24招教你健康悠閒過假期

推薦人: 來源: 閱讀: 1.4W 次

After putting in long work hours all winter and squeezing in those extra bench presses, it’s finally time to take a break! Whether you’re relaxing on the beach or exploring a new city, a time out from the normal routine can be wonderful thing. But it can also make it tough to stay fit—all those meals out and indulging in a few (OK, a lot of) cocktails doesn't exactly help either. All that fun means you might return home feeling less than refreshed.
一整個冬天都貢獻給了工作,還多做了好些仰臥起坐和舉重,現在總算能歇口氣了!無論你是在悠閒的沙灘享受還是去一個陌生的城市探險,只要別和平時一樣就很美妙了。但是要保持身材就比較困難了——總是出去吃大餐,小(豪)酌(飲)雞尾酒,這可不行。所有的樂趣都讓你回家的時候提不起精神。

The good news is feeling healthy during and post-vacay is totally possible. Making just a few smart choices will keep you active and energized and help you get the most out of that vacay—and looking forward to the next one.
好消息是,想要在假期和節後都過得健康是完全可能的。只要做出一些聰明的選擇你就可以充滿活力和精力,整個假期充實得不行——你會期待下一次放假的。

24招教你健康悠閒過假期

Eating and Diet
吃與不吃

•Eat before the airport. Chow down on a big meal before hitting the airport to avoid having to eat at the fast food courts. If you forget and need to eat there, try fruit or a salad.
去機場前吃一頓。去機場前飽餐一頓,省的得吃快餐。要是忘記了,得在機場吃東西,試試水果或色拉。

•Watch out for jetlag. Adjusting to a new time zone might make you hungry at odd hours. Resist the urge to snack at 4 a.m. and wait for normal meal times instead (or choose a healthy snack, like a handful of nuts, to tide you over).
注意時差。還沒適應時差的時候你可能會在很詭異的時候餓。凌晨四點可堅決不能吃零食,等到正常的飯點吧。(實在不行也可以選擇健康的零食,像一把堅果。)

•Drive past the drive-thru. If you’re driving to your getaway, plan where and when you’ll be stopping for meals before hitting the road. It’ll give you more flexibility when choosing a healthier restaurant—or figuring out the best options. And of course, pack your own healthy snacks!
別吃路邊快餐。如果你駕車去目的地,計劃好吃飯的時間地點,別停在路邊吃快餐。選擇健康的飯店或是事先擬定一個範圍,這樣就有更大的選擇空間了。當然,別忘了帶上你自己的健康零食。

•Save space for treats. Visiting France? It’d be a sin not to try out some crepes. And that's just fine. On days you’ll be indulging more than usual, try to keep other meals and snacks on the healthy side.
留點肚子吃當地特色。去法國?要是不嚐嚐法式薄餅可是罪過。那很不錯。這樣你就比平時吃得多了,少吃點別的餐點零食會比較健康。

•Beware of buffets. With so many delicious choices, how to choose anything other than, well, everything? Start by using a smaller plate; it’ll encourage smaller portions. Also aim to fill up on as many fruits and veggies as possible. Just have to try that cheesy pasta? Spread the love and share it with a friend.
小心自助餐。有那麼多好吃的東西,怎麼有選擇地吃,而不是什麼都吃呢?先用個小一點的盤子,這樣你什麼都會少拿一點。儘量多吃水果蔬菜。但是一定得嚐嚐芝士披薩?博愛一點,和朋友分而食之吧。

•Stay regular. No, not that kind of regular. Keeping a fairly consistent diet helps maintain weight better than being erratic. Even when you're on vacation, aim to eat roughly the same amount and kinds of food as you usually do. Your body will thank you.
保持規律。不,不是那種規律。比起不規律的飲食,保持穩定的飲食比較不容易長胖。即使在假期,儘量和平時吃差不多的量、差不多的東西,你的身體會感激你的。

•Visit food markets. They’re a great place to soak up local culture and eat delicious—and cheap—fresh food. Local food is better for the environment; you get to pick what you’re eating; and you'll even squeeze in some movement as you walk around the market. Talk about a win-win-win.
去食品市場。要浸淫到當地的文化中去,並且吃到便宜新鮮的美食,那可是好地方。吃當地的食物對環境好,要吃什麼就挑什麼,你繞着市場走動的時候還可能擠進某個活動裏,這真是個三贏的局面。

•Pack snacks. When you plan to be out all day, bring along your own healthy snacks to stave off hunger. It’ll keep money in your pocket and away from unhealthier options (we’re looking at you, golden arches). Trail mix, granola bars, or even PB&J sandwiches are all healthy, portable options.
帶上零食。如果你打算出去一整天,帶上你自己的健康零食來抵禦飢餓。這樣可以省錢,還可以遠離不健康食物,去金色的拱門(指麥當勞)?別,我們可看着你哦。零嘴組合(有堅果、葡萄乾、M&M’s等)、燕麥棒,甚至果醬花生醬三明治都是健康易攜帶的零食。

•Make your own meals. If you’re staying somewhere with kitchen access, take the time to whip up your own delicious meals as much as often doing your stay. You’re more likely to eat something nutritious at home—and you’ll know exactly what’s in it.[/en
]自己做飯。如果你住的地方有廚房,儘量多自己動手做些可口的餐點。在家吃總比在外頭有營養——而且你知道里面放了些什麼。

•Beware of drinks. A single cocktail can contain loads of sugar (and calories). If a stiff drink is necessary (and sometimes it is!), try some of these healthier drinks instead.

