A 70-year-old woman wins hearts with her energetic workouts on Douyin, He Qi reports in Shanghai.
一名70岁的女人通过在抖音上进行有力的锻炼而赢得了人们的赞誉。
Videos on the social networking platform Douyin－also know globally as TikTok－that show men and women with impeccable physiques working out or dispensing fitness tips are commonplace.
在社交网络平台抖音（也被称为TikTok）上的很多用户发布视频展示自己的肌肉或者传授健身秘诀。
Trying to stand out from the crowd amid the deluge of such videos can often be difficult, but a relatively new account, which has only been active since last year, has managed to do so easily.
在大量此类视频中试图脱颖而出通常很困难，但是去年一个活跃的较新的帐户却很容易做到这一点。
The fitness instructor behind this account is not a young woman with a slim, toned figure that would leave viewers green with envy.
这个帐户背后的健身教练并不是一个让观众羡慕不已的苗条，健美的身材的年轻女子。
The star here is 70-year-old Chen Jifang, a Shanghai resident with 3 million likes on her Douyin videos. She was once even featured on a reality show on China Central Television.
这里的明星是70岁的陈继芳，她是上海居民，在她的抖音视频中有300万个赞。她甚至曾在中央电视台的真人秀节目中露面。
According to her trainer, who helped to manage the Douyin account, Chen attracted more than 400,000 followers within just a few months.
据她的教练（曾帮助管理抖音帐户）称，陈在短短几个月内吸引了40万名追随者。
"The main group that I wanted to encourage was people ages 30 to 50," says Chen.
“我想鼓励的主要人群是30至50岁的人，” 陈说。
"I think they will be motivated to work out in the gym after seeing that a granny like me can. The message I want to convey is that it is never too late to pursue good health."
“我认为在看到像我这样的老太后，他们会被激励去健身房锻炼。我要传达的信息是，追求健康永远不会太晚。”
For Chen, her passion for exercising was born out of a need instead of desire to become famous.
对于陈来说，她对运动的热情源于需要而不是渴望成名。
According to Chen, her health had been poor since she was a child. She even had to give up her job after giving birth to her daughter because her health was severely affected by the pregnancy.
据陈说，她从小就身体不好。她甚至在生完女儿后就不得不放弃工作，因为怀孕严重影响了她的健康。
"In the past, whenever I felt uncomfortable, I would lie at home for an entire day," says Chen, who used to be a saleswoman in a local food company before retirement.
“过去，每当我感到不舒服时，我都会躺在家里整天，”陈说。
