1. Anatomical Terms: Bones and Muscles | 解剖学术语：骨骼与肌肉
Skeletal System: The body’s internal scaffolding made of bones that provides support, protects vital organs, and anchors muscles for movement. Think of ‘skeleton’ plus ‘system’ to remember it is your whole bone network.
骨骼系统：由骨骼组成的体内支架，提供支撑、保护重要器官并为肌肉提供运动支点。联想“skeleton（骨架）+ system（系统）”，即你全部的骨骼网络。
Cranium (Skull): The domed, bony case that encloses and shields the brain. Picture a ‘cranial helmet’ — cranium sounds like ‘cranial’ cavity inside your head.
颅骨：包围并保护大脑的穹顶状骨壳。想象一顶“颅骨头盔”——cranium 的发音接近头部的 ‘cranial’ 腔。
Vertebral Column (Spine): The stack of small bones called vertebrae that runs down your back, protecting the spinal cord and allowing you to stand upright. Remember ‘vertebrae’ are like ‘verte-bricks’ stacked in a column.
脊柱（脊椎）：一系列称为椎骨的小骨头沿背部排列，保护脊髓并让你直立。记忆 ‘vertebrae’ 就像一块块 ‘verte-bricks’（椎骨砖）叠成柱子。
Femur: The longest and strongest bone in the body, located in the upper leg. It’s your ‘thigh bone’, and femur rhymes with ‘fever’ — when you sprint, your femurs feel the heat.
股骨：人体最长最强壮的骨头，位于大腿。就是你的“大腿骨”，femur 与 fever 押韵——冲刺时股骨会发热。
Biceps and Triceps: The biceps muscle at the front of the upper arm bends the elbow; the triceps at the back straightens it. ‘Bi’ means two, ‘tri’ means three. Biceps has two heads, triceps has three.
肱二头肌与肱三头肌：上臂前侧的肱二头肌使肘部弯曲；后侧的肱三头肌使肘部伸直。‘Bi’ 意为二，‘tri’ 意为三。二头肌有两个肌头，三头肌有三个。
2. Joints and Movements | 关节与运动
Joint: The place where two or more bones meet. Joints allow movement and provide mechanical support. Think of them as the body’s hinges and pivots.
关节：两块或多块骨头相遇的部位。关节允许运动并提供力学支撑。把它们想成身体的合页与枢轴。
Synovial Joint: A freely movable joint containing synovial fluid, which lubricates the ends of bones. Most of your limb joints, like knees and shoulders, are synovial. ‘Synovial’ sounds like ‘si-no-vial’ — a little vial of oil inside.
滑膜关节：含有滑液的可自由活动关节，滑液润滑骨端。你四肢的大多数关节，如膝和肩，都是滑膜关节。‘Synovial’ 听上去像 ‘si-no-vial’，仿佛里面有个小油瓶。
Hinge Joint: A joint that allows movement in only one plane, like a door hinge. The knee and elbow are hinge joints — open and close.
铰链关节：只允许在一个平面上运动的关节，像门铰链。膝关节和肘关节是铰链关节——只做开合动作。
Ball and Socket Joint: A joint where a rounded head of one bone fits into a cup-shaped socket of another, allowing movement in many directions. The shoulder and hip are ball and socket joints. Imagine a ball turning in a holder.
球窝关节：一块骨头的球状头嵌入另一块骨头的杯状窝内，允许向多个方向运动。肩关节和髋关节是球窝关节。想象一个球在窝里转动。
Flexion and Extension: Flexion decreases the angle at a joint (bending); extension increases it (straightening). Think ‘flex’ to fold, ‘extend’ to stretch out.
屈曲和伸展：屈曲减小关节角度（弯曲）；伸展增大关节角度（伸直）。联想 ‘flex’ 折叠，’extend’ 伸长。

Artery, Vein, Capillary: Arteries carry oxygenated blood away from the heart (think ‘A’ for ‘away’). Veins carry deoxygenated blood back to the heart (think ‘Vein’ = ‘in’). Capillaries are tiny vessels where gas exchange occurs.
动脉、静脉、毛细血管：动脉将含氧血带离心脏（记 ‘A’ 为 ‘away’ 离开）。静脉将缺氧血送回心脏（’Vein’ 形似 ‘in’ 进入）。毛细血管是发生气体交换的微小血管。
Lungs and Diaphragm: The lungs are sponge-like organs that take in oxygen and expel carbon dioxide. The diaphragm is a dome-shaped muscle below the lungs that contracts and flattens to pull air in.
肺与膈肌：肺是海绵状器官，吸入氧气并排出二氧化碳。膈肌是肺下方的圆顶形肌肉，收缩变平使空气进入。
Inhalation and Exhalation: Inhalation is breathing in; exhalation is breathing out. When you inhale, diaphragm moves down; when you exhale, it relaxes up. Inhale — ‘in’; exhale — ‘exit’.
吸气和呼气：吸气是吸入空气；呼气是呼出空气。吸气时膈肌下降；呼气时膈肌放松上升。Inhale 记 ‘in’，exhale 记 ‘exit’。
Tidal Volume and Stroke Volume: Tidal volume is the amount of air moved in and out of the lungs per breath. Stroke volume is the amount of blood pumped by the heart per beat. ‘Tidal’ like the tide flowing in and out.
潮气量与每搏输出量：潮气量是每次呼吸进出肺部的空气量。每搏输出量是心脏每搏动一次泵出的血量。‘Tidal’ 如潮汐般进出。

