    A period of physical exercise that you do to make your body stronger or , especially as training for a sport.

    示範例句 · Example

    Leo does a short workout in the gym every morning before school.

    逐字里歐每天早上上學前在健身房做一段短短的訓練。

    workout 指的是「一段運動的時間」——有開始、有結束，通常是安排好的一次訓練，例如上健身房、跟著影片動三十分鐘。它可數，所以說 a workout、two workouts a week。跟 exercise 容易搞混：exercise 是「運動」這件事本身，通常不可數（I need more exercise）；workout 是「其中的一次」（I did a workout this morning）。這個字可以想成從 work out（把身體「操」出去）長出來的名詞，把那段流汗的時間整個包成一件事。

core核心畫面

One block of time in which you deliberately make your body work hard — running, lifting, or a class at the gym — and then stop. It has edges: it starts, it lasts an hour or so, it ends, and you come out of it tired on purpose. That is why you can count them (three workouts a week) and plan them, unlike the vague word 'exercise'.

可以想成一段有頭有尾、你刻意讓身體吃力的時間：換好衣服、跑步或重訓一小時、結束，然後帶著那種「累得剛剛好」的感覺走出去。重點在那個邊界——它是一「次」，所以可以數、可以排進行事曆：three workouts a week、a 30-minute workout。相對地 exercise 是不可數的、模糊的一整類事情。這個字由 work out（動詞：健身、鍛鍊）併成一個名詞，重音落在前面的 work。
