進入《中英對照讀新聞》Dutch gym to introduce "Naked Sunday" 荷蘭健身房將引進「裸體星期天」
◎俞智敏
Self-conscious about what you wear while working out? A Dutch gym plans to introduce "Naked Sunday" for people who like to huff and puff in the buff.
你很在意自己健身時的穿著嗎？荷蘭一家健身房打算引進「裸體星期天」，好吸引喜歡光著身體運動得氣喘吁吁的顧客。
Patrick de Man, owner of Fitworld gym in the town of Heteren, said he got the idea in part from two of his customers who are avid nudists.
赫特倫市「健美世界」健身房老闆德曼表示，他之所以會想到這個點子，是因為健身房有兩位客人本身就是狂熱的裸體主義者。
The 70,000-member Dutch Federation of Naturists was curious to see if Fitworld’s plan would work, spokesman Bernd Huiser said.
擁有7萬名成員的荷蘭自然主義者聯盟則對健美世界的計畫能否成功感到好奇，據該組織發言人胡依澤表示。
"We recently conducted a large survey among our members, and most prefer to exercise with their clothes on," he said. "The most popular activities （for nudists） are things you do outdoors, like walking on the beach, or swimming in a lake, or maybe gardening."
「我們最近針對成員進行了一項大規模調查，發現多數成員在運動時還是寧可穿著衣服，」他說。「最受（裸體主義者）歡迎的活動都是戶外活動，例如在沙灘上散步、在湖裡游泳，或者做園藝工作。」
De Man said nude exercisers would be required to put towels down on weight machines and to use disposable seat covers while riding bikes. All machines would be cleaned and disinfected afterward.
德曼表示，裸體運動者將會被要求在重量訓練器材上鋪上毛巾，在騎腳踏車時也必須使用可拋棄式的座墊罩。所有的器材事後都會經過清潔與消毒。
The first "Naked Sunday" is scheduled for March 4.
第一次的「裸體星期天」運動預定於3月4日舉行。
