Daryl: Anita! I didn’t know you ①work out here.
Anita: Oh, hi Daryl. Yeah, I just got my membership last week.
Daryl: How do you like it so far?
Anita: It’s pretty good. It’s a lot bigger than my old gym, and they’ve got a lot more equipment here.
Daryl: Did you ②check out the sauna yet? I ③make it a point to spend at least 10 minutes in there after every session.
Anita: It’s nice but I mostly came just to ④get in shape. What kind of a workout do you do?
Daryl: It depends on what muscle groups I’m trying to tone up I guess.
Anita: For example?
Daryl: Well I use the free weights a lot, dumbbells and the bench press, when I want to build up my
1)pects or 2)biceps and 3)triceps.
Anita: Do you ever use the 4)treadmill?
Daryl: Sometimes I’ll use the treadmill or an exercise bike when I want to do some 5)cardio or just to lose some of this 6)flab.
Anita: Flab? I don’t know, Daryl, you look pretty 7)ripped.
Daryl: Thanks.
Anita: Do you work out independently or do you have a personal trainer?
Daryl: Independently. If you’re a beginner it can be useful to have a trainer, or if you’re determined to get fit in a limited amount of time, but otherwise I find them a bit expensive and I do just fine on my own.
Anita: Maybe we could work out together sometime then? I’m something of a beginner myself.
Daryl: Sure! We could help each other out. In fact, come over here and spot me would you?
Anita: My pleasure. How much can you bench anyways? This looks pretty heavy.
Daryl: Ah, I’ll be fine, ⑤an old hand like me? Oof! Help! Maybe you’re right. How about we just hit the pool instead?
Daryl：Anita！我不知道原来你在这里健身。
Anita：噢，Daryl，你好。是啊，我上周才刚成为会员的。
Daryl：这里的感觉怎样？
Anita：很不错。这里比我原来去的那家大很多，而且还有更多的设备。
Daryl：你试过这里的桑拿了吗？我每次健身完都会特意在那里待上至少十分钟。
Anita：那很好啊，不过我每次来都主要是为了锻炼身体。你一般都练哪些项目？
Daryl：我想那要看我想加强哪一组肌肉。
Anita：例如？
Daryl：嗯，当我想加强胸肌，或二头肌和三头肌，我比较多使用自由举重，哑铃和推举。
Anita：你用过踏步机吗？
Daryl：有时当我想做一下有氧运动或是想收紧松驰的肌肉的时候，我会用踏步机或健身脚踏车。
Anita：松弛？我不太明白，Daryl，你看起来肌肉很紧啊。
Daryl：谢谢。
Anita：你是自己练习，还是找私人教练陪练的？
Daryl：自己练习。如果你是新手，或者你真的想在有限的时间里练出效果的话，有个私人教练会很有用。不过我发现他们有些贵，所以我就只是自己练习。
Anita：那么有时候我们可以一起练习了？我还只是个新手呢。
Daryl：当然！我们可以互相帮忙。这样吧，过来这边帮我加点重量，好吗？
Anita：乐意之至！对了，你能推举多重？这个看起来很重哦。
Daryl：呃，没事的，像我这样的老手怎么会有事呢？噢！快帮我！或许你是对的。不如我们改去游泳吧。
Smart Sentences
①work out 锻炼，健身
这个词组与工作没有关系，它是指锻炼身体、健身（do physical exercises in order to make your body fit and strong），当然是指有一定运动量的，但并没有特指哪一种运动，而且也不分场合，在家里、在室外、在健身房锻炼都可以叫work out。workout是名词，例:
This afternoon we went to the gym for a workout.
②check out 察看，调查
这个动词词组有两个主要用法，在这里是指查看某事或某人的情况，确保情况是好的或者符合要求（find out information and make sure everything is correct or satisfactory），如check sb. out或check sth. out，也可以是check out sth.。另一个用法指旅客在离开旅馆时付账离开（pay the bill and leave），即我们常说的办退房手续。例:
They checked out of the hotel and left for the airport.
③make it a point特别注意，打定主意做某事
注意不要被它的字面意思迷惑，这个词组不是“表明一个观点”的意思，它是指做某事特别留意去做，或者是以一种特别明显的方式去做（you do it in a very deliberate or obvious way），可能是为了表明某种观点，也可能是为了达到某种目的，如本文中的用法。例:
She made it a point to arrive there before he did.
④get in shape处于良好的健康状况
相当于get in good shape （in a good state of health or in a good condition）。在美国口语中，shape一词可用来指健康状况，良好的身体状况，与此相关的词组还有get back into shape等。
⑤an old hand like me像我这样的老手
这是一个与中文对等的说法，这里的old hand也就是中文里的“老手”（someone who is very skilled at something because he has been doing it for a long time）， 在使用上也与中文没有太大的区别。例：
It’s shame for an old hand like me to make a simple mistake like this.
