Working out at work
CNN's Judy Fortin has advice for busy workers who don't have time for the gym.
精听建议：
先完整地把一条新闻听一到三遍，争取掌握大意。然后，一句一句精听，力争每句话都听明白。遇到实在不懂的地方，再听写。
下面的文本材料中空缺部分里面要填的词都很简单，不过是一些值得注意的连读或者典型的美式发音哦，有些语速比较快。试试看，你能不能全部写对？
（参考文本，欢迎指出错误^^）
Clint Padgett works up to 80 hours a week, he doesn’t take many breaks and he has limited time to exercise. So he’s hired personal trainer Robert Dothard to give him a ___(1)___ in his office.
“Hey, Robert.” The routine starts with squats, using the chair at Clint’s desk. “Come down, barely tap, we are protecting your knees.” “How long can I rest in the chair?” “No, ___(2)___ just a nanosecond.”
That same chair gives Clint support while he does ___(3)___leg extensions. “Keep that knee right there, watch your pacing, nice and slow.” Clint’s desk doubles as a prop for push-ups, “Let's do four more”, and tricep curls. “Breathing deep, getting a full range of motion.” And finally, karate kicks.
Dothard ends the session with exercises that help tone arm muscles. “Hey, man, I will take that.” “Thank you.” “Yeah, you got it.” The workout takes ___(4)___an hour.
Not only has Clint saved time in traveling to a gym, but he's helped reduce his stress levels. “After the workout, I am a lot more relaxed, a lot more calm, and I am able to be ___(5)___what's coming up next.” More work, for today’s Health Minute, I’m Judy Fortin.
