we've all heard exercise is good for your physical and mental well-being. but a good workout can actually influence the mental well-being of others, too. because bosses who hit the gym tend to be less abusive to their employees. that's according to a study in the journal of business and psychology.

　　我们都知道运动有利于身体和精神健康。实际上，一个经常锻炼的人还可以影响他人的精神状态。因为经常去健身房的老板往往很少虐待他们的员工。这项研究发表在《商业和心理学》杂志上。

　　researchers asked 98 mba students who were also employed full-time to rate how their supervisors treated them, by responding to statements like "[my boss] puts me down in front of others." the researchers also had supervisors fill out a different survey, about their stress levels and weekly exercise. and, as the authors expected, the more stressed-out supervisors were, the more their employees felt belittled by them. but the employees felt better about bosses who exercised, whether it was yoga, cardio or weight lifting. and just one or two days a week did the trick.
