科学美国人60秒 SSS 吃零食须等价训练

Super Bowl Sunday is almost here and there’s one question on everyone’s mind: How can I tackle a plate of chicken wings without adding yardage to my end zone?
超级碗星期天马上就要来临了,每一个人的心头都有这样一个问题:我怎样能够既吃掉一盘鸡翅,同时呢,由不让我体重加码呢?
Well, Charles Platkin is the director of the New York City Food Policy Center at Hunter College. And he thinks that to make smarter, more splurge-worthy snacking choices we should consider what it would take to burn off the calories we take in.
查尔斯·普特拉金是亨特学院纽约市粮食政策中心的负责人。他认为,我们选择零食更聪明、更加超值的办法是考虑一下若想消耗掉这些零食产生的卡路里,我们需要做些什么。
To that end, Platkin has come up exercise equivalents for some of our favorite couch-side canapes and other nibbles 1.
对此,普特拉金提出了对于我们最喜爱吃的烤面包以及其他一些小菜,消耗其所产生的卡路里的等价训练办法。
Let’s kick things off with a foot-long meatball sub. This marinara-soaked monster, which weighs in at around 900 calories, would take more than an hour-and-a-half of running up and down the stadium steps to work off. And three pieces of KFC at 740 calories would take some 680 touchdown dances. Almost certainly leading to a celebration penalty.
让我们从肉丸子开始吧。约含有900卡路里的海员沙司需要在体育场的台阶上上下来回跑一个半小时,才能消耗所获得的热量。三块肯德基约含有740卡路里,需要进行680下的触地跳舞。这几乎是一种处罚式的庆祝啊.
A single tortilla chip, a mere 2 20 calories, with a scoop 3 of seven-layer dip, another 70 calories, would require a solid 25 minutes of boogying down to Lady Gaga!
一个墨西哥玉米片,只有20卡路里,再加上一勺子7层蘸酱,70卡路里,消耗这些能量需要坚持跳25分钟的Lady Gaga摇滚舞蹈。
Even two handfuls of Chex Mix, which racks up a surprising 280 calories, calls for 30 minutes of jumping up and down after your team scores. And a 450-calorie slice of pizza? Do the wave 2,194 times. But you could get called for interference—by others trying to see the TV.
即使两把Chex Mix的薯片,能量竟也有280卡路里,消耗其中的能量,需要在你的队伍获胜之后,上下跳跃30分钟。但是,可能因为别人要看电视,而你就不用跳了。
Now, if you’re still thinking about piling on those wings, each one weighs in at a hefty 95 calories. Add blue cheese dip and 10 wings can hit 1,400 calories. Which would take 149 trips up and down the field to run off.
现在,如果你仍在考虑吃一大堆的鸡翅,每一个鸡翅约含高达95卡路里。蘸上蓝纹奶酪,吃10个鸡翅,那么能量高达1400卡路里,这需要围绕赛场跑149次。
But before conceding defeat, Platkin does offer some pointers to help you beat the Super Bowl spread. Stock up on popcorn 4, and skip the butter. Drizzle 5 hot sauce on the wings instead of dollops of dip. And do not huddle 6 with your snacks—keep them far enough away so that getting at them makes you put your backfield in motion.
但是,在承认失败之前,普特拉金为我们提供了一些指南在消磨超级碗的时间。多吃爆米花,不吃黄油。在鸡翅上撒上星星酱,而不涂抹厚厚的一层。不要和那些零食溺在一起——把零食放得远远的:如果想要去拿零食,需要你的后卫出场。
