because it gets you there faster" — and it stuck.

英語馬上學:

Derivative [dɪ'rɪvətɪv] n. adj. 衍生物、派生物、派生的、引出的。

力量瑜伽 Power yoga

提起瑜伽,相信不少男性都會覺得,這是女性專屬的運動。難道男性都不適合瑜伽嗎?其實瑜伽是沒有區分性別的,力量瑜伽也是由Barpt Baptiste男士所推崇的。力量瑜伽又稱為Power yoga,它非常快,也很有衝擊力。在西方國家中,力量瑜伽也是要求最為嚴格的瑜伽之一,它有超強的塑造體形效果,對雕塑手臂、腰部、臀部的線條效果都十分明顯。同時,也能增強心肺循環功能,促進新陳代謝。

外國的健身業內人士Magee也曾透露過,如果只做力量訓練的話,你的身體就會變得緊張而束縛。但是,如果你除了靈活性訓練之外,什麼運動也不做的話,你的身體也會變得懶散和柔弱。交叉訓練會將你的身體帶入一個比較平衡的地方。

There are a number of Power yoga styles, and the one Magee highlighted was made popular by Baron Baptiste. "It's quick, it's punchy," he said. It's sometimes, but not always, practised in a heated room. "The only downside to something like Power yoga is, yes, you're going to get a sweat on and feel aerobically challenged, but for a beginner does it have the queuing and the guidance needed to keep you moving safely in and out of the spaces where you need to go?" Magee said. "In my opinion, probably not. You'd probably need a few beginner classes first, which focus on the yoga fundamentals. "

英語馬上學:

Punchy ['pʌn(t)ʃɪ] adj. 強力的、頭昏眼花的。

Aerobically

adv. 有氧。

看完歪果仁的這些運動模式,也不得不驚歎,原來我們做知道的運動方式還是太少了。瑜伽也是分了很多類型的,交叉的訓練會讓身體變得更好。話說,你覺得哪種運動更適合自己呢?
