“轮椅女孩”健美比赛夺冠！她这样谈自己的“逆袭之路”……

近日，坐在轮椅上的四川大学研二学生黄颖凭借健身训练视频走红网络，优美的肌肉线条和自信阳光的生活态度，获得了百万网友点赞好评。

Huang Ying, a second-year graduate student at Sichuan University who uses a wheelchair, went viral with her fitness training videos. Her well-defined muscles and confident, positive attitude have earned her millions of likes and widespread acclaim online.

10月中旬，她在上海参加的一次健身健美比赛中，获得女子轮椅组第一名。在接受世纪君的专访时，她分享了自己关于比赛和未来道路的想法。

In mid-October, Huang went to Shanghai to participate in a bodybuilding competition and won first place in the women's wheelchair category.

谈到为什么参加健美比赛，黄颖表示，“我想通过参加一些赛事，让残障朋友们看到，他们也可以通过运动和锻炼来展示自己。”

I hope that through competing in these events, I can show other people with disabilities that they too can express themselves through sports and exercise.

重启人生：

轮椅上的健身之路

据中新网报道，黄颖在两年前因为车祸造成了高位截瘫，她也经历过情绪的崩溃，但不向命运屈服的性格让她逐渐走出伤痛的阴霾。

In a previous interview, Huang Ying shared that a car accident two years ago left her with a spinal cord injury. She went through emotional turmoil, but her refusal to succumb to fate gradually helped her emerge from the shadows of trauma.

黄颖说，家人和朋友，甚至是身边的小狗，都给予了她很大的帮助，一点一点把她破碎的情绪捡起来，然后又把她变成一个更加完整的自己。

She said her family, friends, and even her dog provided tremendous support, slowly piecing her broken spirit back together and helping her become a more complete version of herself.

“我是今年过年的时候开始重新健身的。坐轮椅只是一个行动方式的改变，我以前喜欢健身，那么我现在还是可以健身。”

I started working out again around the Chinese New Year this year. Using a wheelchair is simply a different way of moving. I loved fitness before, and that hasn't changed.

谈及坐轮椅健身的困难，黄颖直言最大的坎儿还是心里那道关：“今年重新开始健身的时候，我发现自己只能推2.5公斤或者是5公斤，现在完全不及之前的十分之一或是五分之一。”

The biggest challenge is probably the psychological one. For example, the amount I could push or pull before is now less than one-tenth or one-fifth of what it was. When I started working out again this year, I found I could only lift 2.5 kilograms or 5 kilograms. It feels like starting from zero.

“从心态上来讲会更难一点，还是需要去克服，慢慢适应和调节。”

Mentally, it's a bit more challenging. I still need to overcome it, and slowly adapt and adjust.

轮椅日常：

社会上的“无障碍设施”需哪些改进？

说起社会各个场景下，“无障碍”设计还有哪些可以改进的地方，黄颖提到了健身房：“像健身房的话，一些器械它们会比较高，就是坐着的话够不到。”

In places like gyms, some equipment is positioned too high for someone in a wheelchair to reach.

而对于一些商场或者广场，黄颖表示，进去之前，可能会遇到石墩或者是路障。

“这个设计的最开始只是说想要去防止电瓶车，或者是自行车进入到这个里面；但是同时也把轮椅使用者或者婴幼儿推车，阻隔在了外面。”

Sometimes, before entering a public space, like a plaza or a shopping mall, we encounter stone posts or other barriers. The initial design was probably just to prevent electric bikes or bicycles from entering, but it also ends up blocking wheelchair users and people with strollers.

此外，“无障碍设施”的一些斜坡设计，也让她有些头疼：“生活中有些地方，就算是有斜坡，但是那个坡度比较陡。我们自己推，也是会比较危险的——就是很容易后仰。”

In daily life, some places have ramps, but they're often too steep. It's risky to go up them by ourselves — it's easy to tip over backwards.

她觉得，社会上的“无障碍”设施还有很大的进步空间。

对于那些处于困境的人

她说……

在与世纪君对话的最后，黄颖鼓励那些仍在困境中挣扎的人：“我们不要一直纠结于，过去已经发生的事情，以及我们已经失去的东西。我们把硬币的另一面翻过来，我们可能会看到一个更强大的、更好的自己。”

What I want to say is, we shouldn't keep dwelling on things that have already happened and what we have lost. If we flip the coin over, we might see a stronger, better version of ourselves.

“我们要向前走，曙光就在前方的。只是说我们需要走的这个时间，可能会比较长。加油！我们一定都会越来越好的！”
