Constance Grady: 过去,女性健身的目的是为了尽可能地瘦,社会对女性的身体有着严格的规训。但现在,随着卡戴珊家族的兴起和身体积极性运动的推广,人们开始接受更强调曲线美的身材理想,并意识到健康比瘦更重要。力量训练逐渐成为一种新的健身趋势,凯西·约翰斯顿等人的出现也推动了这一趋势的发展。然而,我们仍然需要警惕,不要让力量训练变成另一种形式的身体规训,而是要真正关注自己的感受,与自己的身体建立联系。 Casey Johnston: 我开始举重是因为我戒酒了,我想做一个引体向上。在举重的过程中,我学会了关注自己的感受,这帮助我重建了与自己身体的联系。我曾经认为举重是男人的运动,但后来我发现举重可以给我带来力量和自信。我故意增重是为了举起更多的重量,这让我感到非常强大。举重对我来说是一种工具,它可以帮助我更好地了解自己,并与自己的身体建立联系。我希望更多的女性能够尝试举重,并从中受益。 Jan Todd: 我和男友一起去健身房,当时没想过要成为运动员。当时女性练肌肉被认为是不合适的,但我觉得我能行。
