The workout regime at F45 Training is designed to challenge the body, but also seems to toughen the mind. Every day, tens of thousands of fitness enthusiasts in cities from Anchorage, Alaska, to Johannesburg descend on identically laid-out gyms where, for 45 excruciating minutes, they tackle a circuit of high-intensity exercises that burn calories and build muscle. “When you leave this studio,” the Hollywood movie star Mark Wahlberg said after a recent pre-dawn session, “you feel like you can accomplish anything.”
F45訓練的健身方法是為了挑戰身體,但似乎也能鍛煉心智。每天,數以萬計的健身愛好者從阿拉斯加的安克雷奇(Anchorage)到約翰內斯堡(Johannesburg),來到布局相同的健身房,在那里進行45分鐘令人痛苦的高強度運動,燃燒卡路里,增強肌肉。“當你離開這間工作室的時候,”好萊塢電影明星馬克·沃爾伯格(Mark Wahlberg)在最近一次黎明前的訓練結束后說,“你會覺得自己可以完成任何事情。”
