Okay today's expression I love it it is a jock.
When I was young, I was a very good runner.
I was a competitive runner, the 5K, actually the 3200 meter race, the 5K, five kilometers and 10K, 10 kilometer race were my best races.
I also enjoyed triathlons and cycling.
I loved it very much.
But I wasn't a jock.
I was never really a jock.
today's expression is a jock and in America when we say a jock, j -o -c -k, we think of a man a boy, oh it could be a girl, but usually a boy who is very physically active and physically fit and they like sports however, yes I was a jock I was a runner I was a jock but when people imagine a jock they really usually don't imagine a runner they imagine a football player maybe even a baseball player a hockey player bigger guys guys that weigh a lot that have lots of big muscles these guys are jocks also the image of a jock unfortunately is a little bit lower IQ, and again, if we're talking about me,
obviously my IQ is very high, so...
are you laughing? Are you laughing at me?
Check out the dialogue!
Oh, you're all sweaty.
Yeah, just finished my ride.
Oh, and you were swimming this morning?
Yeah. I love working out.
Oh, wow. I didn't know you were a jock.
I think that's true, guys.
I think many women like men that, uh, that exercise, that workout.
You know, not too much.
You know, you don't want to you know be crazy about it.
But yeah guys who like a little bit of exercise Guys who take care of their body, you know physically fit men women like that But you don't have to be a jock Yeah, once again a jock it's a great word.
Were you a jock or are you a jock?
Do you got some good muscles?
Do you go to the gym and lift weights?
Do you like American football?
Do you like those physical sports where boom boom you're running into each other?
Yeah? Yeah, you're a jock in that case You are a jock Again, I'm a runner or I was a runner.
I like cycling. Can you call me a jock?
Yeah, sure you could call me a jock.
I appreciate that. I don't mind but Like I said most Americans when you say he's a jock you're gonna think they're gonna think muscles and they might think a little bit lower IQ not necessarily some of those jocks are really smart smarter than me absolutely smarter than me yeah but anyway it's a good word j -o -c -k -a jock if you're not a jock maybe you know if you're a dough boy you might want to Think about changing that dough to muscle.
Yeah, that's a good idea.
Stop being a doughboy, go back to being a jock.
You're never too late.
You are never too old to become a jock.
I have a friend who has no legs.
He was in the war, and he lost his legs, and he's a jock.
Before the war he was just skinny like me.
Now big guy, big muscles.
Yeah, you're never too late.