超负荷：比平时更努力地训练以改善体适能。通过调整频率、强度或时间来实现。超负荷安全地突破极限。
Reversibility (R): Fitness gains are lost when training stops. ‘Use it or lose it.’ If you stop training, your improvements reverse.
可逆性：停止训练后，体适能的提高会消退。“用进废退”。若停止训练，进步就会逆转。
Tedium (T): Boredom from repetitive training. Vary your workouts to stay motivated. ‘Tedium’ sounds like ‘tedious’ — avoid the dull routine.
枯燥性：由重复训练引起的厌倦感。让练习多样化以保持积极性。‘Tedium’ 类似 ‘tedious’（乏味的）——避免单调套路。
FITT Principle: Frequency (how often), Intensity (how hard), Time (how long), Type (kind of exercise). Use FITT to apply overload safely. Remember: ‘FITT guides your overload’.
FITT 原则：频率（多常练）、强度（多努力）、时间（练多久）、类型（哪种运动）。用 FITT 安全地施加超负荷。记作“FITT指引你的超负荷”。
7. Methods of Training | 训练方法
Continuous Training: Steady exercise performed at a moderate intensity without rest, such as jogging or cycling for 20+ minutes. It builds cardiovascular endurance. ‘Continuous’ means non-stop.

热身：为运动进行逐渐的准备，提高心率，增加肌肉血流并改善活动范围。良好的热身包括提高脉搏和动态拉伸。
Pulse Raiser: Light aerobic activity at the start of a warm-up to increase heart rate gradually, such as jogging or skipping. It ‘raises your pulse’ gently.
提高脉搏运动：热身开始时进行的轻度有氧活动，如慢跑或跳绳，让心率慢慢上升。它轻柔地“提升脉搏”。
Dynamic Stretching: Controlled, sport-specific movements that take joints through their full range of motion, like leg swings and arm circles. Keep moving while stretching.
动态拉伸：受控的、运动专项的、让关节在全范围内活动的动作，如摆腿和绕臂。在拉伸中持续运动。
Cool-Down: A gradual reduction in exercise intensity to help the body return to resting state. It includes light jogging and static stretching to remove waste products.
整理运动：逐渐降低运动强度，帮助身体返回安静状态。包括慢跑和静态拉伸以清除代谢废物。
Static Stretching: Holding a stretch without movement, usually for 15–30 seconds, to improve flexibility and relax muscles. Stay still and lengthen the muscle.
静态拉伸：保持静止的拉伸，一般持续 15–30 秒，以提高柔韧性并放松肌肉。静止不动拉长肌肉。
10. Injury Prevention and Basic First Aid | 损伤预防与基本急救
Sprain: Injury to a ligament (tissue connecting bone to bone), often caused by twisting a joint. Ankle sprains are common. Ligament = ‘ligament’; sprain the supporting band.
扭伤（韧带伤）：韧带（连接骨与骨的组织）的损伤，常因关节扭转引起。踝关节扭伤很常见。韧带=’ligament’；扭伤支撑带。
Strain: Injury to a muscle or tendon (tissue connecting muscle to bone). Hamstring strains happen when muscles are overstretched. ‘Strain’ a muscle — like pulling too hard.
拉伤（肌肉或肌腱伤）：肌肉或肌腱（连接肌肉与骨的组织）的损伤。腘绳肌拉伤发生在肌肉过度抻拉时。‘Strain’肌肉——像用力过猛。
Fracture: A broken or cracked bone. It can be a simple closed fracture or a compound open one. Fracture = ‘break’ in bone integrity.
骨折：骨头断裂或破裂。可能是简单的闭合性骨折或复杂的开放性骨折。骨折即骨完整性“断开”。
R.I.C.E. Protocol: Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation — the immediate treatment for soft tissue injuries. Rest stops more damage, Ice reduces swelling, Compression limits fluid build-up, Elevation drains fluid away.
R.I.C.E. 原则：休息、冰敷、加压、抬高——软组织损伤的即时处理。休息防止进一步损伤，冰敷消肿，加压限制积液，抬高促进液体引流。
Overuse Injury: Damage caused by repetitive stress without adequate rest, such as shin splints or tennis elbow. Listen to your body and allow recovery. ‘Overuse’ = too much repetition.
过度使用损伤：因无足够休息的反复应力所造成的损伤，如胫骨疼痛或网球肘。倾听身体并允许恢复。‘Overuse’就是过度重复。