小心飲料。一杯雞尾酒就可能含有相當多的糖(和熱量)。如果你的確需要烈酒,試試健康一點的。

•Take a cooking class. It’ll help relieve stress and you’ll be able to recreate the flavors of your vacation long after it’s over. Bonus points for doing something cultural while on vacay.
上烹飪課。這有助於緩解壓力,這樣假期結束很久之後你都可以重新創造出假期的味道。要是假期能做做些有文化的事就更好了。

Exercise and Fitness
運動和健康

•See the sights. On foot or bike, that is. Skip the bus tours and check out your new surroundings the old-fashioned way to burn calories while taking in the views. Lots of cities even offer running tours to let you explore while getting a workout in.[/en

看看風景。步行或騎車。別乘大巴旅遊了,查查看周邊有什麼好地方,用這種老式的方式來欣賞美景,順便燃燒熱量。許多城市還有跑步環遊,讓你一邊遊覽一邊鍛鍊。•Take the stairs. Skip the elevator and sneak in some extra cardio. Bonus: Lots of sightseeing attractions—churches and towers, for example—have stairs with architectural oddities, letting you kill two birds with one step.

走樓梯。別乘電梯了,做一下有氧運動吧。額外好處:很多名勝景點,像教堂和高塔都可以一邊爬樓梯一邊賞建築,一箭雙鵰。

•Embrace your surroundings. If you’re at the beach, try doing the usual yoga routine on the sand instead of indoors. A change in scenery might be the boost needed to get physical. Take a long walk through a local park when kickin’ it in a new city.
擁抱你身邊的環境。如果你在海邊,試試在沙灘上而不是室內做常規的瑜伽動作。景色的變化可能是強健身體的契機。在陌生的城市到處閒逛時不如到當地的公園散步。

•Be adventurous. Break out of a workout rut and use vacation as an excuse to try a new, fun activity. Whether it’s rock climbing, sailing, or trapeze swinging, challenge yourself to try something different while you’re away.
有冒險精神。逃離每天枯燥的鍛鍊,利用假期嘗試新的、有意思的活動。無論是攀巖、划船還是空中飛人,挑戰自己,趁你在外試試別的東西。

•Try the local specialty. Take advantage of what an area’s known for—or even plan a vacation around it! Unroll a yoga mat in India, climb boulders in Colorado, learn tai chi moves in China, or woo potential suitors with flamenco moves in Spain. It’s a great way to learn about a different culture while getting fit.
嘗試當地特色。別錯過當地著名的活動——你甚至可以計劃在景區周邊度假。在印度鋪開瑜伽墊,在科羅拉多攀登巨石,在中國學太極拳,或是看看有沒有合適的人,說服他一起去西班牙學弗拉門戈。這樣既可以瞭解不同的文化又能減肥

•Make exercise your vacation. A surefire way to guarantee you keep moving while traveling is by planning a getaway around a fitness event or competition. Force yourself to vacation by registering for a race in a different city or try a weekend fitness retreat.
讓鍛鍊成爲假期的主題。要保證你在旅行途中一直在運動,一個萬無一失的辦法就是把目的地設在健身活動或賽事的周邊。逼自己在假期中去不同的城市參加比賽或是週末健身訓練營。

Room and Board
食宿

•Check out amenities first. Make it easy to squeeze in workout time by booking a hotel with a gym or pool. If that cozy bed and breakfast doesn’t have the facilities, find out if discounts are offered at a local gym.
先檢查設施。預定帶運動館或游泳池的酒店,這樣就能做運動了。如果只有舒適的牀和早餐而沒有這些設施,看看當地的運動館有沒有折扣。

•Scope out the neighborhood. Book accommodation near places where you can get your sweat on. If you need to run laps before starting your day, make sure there’s a track nearby. If you can’t unwind until you hear namaste, stay near a yoga studio.
查看周邊。住宿周邊應該有能讓你出汗的地方。如果你得先跑幾圈才能開始新的一天,確保周邊有跑道。如果你不聽見合十禮就不能放鬆,住在瑜伽館邊上。

•Do it anywhere. Bodyweight exercises can be done anywhere and require zero equipment. Bust a move in your hotel room to keep fit.
到哪兒都鍛鍊。控制體重的鍛鍊到哪兒都能做,不需要設備。在賓館裏做點運動來保持身材。

•Stash food. Ask for a room with a mini-fridge and keep it stocked with healthy snacks like fruits, veggies, and nuts to avoid room service.
藏點食物。要一個有小冰箱的房間,藏點健康的零食,像水果、蔬菜和堅果,不要客房送餐服務

Rest and Relaxation
休息和放鬆

•Keep work away. It’s a vacation, remember? Resist the urge to check work e-mails and focus on having fun. It will keep your mind clear and allow you to decompress.
別碰工作。在放假呢,記得麼?摒牢別查工作郵件,專心玩。會讓你頭腦清明,解除壓力。

•Free your mind. Meditating for just a few minutes each day can help relieve anxiety and stress. Bonus points if you can find a beautiful space to do it in.
放空。每天冥想幾分鐘,能減緩焦慮和壓力。如果能找個漂亮的地方做就更好了。

•Get the most out of time off. Doing activities that you enjoy, keeping your cell phone off, and sharing time with friends and family (or alone time!) ensure that you’ll get the most bang for your buck out of a vacation.
充分利用休息時間。做喜歡的事,關上手機,和朋友家人在一起(或者一個人待着),這樣你在假期就能最有效地減壓了。
