Simple Understandings That Lead To Health And Youthful Energy
粗浅的理解让我们更健康,精力旺盛
As many of you know, I have a three simple goals for my physical body: Health, athleticism, and aesthetics. I talked about these briefly in the nutrition principles article. Today I want to expand on the health issue a bit and lay out some basic ideas for people to contemplate.
正如大部分人所知,我对身体的要求有三个:健康,崇尚运动和美学。我已经在营养相关文章简单地探讨过了。今天我想针对健康问题再扩展开来讲,列举一些让人们深思的基本观点。
First of all, I want to define health as more than just a lack of disease. Health is much more than that. Health means you have a lack of disease plus you have physical vitality and energy. Health is feeling good physically. Health is thinking clearly. Health is having an inner sense of vibrance and vitality. The way that I look at it, health is having youthful energy. Many of us have forgotten what it’s like to have the youthful energy we once enjoyed. Remember what it felt like as a kid? You wanted to be active? You wanted to play? You couldn’t wait for recess? You couldn’t wait to rid your bike? That’s the youthful energy I’m talking about. Many of us had that slowly fade away, and it’s time to command it, and take it back. Lethargy, laziness, and inactivity is not okay. It doesn’t have to be this way, and with a few simple lifestyle improvements and easy decisions, that youthful energy can be yours once more.
首先,我要说明的是健康远远不只是没有疾病。健康远远超过了它。健康就是你没有得病而且身体充满能量和活力。健康是身体感觉很棒,思维清晰。健康还指对振动和活力拥有内里的感知觉。依我看来,健康应该是年轻而有活力的。许多人都忘记了我们曾经享受过的年轻活力是什么样子的了,仍记得你是孩儿时候的样子吗?你总是非常活跃?你总是想要到处玩耍?你总是期待假期?你总是迫不及待的要去骑自行车?这就是我所谓的精力旺盛。曾经精力旺盛的我们都慢慢的消失了,是时候再去找回它了。死气沉沉,慵懒和沉默已经不行了。不一定要继续这样子,只要改进生活方式和做一个小小的决定,你的年轻力量又会再次属于你了。
The following are simple habits and distinctions for healthy living. Most of them are very simple and would seem like common sense. Yet, very few people are actually incorporating these things into their daily lives. These are profound truths on how you can regain that youthful energy, have a healthy, fit, and lean body. And ultimately increase the quality of your life.
下面是健康生活的一些简单习惯和区别。它们当中很多都非常简单,就是生活中的常识,但是,很少人能够把这些事情融入到他们的日常生活中。这些是具有深远意义的事实,这些事实能够让你重新拾回年轻活力,拥有一个健康,恰当且强壮的身体。它最大化的提高了你的生活质量。
“Once you start moving better, you start to eat better. Once you start eating better, you start to think better. Now that you’re thinking better, you start the process of becoming conscious. Now we are ready to talk about what is truly going on.”
“一旦你开始运动,你就会吃得更多。只要你的饮食开始变好,你的想法就会更活跃。由于你的想法越来越活跃,你就会开始变得更加理性。现在让我们来探讨一下到底发生了什么事。”
Eating for Health
饮食健康
—If it did not exist 100…1000….10000 years ago, you probably shouldn’t be making a habit of eating it. Human beings aren’t that smart. We will not be able to outsmart nature and make better foods than it for quite awhile.
如果饮食在100,1000......10000年前还不存在的话,你可能就不会形成吃的习惯。人类没有那么聪明,我们就不可能比自然人还聪明并在相对时间里做出更好的食物。
—If it has a package and wrapper, it’s probably not ideal. Yes foods were meant to rot. If they don’t, consider them generally unfit to eat.
如果你只有一个袋子或包裹,那就不是最理想的。是的,食物代表罪恶,腐败。如果他们不这么认为,只是觉得这些食物不适合食用而已。
—If the person giving you advise doesn’t look the way you would like to look, take their health advice with a grain of salt. Don’t fall into the authority trap. No one is your authority. Study this stuff for yourself.
如果有人建议你不要用你的方式看待你自己,不要轻信了他们。不要掉入了常规的陷阱去。没有人是你的权威,通过自学来熟知这些。
—If the food came from nature, it’s probably good. Keep it simple.
如果食物是天然的,那它可能就是健康的,尽量从简。
—If the food is man-made, it’s probably not good. Again, keep it simple.
如果食物是人工制作的,那它有可能不是健康的,一样的,尽量从简。
—If you have the mentality of “I need to go on a diet,” stop it. Diets don’t work, only lifestyle changes do. Think to yourself instead “I need to raise my standards for life, and create new lifestyle habits.”
如果你持有这种心态“我要节食”,停下来,节食是没有作用的,只有生活方式的改变才能起作用。可以改变想法如“我需要提高我的生活质量,创造新的生活习惯。”
—It’s a simple rule…but only buy healthy real foods you should be eating at the grocery store. That way if you are ever feeling “weak” you won’t have anything self destructive around the house within easy arm’s reach. Set yourself up to win. This is the difference between people who succeed and those who fail.
这是简单的道理......但前提是你要购买了健康真实的食物,在食物杂货店里享用。
Exercising for Health
运动健康
—Stop focusing on “how many calories did I burn” with exercise. Focus on “what hormonal response am I giving my body for the next 24-48 hours?”
