  look at the word ‘per’. can you guess the meaning of it? we often use the word together with words such as ‘day’, ‘week’ or ‘hour’. we can use this word in the sentence: the car can travel at 79 miles per hour. ‘per hour’ means ‘every hour’ or ‘an hour’. from this, we know that ‘per day’ means ‘every day’ or ‘a day’.  after reading the sentence ‘sports massages help to make muscles…’ can you guess the meaning of the word ‘massage’? here is another sentence: ‘she gave me a back massage to help ease the pain.’ what do you think ‘massage’ mean? (‘massage’ means ‘the action of rubbing or pressing part of one’s body’.)2. now please listen to the recording and complete the training schedule individually, and then check your answers in pairs to see if you got the same answers.tapescript coach: hi! how are you today?athlete: i feel a bit tired.coach: well, i want to talk to you about the training you need to do for the inter–schools sports competition. you must make a few changes. at the moment you’re only doing an hour of training per day, right?athlete: yes.coach: you need to increase that to two hours a day.athlete: two hours?! what will i do during the extra hour every day?coach: you’ll have to do some strength-building exercises twice a week.athlete: what does that mean?coach: strength training is doing exercises with weights, in a gym.athlete: ok, that’s not too bad. what else?coach: you ought to have a sports massage every week.athlete: that sounds more like it! how will the massages help me? will they make my muscles more flexible?coach: not necessarily more flexible, but certainly more relaxed. you also have to do flexibility and balance training three times a week.athlete: does that mean running and working out in the gym?coach: no, it means exercise such as yoga. it helps you focus your mind and train your body.athlete: it sounds tiring!coach: yes, but you do get eight hours of sleep every night. now, about your diet…athlete: so what should i eat?coach: first of all, lots of grains. that means things like rice and cereal.and you can only eat white meat, such as chicken and fish. red meat is not allowed.athlete: what? i love fast food. does that mean i can’t eat hamburgers any more?coach: i’m afraid so.athlete: oh, no! and pizza?coach: no, you shouldn’t eat that either. but you must eat three servings of vegetables per day and for servings of fruit.athlete: okay, i can do that. and what should i drink?
