【我的故事my story】《Muscle》|林颖昭 Amelin |

      Muscle. We all have muscles, yes? We consciously exercise and building them when we talk about sports, and the walking five kilometres everyday, the jogging, the swimming and the gardening, maybe. To let us sweat and have a more healthy body, to live a longer life, to stay away from the scary diseases, for example. 

      But, speaking about building muscles and keeping a fit body is sometimes tedious and energy consuming. How about, say, building muscles and keep our bodies fit without having to do the hard-core sports or reminding ourselves every minute to do the difficult yoga and cross fit? Because we just need to pay attention to our muscles, that’s all. Communicate with our body no matter it was the fat or the muscles ( sounds eerie), because we are actually using them all the waking time of our whole lives, we just do not pay attention to them, do we? 

      We forget to stretch them, shake them, squeeze some strength out of them. Kick it, punch it, jump it, swing it, pull it, push it, wiggle it, shuffle it, jerk it, compress it, whatever... Yes, movements that delight our nerves, our brain receiver, our blood, our skin, that make our beautiful face flush a little red. Since when we do not enjoy to walk anymore, to be out of breath just a bit , using our body to make ourselves feel alive? So, shake it up! 

      Do not complicate health and sport. It’s just some movements and dancing to the music? Just like kids, remember when you were kids, you just love to keep moving around All the time! *And don’t pamper your backbones when you sit or stand, keep it straight !
