A new research study suggests that just thinking of exercising can have the same effects as actually hitting the gym, officials say.

官方称，一项新的研究表明，只是考虑锻炼可以产生与实际上击中健身房相同的效果。

A recent study published in the Journal of Neurophysiology found that simply imagining exercise can tone muscle, delay atrophy, and even make your muscles stronger.

最近发表在“神经生理学杂志”上的一项研究发现，简单地想象运动可以调节肌肉，延缓萎缩，甚至可以使你的肌肉更强壮。 

Researchers at Ohio University, according to the Breitbart News Network, conducted an experiment using two sets of 'healthy individuals.'

据Breitbart新闻网称，俄亥俄大学的研究人员使用两组“健康人”进行了一项实验。 

The researchers wrapped the wrists of one of the sets in a cast and gave them instructions to sit still for 11 minutes, five days a week, for four weeks, and 'perform mental imagery of strong muscle contractions,' -- or, imagine exercising.

研究人员将其中一组的手腕包裹在一个演员阵容中，并给他们指示静坐11分钟，每周五天，持续四周，并“进行强烈肌肉收缩的心理图像” - 或者，想象一下锻炼。 

The other set were not given any instruction.

另一组没有给出任何指示。 

The results illustrated that the body and mind are more intertwined than we though.

结果表明，身体和心灵比我们更加交织在一起。 

At the end of the four weeks, the participants who engaged in the 'mental exercise' were twice as strong as those who didn't, Breitbart reports.

Breitbart报道，在四周结束时，参与“心理锻炼”的参与者的强度是没有参加过精神锻炼的参与者的两倍。 

Additionally, those participants had a stronger brain because the exercises created stronger neuromuscular pathways.

此外，这些参与者的大脑更强，因为这些锻炼产生了更强的神经肌肉通路。
