【健身英语课堂】How does FAT benefit you ?脂肪并没有那么可怕

每天都在听身边很多小伙伴在说恨不得把身上的脂肪用剪刀直接咔嚓掉就好，因为运动太辛苦啊，坚持不下来啊，为什么自己没有酷炫的腹肌，一定是脂肪搞得鬼。

但其实脂肪是我们的好伙伴，你知道吗？



脂肪是生命运转必需品。

Fat is indispensably needed by life running.

脂肪是一种能够储存能量的身体组织，并且为身体里的重要器官起到保护与隔离的作用。尤其是在严寒的冬季，脂肪对于身体的保护作用更加明显。

Fat is a kind of body tissue containing stored fat that serves as a source of energy, it also cushions and insulates vital organs, fatty tissue protected them from the severe cold days.



脂肪有一定的运输作用。这是因为，很多的营养，比如一些维生素，是需要用脂类来运输的。

Fat has played a certain role in transporting lots of important elements in human body like some vitamins.



脂肪除了保护内脏器官，在骨骼、关节等地方脂肪也对跑步等运动带来的冲击有保护和支持作用。

Apart from protecting internal organs, fat also works sufficiently in protecting bones, joints and other places from those possible damages in running or doing other sports.

鸡蛋
