jogging in-place station

English to Chinese Social Sciences Sports / Fitness / Recreation Healthier Single
More time-strapped single parents can get moving by sneaking exercise into a family activity. Shirley Archer, the newly named IDEA Fitness Instructor of the Year and author of Fitness 9 to 5, suggests a group bike ride. Or, like Archer, you can get creative and patch together a circuit training program in your backyard. Hers consists of pool tethers, a jump rope, hand weights, an exercise bike, a {jogging in-place station} and a mat or stability ball for abdominal crunches. Archer's stepchildren, ages 7, 12 and 15, use it frequently.

跑步机

虽然跑步机一般说Runner Machine,但 jogging in-place station 在这儿十有八九是指跑步机,因为这儿应该是指健身器材。只是这种说法在英语中真的不大常用,准确些也可叫(原地)慢跑机。

Thank you so much!
disagree Dominic J Tan : Jogging in-place station is not the same as running machine. Jason Ma explanation or reference to 原地跑步 is correct, and station is just a simple reference to a "place" or "location" in the house or backyard.

Thank you, maybe you are right, but it's obviously refered to an appliance other than an action of movement here.谢谢您的回复,也许你们说得对,但问题是这儿明显应该是一种器材,而非对一种动作的描述。具体请看原文的并列成分。
