為何要健身?Why a nice physique?
人人都應該健身,打造完美體格。追求強健體格的目的,並不全是為了擁有發達的肌肉和美觀的身形,但若擁有這些,生活一切都更美好,就像在蛋糕頂端,放上一顆完美的櫻桃。
就某方面來說,擁有好看的體型,就像呼了大麻,飄飄欲仙(除非你本來就是個全時「嗨咖」),生活中所做的一切都更順手,更有美感。尤其是那些瑣碎的日常小事,像:清潔唱機;凝視老祖母的手;邊除草邊吹口哨,儘管五音不全,因為雜音太大聽不到;向朋友示範如何「捲一根」;心不在焉地遛狗、撿狗屎;邊工作邊用指甲在桌上留下刮痕;在線上跟素未謀面的人用視訊(或語音)聊天,睡覺,作夢…當然也少不了-抽雪茄。
The reason why people should lift and build a nice physique is not that an aesthetic physique and muscles are end of all ends, but it is the perfect cherry to put on top of anything and everything you do in life...
In a way, having a nice physique is kind of like being high on cannabis (except you are high all the time) - it makes everything you do in life just a little bit (or a lot) better and more aesthetic - especially the small and mundane things like cleaning your record player, staring at your grandmother's hands, mowing the lawn while whistling out of tune because you can't hear anything, showing your friends how to roll a joint, walking your dog mindlessly and picking up its dog shit, making scratch marks with your fingernails on your desk during work, sleeping and dreaming and talking online with or without the webcam with somebody you've never met in real life...and of course, smoking a cigar.
