It can be really frustrating (使人沮丧的) for an overweight person to go to a gym and workout with a positive attitude. All one has to do is walk by almost any nice gym and notice allthe healthy, sweating, skinny members. Sometimes they stare at those of us who are, well, zaftig.
It is easy to see the judgment behind their eyes. Who wants to put up with that？Many people are self-conscious of their bodies and feel isolated when joining workoutclasses of while exercising, especially if they are larger than most of the others in the group.
Now the fitness industry is finally paying attention. Popular gyms are catering (迎合) tooverweight and weight conscious customers by dedicating areas where the skinny people are notallowed.
There are even gyms or programs that require members to be at least 50 pounds overweight toparticipate.
Trainers recommend functional fitness as a practical goal, rather than six-pack abs(六块腹肌) . (79) They often use text messages to stay in touch with customers.Often at these specialized gyms, the trainers are overweight themselves, or working ontheir own weight goals, and this can help those people with anxiety caused by poor body image.The equipment has been designed for use by larger people. Wider seats, more cushioning, nomirrors, and tinted (有色的) windows for privacy, are all important changes.
(80) Hopefully these types of gyms will successfully grow in numbers in the future. Theidea is a very simple and potentially
popular one. If it helps those of us who are bigger exercisemore and improve our fitness level, it' s a step in the right direction.
