Slice of Life 19: Elliptical machine work outs


Listen Later

Given the emphasis on exercise these days, it’s nice to work out on the elliptical machine. There’s less stress on your joints, but you still get a good cardio workout, burn a lot of calories, and you can work both your upper and lower body. Today’s episode touts all the benefits of a good workout in the gym.

Dialogue

A: Por que será que é tão diferente fazer cooper na rua em vez de correr na esteira?
B: Pois é, estranho né?! Eu adoro malhar, mas não gosto muito da esteira.
A: Também não, mas eu adoro fazer exercício no elíptico.
B: O elíptico quê?
A: Sabe, o elíptico, aquele aparelho de cardio que dá menos impacto nas juntas (articulações).
B: Ah, sim, mas ainda assim você tem uma boa malhação?
A: Acho que sim, talvez não seja o mesmo que uma corrida ao ar livre, mas sinto que eu queimo muita caloria.
B: Talvez eu tente usar na próxima vez que eu for à academia.


A: Why does it feel so different to jog on the street as opposed to running on the treadmill?
B: I know, right? Weird isn’t it? I love to work out, but I’m just not into the treadmill.
A: Me either, but I do like working out on the elliptical machine.
B: The elliptical what?
A: You know, the elliptical, the cardio machine that puts less stress on your joints.
B: Ah, right, right, but do you still get a good work out?
A: I think so, maybe not the same as running outside, but I do feel like I burn a lot of energy.
B: Maybe I’ll try it next time I go to the gym.
