  摘要:不是所有人都会去健身房,但就算做家务也能健身。营养师建议,每天45分钟的体力活动能延长你5年的寿命。

  Not everyone can get to the gym — but it's really possible to get fit just by doing household chores.

  Nutritionists say that 45 minutes of physical activity each day will increase your life expectancy up to five years.

  Cleaning your house with all the bending, or stretching and hovering to clean those cabinets hard to reach can be healthy activity.

  Not only would you find doing household chores a sweet escape, getting them done is an accomplishment.

  不是所有人都会去健身房,但就算做家务也能健身。

  营养师建议,每天45分钟的体力活动能延长你5年的寿命。

  当你弯腰清理地板的时候,当你抬起手来回擦拭高处的橱柜时,这都是健康的身体运动。

  你不仅会发现做家务是一件摆脱烦恼的惬意事,而且做完家务还有一种成就感。

  【讲解】