停止一直关注通过锻炼“我燃烧了多少卡路里”,而是关注“在接下来的24到28个小时里,我身体里的激素反应是什么?”
—Intensity and consistency is the key to getting your body to change. When you remain consistent, you won’t believe what will happen.
有一定强度和坚持锻炼是让你身体状况发生改变的关键。当你坚持下去的时候,你不会相信什么会发生。
—Exercising is “your time.” We all need this. Love it. Enjoy it.
锻炼是“你的时间”。我们所有人都需要,珍惜并且享受这段时间。
—Think of creative ways to stay active outdoors. Hiking, biking, parks, whatever. You don’t have to go to the gym to get activity. It holds no monopoly on exercise and activity.
考虑一些创造性的途径让自己在室外保持活跃,登山,骑自行车,逛公园,无论什么,你不一定要到健身房进行锻炼,锻炼和活动没有规定的场所。
—Regain your hobbies that kept you physically active as a kid. Revisit them and make them a priority in your life again. Physical activity creates health. When you make doing things you love a priority, you can’t help but stay active.
重新拾回当你还是孩提时候,保持身体充满活力的好习惯吧。重新一一拜访它们并在你的生命中再次优先这些好习惯。身体保持活动能够保持健康。当你做事情的时候总是喜欢优先考虑一些事情,你仍不住的保持活力。
“We don’t stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.”
我们没有停止玩耍因为我们在成长;我们成熟起来了是因为我们停止了玩耍。
Living for Health
生活健康
—If you can tell me about what happened last night on “Survivor”, then you have no excuses of why you have no time to go exercise. Stop kidding yourself. Stop lying to yourself. Stop rationalizing. Get real.
如果你可以告诉我在昨天晚上的“幸存者”中发生了的情节,就没有理由说明你没有时间运动。不要再欺骗自己了,停止常规习惯性的生活。回到真实的生活中吧。
—Revisit the ways of the past. Mow your lawn with a push mower. Walk more often.
重新温习你故有的方式。用你的推草机修理草坪,步行运动起来吧。
—While science is looking for a “cure”, the rest of us should be living with “prevention” (and not expecting for a magic pill to bail us out, it’s our responsibility to stay in good health…not your doctors).
当科学在寻找“治愈方法”的时候,我们应该在生活中“预防”(不要期待有灵丹妙药能拯救我们,保持健康是我们自己的责任,而不是医生们的责任)
Avoid the ‘all or nothing’ mindset. Not exercising for a day does not give you the right to just throw your healthy eating lifestyle out the window too.
避免“孤注一掷”的习惯。一天不运动也不代表就能将你的健康饮食生活方式通通的忘光。

”行动是我们和任何事物发生联结的所有“--李小龙
Awareness for Health
健康意识
—Getting fit/lean isn’t rocket science. The biggest reason why people don’t get results is because they give up. Stop thinking you need something complicated, the biggest thing you need is just simple consistency.
达到健康/强壮不是一朝一夕的事情。人们没有得到良好效果的最大原因是因为他们放弃了。不要认为你需要更复杂全面的东西,你需要的只是简单的坚持。
—The greatest mental flaw for modern society is not realizing people are overweight and sick because of their deviation from eating and living in a more natural way (as our bodies were designed for).
现代社会人们最大的思维死角就是没有意识到因为人类对饮食的偏差或是生活方式的偏差而变得超重或过瘦
—Challenge yourself to live life fuller…get out of comfort routines….turn off the TV for a month….see what happens.
挑战自己,让生活变得更加充实...跳出舒适的常规习惯中...关掉一个月的电视...看看什么事情会发生。
—Although it’s okay to have short term visions, commit yourself to CNEI; constant never ending improvement. Make optimal health a lifelong hobby. A quest for glory. Have fun with it and get around people who share the vision.
虽然我们可以有短期的目标,投身到CNEI;恒心永远都不会以进步结尾。形成良好的终生的健康生活习惯。拥有更美好的探索。享受它并和周边的人分享它
—Perfection is an illusion. The goal isn’t perfection, it is excellence. Strive to live excellent today. Don’t let your mind take over and start contemplating tomorrow, 1 week from now, 1 year from now. Your happiness is now.
完美不是一种幻想。目标永远都不会完美,而是更优秀。坚持更优秀的活着。不要让你的思维掌控了,明天起开始冥想。从现在开始的一周后,一年以后。你的幸福就是现在。
—Start looking at corporate food manufactures for what they are, a business that wants profit. They do not have your best interest in mind. Don’t fall for the tricks. Don’t fall for the ads.
现在开始,在法定的食物生产商那问清楚他们生产的究竟是什么,商业总是需要盈利,他们不会考虑到你的最大化利益。不要掉入陷阱,不要轻信广告。
“The great arises out of small things that are honored and cared for. Everybody’s life really consists of small things. Greatness is a mental abstraction and a favorite fantasy of the ego. The paradox is that the foundation for greatness is the honoring of small things of the present moment instead of pursuing the idea of greatness.” -Eckhart Tolle
”事无巨细,任何大事都是由一系列的小事组成的。每个人的生活都是由一堆小事组成的。伟大是一种抽象思维,是一种良好的自我感觉。悖论则是伟大的根基,伟大有赖于一系列当前的小事而不单单是伟大的概念。“--埃克哈特-托利。
