記住，握手要用力

一項研究表明：握手有力的人更聰明，記憶力也更好。

Researchers say muscular strength, measured by hand grip, is an indication of how healthy our brains are.

研究人員稱，通過握手測出的肌肉力量可以作為我們大腦健康狀況的指標。

The University of Manchester analysis of 475,397 people from across the UK found stronger people of all ages performed better in every test of brain function. That included reaction speed, problem solving and memory.

曼徹斯特大學(xué)對來自英國各地的475397名學(xué)生進行了分析，發(fā)現(xiàn)各年齡段更強壯的人在每項大腦功能測試中都表現(xiàn)得更好。測試包括反應(yīng)速度，解決問題和記憶力。

The results may prove useful for bosses to recruit staff, with the greeting handshake a tell-tale sign of braininess.

研究結(jié)果可能會對老板招聘員工有用，因為問候式握手可以預(yù)示聰明。

The team now wants to establish if trips to the gym or lifting weights at home can improve brain power.

研究團隊現(xiàn)在想要確定，去健身房或者在家里舉重能否提高腦力。

Study leader Dr. Joseph Firth said: “We can see there is a clear connection between muscular strength and brain health.”

研究負責人約瑟夫.弗斯博士說:“我們可以看到肌肉力量和大腦健康之間有著明顯的聯(lián)系。”

“What we need now are more studies to test if we can actually make our brains healthier by doing things which make our muscles stronger — such as weight training.”

“現(xiàn)在我們需要更多的研究來測試能否通過做一些讓肌肉更強壯的事情，比如舉重訓(xùn)練，讓大腦更健康。”
