Health and body consciousness is becoming more prevalent. Have you been checking your muscle tone after your attempts at "working out"? Is having a powerful and beautiful body becoming more and more equated with power and success in life?

I recently looked up the Chinese word for "strong", 强 (強,彊) [qiáng] in the (成语) Chengyu Dictionary of Chinese Idioms at Chinese-Tools.com (which you can find on the LearnchineseOK.com page on the top 20 free online Chinese dictionaries) and found the idiomatic phrase "shēn qiáng lì zhuàng" 身强力壮, 身 - body, 强 - strong, 力 - power, 壮 - strong. So you could apply the phrase whenever you need to describe a "strong power strong body", that is, a strong powerful body.

The photo above is an example of the way "shēn qiáng lì zhuàng" 身强力壮 is used to describe a strong powerful body. That guy thinks he has a "shēn qiáng lì zhuàng" because that's the title he's given the photo... A little scrawny perhaps?
