李发彬“金鸡独立”勇夺举重金牌

在7月25日的男子举重61公斤级比赛中，中国运动员李发彬勇夺金牌。
 

 

值得一提的是，李发彬不仅打破了奥运会纪录，还在比赛现场举着166公斤的杠铃上演了一幕令人惊心动魄的“金鸡独立”。

 

这一惊人站姿显然也震撼到了外媒，相关报道都以此做文章。

 

看看他们的标题：

 

雅虎体育：中国举重运动员李发彬天赋异禀，以震古烁今的单脚独立姿势赢得金牌

 

南华早报：中国再夺一金，“金鸡独立”举重运动员李发彬精彩表现打破纪录

 

可以看到，外媒除了说“one-legged lift”（单脚举重），还用到了一个动物来比喻这一站姿：flamingo¹，火烈鸟。

 

看看火烈鸟的日常站姿，是不是和我们的“金鸡独立”一模一样？除了腿长一点……

 

《南华早报》的外国记者仿佛把“金鸡独立”写成了李发彬的独门绝技：

 

The 28-year-old, known for his unique "flamingo" lifting technique in which he raises one leg for superior balance, scored a total of 313kg after impressive snatch and clean and jerk performances.

28岁的李发彬向来以“金鸡独立”的特殊举重技能闻名，他一脚悬空，平衡力超群，举起313公斤的总重量，抓举和挺举表现都令人惊叹。

 

《卫报》报道的画风比较幽默：

 

Li Fabin embraced his inner flamingo with a unique stance on the way to winning Olympic gold in weightlifting on Sunday. Just don't try it at home, the Chinese athlete warned.

25日，李发彬释放了内心的火烈鸟，以一个清奇站姿夺取了奥运举重金牌。不过这位中国运动员提醒道，切勿在家中模仿。

 

外媒详细描述了“金鸡独立”的惊险一幕：

 

Li stood on one leg while lifting 166kg – nearly three times his own body weight – with his right leg sticking out in his opening clean and jerk in the men's 61kg category.

李发彬在61公斤级比赛的挺举中，竟抬起右腿，单脚独立，举起了166公斤的杠铃，这可快接近他体重的3倍了。

 

Weightlifting fans nickname Li's move the "flamingo".

举重粉丝们称这一动作“金鸡独立”。

 

同时解释，他做这个动作不是炫技，而是为了平衡重心。今日美国说：

 

While the stance looked like he was flexing² his strength for the judges, Li was actually using the move to correct his balance, something he does when he feels like there is a chance the lift can go wrong.

虽然这个姿势看起来像是在对评委大秀实力，但李发彬实际上是在借此动作调整偏移的重心，他常常在感觉杠铃歪了的时候做这个动作。

 

美联社也说这是李发彬的“特殊技能”（a specialty³ ）：

 

The "flamingo" is a specialty for Li, who said it helps him correct his balance if a lift is in danger of going wrong.

金鸡独立是李发彬的一项特殊技能，他说这个动作能在杠铃将要失去平衡时帮自己调整重心。

 

这令人瞠目结舌的特技，其实是他的“基本操作”：

 

Li has pulled off the move before at competitions, including at the 2017 Asian championships. He said he's not a show off – calling himself a "low-profile person" – just one with an unusual talent for correcting a lift.

李发彬在之前的比赛中也展示过这个动作，其中就包括2017年的亚洲举重锦标赛。他说自己并非炫技，并称自己“很低调”，只是有这种不寻常的天赋来调整平衡。

 

外媒还如实转达了来自中国奥运冠军的劝诫：

 

“我核心力量比较强，所以能硬掰过来，大家可千万别学我啊。”

"I have very strong core strength and muscles," he said. "I know this move pleases the audience but I don't suggest people make the same move. It could provoke injury."

 

中国人会功夫这件事，解释不清了……
