UK model goes to gym for the first time as an amputee 英國模特截肢后首次獨自去健身房鍛煉
Sian Green
"I might be confident in a lot of other areas in my life, but in this I'm not."
莎恩·格林
“我可能在生活中的其它方面都很自信,但在這方面卻不行?!?/p>
Sian Green has set herself the target to go to the gym independently for the first time since having her leg amputated.
莎恩·格林給自己設定了獨自去健身房鍛煉的目標,在她的左腿被截肢后,她一直未能獨自前往健身房。
"I was in New York in 2013 with my friend. You know, we were just walking, ?enjoying the sights. A cyclist came on to the pavement and a taxi driver followed him. He hit the cyclist and then he hit me severing off my left leg below the knee. The fact that I get to wave that flag for body positivity is everything to me."
“2013年,我和朋友在紐約。我們當時只是在散步、看風景。一個騎自行車的人騎到了人行道上,一輛出租車跟在他后面。出租車司機先是撞上了騎自行車的人,然后又撞到了我,把我的左腿從膝蓋以下全部壓斷了。我能夠倡導人們積極地看待自己的身體,這對我來說意義重大?!?/p>
Sian is a model, motivational speaker and content creator.
莎恩是一名模特、勵志演說家和內容創作者。
"When I'm modelling, I feel amazing. I feel really glamorous. I feel just really powerful. And knowing that I'm just owning everything about my body whilst doing it is amazing."
“當我從事模特工作的時候,我感覺棒極了。我覺得自己很迷人。我覺得自己很強大。在做模特時,我知道我可以接受自己身體的一切,這真的很棒?!?/p>
To help her confidence, Sian practised exercises in a public space with a personal trainer.
為了增強自信,莎恩在一位私人教練的陪同下在公共場所鍛煉身體。
"I thought Tyler was an absolute breath of fresh air. Especially having a limb difference and being a PT [personal trainer], you know, it really gave me that inspiration I needed."
“泰勒宛如一股清風,給我注入了活力。特別是我們的肢體情況不同,而且他是一名私人教練。和他一起訓練激勵了我勇敢向前。”
She was also shown how to use the equipment in a gym before going alone.
在獨自去健身房之前,莎恩還學習了如何使用健身房里的器材。
"I feel like I'm walking into a bit of a lion's den. I think it's very common to feel that way about going into the gym, even if you don't have a disability."
“我感覺自己走入了一個虎穴。好像大家去健身房都會有這種感覺,即使你沒有殘疾也是如此?!?/p>
This is the moment Sian entered a gym on her own for the first time since losing ?her leg in an accident.
這是莎恩在事故中失去左腿后第一次獨自進入健身房的一刻。
"Hey, how are you? I feel OK. That's really hard. I have finally done it. I have been to the gym without anyone around me, without my husband, without my friend, any assistance, anything and I feel great. I feel really great."
“你好嗎?我還好。這個器材真的很難。我終于做到了。我獨自一人去了健身房鍛煉,身邊沒有任何人陪伴,沒有我丈夫,沒有我朋友,沒有任何幫助,我感覺很棒。我感覺好極了?!?/p>
