So if you're one of those people who hasn't found the perfect physical activity yet - here are some things to think about which might help you make the right decision for you.

所以，如果你是那些还没有找到完美运动活动的人中的一个，有一些可以帮助你做出正确决定的事情可以考虑考虑。

The first question to ask yourself is whether you would enjoy training in a gym.

第一个需要问自己的问题就是你是否享受在健身房锻炼。

Many people are put off by the idea of having to fit a visit to the gym into their busy day - you often have to go very early or late as some gyms can get very crowded.

很多人都被这样的想法阻挡：在繁忙的一天去健身房锻炼，因为有些健身房会很拥挤，往往要去得很早或很晚。

But with regular training you'll see a big difference in a relatively short space of time.

但是通过定期的训练，你会在相对短的时间内看到很大的变化。

Running has become incredibly popular in recent years.

近年来，跑步变得非常流行。

That's probably got a lot to do with the fact that it's a very accessible form of exercise - anyone can run - even if you can only run a few metres to begin with.

这很可能和以下事实有很大关系：这是一种非常容易开展的运动形式。任何人都可以跑步，即使一开始你只能跑几米。

But make sure you get the right shoes - it's worth investing in a high quality pair and they don't come cheap.

但是要确保你买了合适的鞋子，买一双贵的鞋子是值得的，它们的价格也不便宜。

Another great thing about running is that you can do it at any time of day or night - the only thing that may stop you is snow and ice.

跑步的另一个优势是你可以在白天或晚上的任何时候进行，唯一可以阻止你的是雪和冰。

Swimming is another really good way to build fitness.

游泳是另一种健身的好方法。

What attracts many people is that you can swim in an indoor pool at any time of year.

可以在一年中的任何时候在室内游泳池游泳这一点是非常吸引人的。

On the other hand, it can be quite boring or solitary - it's hard to chat to people while you're swimming lengths.

另一方面，这可能是非常无聊或孤独的，因为当你游泳时，你很难和别人聊天。

Cycling has become almost as popular as running in recent years.

骑自行车已经成为近年来最流行的运动。

That's probably because as well as improving their fitness, many people say being out in the fresh air in a park or in the countryside can be fun, provided the conditions are right, of course - only fanatics go out in the wind and rain!

这可能是因为骑自行车除了能提高身体素质，许多人认为，只要条件合适，到公园或乡村去呼吸新鲜空气是很有趣的。当然，只有狂热爱好者才会在风雨中外出骑自行车！

Yoga is a good choice for those of you looking for exercise which focuses on developing both a healthy mind and body.

瑜伽对于那些寻找以追求身心健康为重点的锻炼方式的人来说是个很好的选择。

It's a good way of building strength and with the right instructor, there's less chance of hurting yourself than with other more active sports.

这是一个增强力量的好方法，和其它更激烈的运动比起来，在真正指导下的瑜伽的安全性更高，不容易受伤。

But don't expect to find it easy - it can be surprisingly challenging, especially for people who aren't very flexible.

但是不要期待它很容易，特别是对于那些不太灵活的人来说，它可能具有令人惊讶的挑战性。

Getting a personal trainer is a good way to start your fitness programme.

找一个私人教练是开始健身计划的好方法。

Obviously there can be significant costs involved.

显然，请私教并不便宜。

But if you've got someone there to encourage you and help you achieve your goals, you're less likely to give up.

但是如果你身边有人鼓励你，帮助你实现目标，你就不太可能放弃。

Make sure you get someone with a recognised qualification, though, or you could do yourself permanent damage.

不过，一定要找个具有认定资格的人，否则你可能会给自己造成永久性的伤害。
