6 Ways Your Life Changes With Just One Week of Exercise

仅仅需要一周时间你生活会发生六个变化

The human body has an incredible capacity to experience something new and immediately begin adapting to it on day one. This is particularly impressive when it comes to working out. In just one week of exercise—even if it's the first time in a verrry long time—each body will experience change. That's not to say it will be easy or that all intended results will be seen immediately, but here are six you'll definitely start to notice in the first week.

人体有着令人难以置信的体验并适应新事物的能力。尤其在运动的时候，这个能力更让人印象深刻。在仅仅一周的运动中，即使是长久以来的第一次运动，任何人都会感到改变。但这并不意味着运动很简单，也并不是说很快就可以达到你想象中的效果，不过在开始运动的第一周，你一定会注意到以下这六点。

1. You will be sore.

1、你会感觉到酸痛。

But that's a good thing! Working out means ultra tiny damage is being done to the muscles, which causes the pain and inflammation associated with being sore. The muscle then repairs, rebuilds and gets tougher than before. The soreness should only last a day or two, and you can relish¹ in knowing that you're witnessing in real time your body getting stronger!

但这是一件好事！运动意味着肌肉受到非常微小的伤害，也会引起酸痛伴随的疼痛和炎症。稍后肌肉会恢复、重建，从而变得比之前更结实。这种酸痛往往只会持续一到两天的时间，而且你会感到很欣慰的是，你正在见证身体变健壮的这一时刻。

2. You will find clarity.

2、你的思路会变清晰。

A solid workout increases blood flow and the amount of oxygen getting to the brain. This means your brain is actually able to perform better, making you more alert, focused and able to think at peak performance. Getting in a quick cardio session before a night of writing an important work pitch, preparing for an interview or researching for a project will help to get your brain in the right place.

充分的运动会加快血液的流动以及大脑供氧量。这就意味着你的大脑可以更好地运转，并且使你更加机智、专注，并且能在更佳状态下思考。在编排重要的工作以及准备一场面试或者是在研究一项课题之前，一次快速的有氧运动能够帮助你的大脑恰如其分地发挥它的功能。

3. Your skin will glow.

3、你的皮肤会展现迷人风采。

The increased blood flow from exercise helps the body get rid of waste products like free radicals², resulting in a healthy post-workout glow. Sweating will also help to clear out the pores—just remember to keep some face wipes on deck!

运动促使血液流动，这能够让身体摆脱类似自由基的垃圾产物，也会让人散发一种运动后的健康光芒。汗液也会帮助清除毛孔，但是要记得准备毛巾在身边哦。

4. Life will be easier.

4、生活变得轻松了。

Working out teaches the body to utilize³ oxygen more efficiently⁴. This lowers the heart rate, makes the heart physically⁵ stronger and can make semi-strenuous tasks seem much easier over time. Not only is this good news for you when taking your second or third go at a TRX class, but now that fifth floor walk-up is no problem.

运动能够教会人体更有效地利用氧气，降低心率、使心脏更健康，慢慢地，你会发现做那些半体力劳动也会变得不那么费力了。这对于于你第二次或者第三次尝试“全身阻力训练”来说无疑是个好消息，而且一口气爬五层楼也不再是什么事儿了。

5. You will make healthier choices.

5、你会做出更健康的选择。

You may begin to notice a craving⁶ for healthier foods, or at least decreased interest in not-so-healthy options. This is one of the top mental perks⁷ of working out! Working out is an expression of self-care, and this will seep⁸ into other parts of your life. If you're respecting yourself by exercising and taking care of your body, the decision to nourish your body through healthy food choices tends to follow suit.

你可能会开始注意吃更健康的食物，或者至少不会对非健康食品那么感兴趣了。这是运动带给人精神上最大的启发。运动是自我关注的一种表达方式，而且会不断渗透到你生活中的其他方面。如果你通过运动和照顾身体的方式去尊重自己，那么接下来你往往会决定选择健康食物来滋养你的身体。

6. You will have sweet dreams.

6、你会很快进入甜美的梦乡。

If you’ve ever had trouble sleeping, this may be the first area of your life to be positively⁹ impacted by starting a fitness routine. Provided you don’t work out too late at night, you will experience more restful sleep because the body will demand it for recovery. There are few stronger feelings of satisfaction than that flop¹⁰ into bed at night than after completing a challenging new workout!

如果你曾经有睡眠问题，那么将健身纳入你的日常生活将会是个好的开始。只要你不是在很晚的时候运动，那么你就会拥有很舒服的睡眠，因为人体需要通过睡眠来恢复体能。在一个挑战性的运动结束后，有什么能比一头倒在床上更有满足感呢？
