In today’s lesson Andreia is really into working out, or at least watching others work out. Cassia, not so much. And even if you are not in perfect shape, after today’s lesson you will at least be able to talk about it.

 A: Uau, olha aquele cara que está fazendo abdominais.
Wow, look at that guy who is doing sit-ups.
  B: Para Andréia, você sempre está olhado os homens. É uma doença isso, viu?
Stop it Andreia, you are always looking at men. It’s a sickness, you know?
  A: Não Cássia, é que eu aprecio o corpo de quem malha, saradão.
No Cassia, I just appreciate the bodies of those who work out.
  B: "Aprecia o corpo de quem malha", não vem com essa não.
“You appreciate the bodies of those who work out”, please don’t give me that.
  A: Não, olha pra aquele na barra, aquele ali, você não acha legal ver alguém com esses músculos?
No, look at that guy at the barbells, don’t you think it’s cool to see someone with those muscles?
  B: Não, eu só penso em esteroides e suplementos artificiais.
No, I just think of steroids and artificial supplements.
  A: Bom, eu acho lindo.
Well, I think it’s beautiful.
  B: E eu acho que não é nada natural.
And I think it is not natural.
